Reborn Again

I was walking up Avenue A this past Friday morning, when I saw the now-familiar Painting/Floor-Sanding sign, somewhat altered:

Somewhat altered.

I took a picture of it and added it to my Snapchat story with the caption: The meme that would not die is reborn.

I continued on my way, but then that evening, while walking down Avenue C, I saw an amazing preponderance of the very same signs, with the very same meme:

Same sign, same meme.

Another.

Yet another.

Which is why I find it strange that this sign looks the way it does:

Strange.

Is it some kind of a mistake?

      Thanks anonymous commenter! I'm familiar with the party's over insignia. Is it him doing this though? He told Gothamist or DNAInfo (one of them) that it wasn't him doing it.
