Times People Stopped To Read The Sign And Did Not Regret It
There are many ways to communicate with strangers and people in your life, but one of the most blatant is with a well-worded sign that gets your message across.
We've collected some of the best signs that people have encountered in their lives. From hilarious to downright ridiculous, these signs have something to say (and so do the people who created them).
Winnie-The-Faceless-Pooh Bear
In case it wasn't clear, a shop owner decided this teddy bear needed a sign to highlight that it is missing its face.
It seemed a lot less creepy without the weird "BEAR WITH NO FACE" sign.
The Cafe Syrups Are Not A Hand Sanitizer
Someone definitely screwed this up and tried to use the caramel flavor syrup as a hand sanitizer.
The cafe had to place a sign notifying customers that the pump was in fact a syrup and not a sanitizer. This is why we can't have nice things.
This One Is For Everyone Except The Flies
This greenhouse knew that their customers' curiosity could very well kill the fly trap display.
The sign warns any passerby, "If you are not a fly, please do not trigger the fly traps," but it continues, "If you are a fly, please ignore this message—but proceed with caution." Flies beware.
"Masks, Gloves, Stab Anyone Who Gets Closer Than 6 Feet"
Who knew that fencing was the "perfect COVID sport," other than this local fencing facility?
The advertisement is definitely going to target some anxious people who are dying to work out, even if it is in a full bodysuit with gloves, a mask, and a sword.
Is This Dentist For Or Against Teeth?
This dentist's office is not exactly selling their services when it comes to their billboard.
The toothless grin looks like a woman lost all her teeth after attending this particular dentist's office, leaving her completely unable to enjoy the Subway located right next door. What a nightmare.
Maze-Goers Be Warned
Corn mazes can be disorienting and kind of scary. They have even made movies about them.
Fortunately, the sign at the entrance of this maze is there to reassure people that a rescue team comes around on a weekly basis to recover any stragglers. The sign brags they can usually locate two-thirds of the lost.
Why Did The Chicken Cross The Road? We Still Don't Know But He Used His Designated Crossing
A father sent this photo to his son with the words "It finally happened." Not only is the chicken crossing the road, but there is a sign announcing his preferred arrival and departure spot.
We need to know what's on the other side of the road!
Squirrel Vs. Keith At The Library
Public libraries are still going strong in most places and this particular library is dealing with a lifelong foe—the resident squirrel.
Whoever Keith is has become the sworn nemesis of the squirrel lunch thief.
Whose Child Is This?!
A public plea for someone to get control of their child must have made a few people in the neighborhood laugh, but probably not this kid's parents.
The little peeper likes to use his mini telescope to peer into apartment windows which should definitely be dealt with sooner than later.
Closed Today Due To The State Of Everything
This closed sign says what most employees are feeling at this stage in the pandemic game.
The bookstore is closed due to the general nature of everything kind of going terribly wrong.
Redneck Trailer Bumper Sign
This driver took the classic bumper sticker to the next level with an entire homemade bumper sign.
The sign states that the trailer is "43 years old and shaped like a brick," urging other drivers to "GO AROUND" and watch for the finger because the horn is broken.
The Most Important Reason To Stay Out Of The Pool
You just know something bad happened in order for this sign to exist.
What looks like a public pool has a very pointed, very blunt warning for swimmers: Don't swim if you've got the runs.
Gooberville Is The Tiniest Place With A Town Sign
This idyllic little town probably has one stop sign, one sheriff, and one criminal.
Gooberville, population of 44, is not expanding or looking to develop. They are even considering cutting Tom from the town to make their population a more modest 43.
Utah Traffic Monitors Have A Sense Of Humor
This traffic sign hanging above a Utah interstate has all the sass of a driver who has simply had enough.
The lane is most certainly not a birthright, and it's called a merge for a reason.
Not Those Kind Of Signs
This girl technically got the right answer but she was taking the wrong test.
Her answer is technically correct. But it's more likely the instructor was looking for "slow-moving vehicle" or "loose gravel" signs.
Sushi Restaurant Can't Deal With TikTok Youth
Apparently this sushi restaurant has been struggling with an influx of TikTokers trying to get a BTS view of the restaurant by placing their phones on the conveyor belt.
The sign warns customers about the dangers of the conveyor belt if guests happen to try to slide their phone on for a ride.
Just Be Cool, Guys
It is difficult to imagine a world where the United States does not have a President sitting in the White House.
However, this Texas restaurant is asking people to think about the really hard questions -- who needs a President if everyone just promises to juts be cool?
This Notice Is Noticeably Confusing
It's very important to take notice of notices when you see them in public.
Unfortunately, this notice is a confusing sign about noting notices and making sure they are noted. We're lost.
Well, They're Not Wrong
Honestly, this restaurant has a point. The only time size really matters is when it comes to the size of a taco.
Because in the case of a taco, bigger is definitely better!
Well, That Took A Turn
This restaurant decided to go the funny route with their sign, making people think they didn't want hipster coming in and dining.
Well, if you read through the sign until the end, they're actually talking about hamsters!
Prices Have Been Pre-Haggled
This antique store has no time to be bothered by people trying to beat down their already lowered prices and this sign makes it clear, in the sweetest way possible.
"For your shopping convenience," the prices are as marked!
Mom And Dad Are Classy But Sassy
A Redditor shared this snap of their family's front lawn after their parents hopped on the graduation celebration trend to publicly shame them.
Dropping out of school is fine, but dropping out of Yale? Ouch, that's got to hurt the wallet (and maybe the pride).
Dogs Can Read This Sign Only
What a great sign made especially for good doggos!
Also, people in the neighborhood have reported multiple dogs stopping to read the sign and pick one of their favorite sticks for the road.
