The simplest things in life, like an amusing sign on the way home or at the animal hospital where you take your pet, can put a smile on your face and put some pep in your step. Some of these are hilarious by accident, while others were meant to be funny, but either way, they’re all ridiculous and hilarious enough that someone had to take a picture of them. We are so relieved that they did. You’ll be saying “thank you” to them before long, believe us.
This is probably the sign on this list that is the most dishonest, but it is also one of the ones that make you laugh the most. A garage displayed a sign that read “Girls, girls, girls” in a tiered format, similar to what you might see adorning the walls of a specific kind of club. On the other hand, right underneath it was written: “Just kidding, oil changes.” That’s one way to get potential customers interested in your product or service. On the other hand, it is also a way to leave them feeling extremely let down. Even so, given that you don’t typically find creative signs like this posted outside of garages, we’d probably pull in here to get an oil change.
Forced To Create A Sign
It is common knowledge that when you go out into nature for an activity such as camping or hiking, you should dig a hole and use that spot as a lavatory if you feel the need to do so. Nevertheless, it was reported that visitors to this park were causing disruptions by going between the enormous stone boulders. On top of that, nobody wants to be hiking down a trail and suddenly come across some human waste. Even the fact that they were forced to put up a sign in the first place is bemoaned by the sign.
It asks people to “Please do not poop in the rocks.” After that, there is a disclaimer that states, “We can’t believe we had to make this sign.” They sound extremely frustrated with the number of people using the trail.
Cats And Dogs
This sign could be the solution if you’re looking to boost foot traffic at your animal hospital or veterinary clinic. It states that having a dog helps prepare people for having children, whereas having a cat helps prepare parents for having teenagers. And while dogs are wonderful companions, it’s important to remember that they are essentially just large, clumsy babies at heart, which is one of the reasons we adore them so much. On the other hand, a completely different narrative applies to cats. They can be moody and unsocial, similar to how teenagers can be at times.
We are unable to determine whether the owner of the company or one of its employees was responsible for the creation of this sign; however, kudos should be given to whoever was responsible for it because it brilliantly illustrates the distinction between canines and felines.
Is It For Sale?
This jumbled-up collection of words was discovered by somebody who was out shopping for some furniture. It says, “Buy Bed, Get 1 Night Stand Free” in that order specifically. If you purchase a bed, we believe it to mean that you are entitled to a free nightstand in the form of a table. On the other hand, it is not difficult to conceive of an alternative meeting for these particular words.
You’ll have to figure this one out on your own. The implication is that they should not be publicizing that at all. Even though you have a general idea of what they are trying to convey, you still find it hilarious.
Who Said It Could Only Be Enjoyed During Happy Hour?
Restaurant signs are usually pretty dull. They might advertise their item of the day, a special, or the fact that they are looking for new employees. Nevertheless, this restaurant was successful in finding a way to attract people’s attention while also providing precisely what it was that they desired. The sign only contains the words “Soup of the day,” followed by the word “tequila.” It is a clever move considering that a significant number of patrons at a restaurant with the name “Little Mexico” are likely to be in the mood for cocktails that contain the specified component regardless.
When you have tequila, you don’t care about the quality of the food, do you? Of course, a sign like this doesn’t bode well for the quality of their food, but who cares, right?
It’s All Described in the Small Print
Coyotes have developed into a widespread problem across the United States. They are moving into the cities, and it is very difficult to get rid of them once they get there. It’s possible that someone working for the California Park Service was inspired by this to create this sign. When you first take a closer look and read the fine print on the sign, it appears to be the same as any other sign that warns people to stay away from wild animals. It instructs people to report to the authorities any sightings of a coyote “carrying a box marked ‘ACME.'”
There are multiple references to the Looney Tunes character Wile E. Coyote hidden throughout the legalese, including this one. Naturally, they list off a couple of additional “suspicious” activities, such as a coyote holding a “detour” sign or having a catapult.
They Should Have GOLF Balls in the Title Without a Doubt
Generally speaking, golf courses are not known for their humorous attitudes. When most people think of a golf course, the image that immediately pops into their head is that of a stuffy country club. On the other hand, as shown by this sign at the golf course, not all of them are like that. At the very top, it warns people about the coronavirus and then instructs them not to touch the balls of other players. After touching your balls, you should wash your hands!” We’ll leave it up to you to decide what to do with that information.
We are astonished that someone was able to sneak this sign management, but we are grateful that they did. When trying to get people to pay attention to virus precautions, you need to do so with a little bit of a sense of humor.
Accept the Terms and Conditions
When someone knocks on your door and you open it, only to find that they are trying to sell you an idea or a product, it is one of the few things that can be more annoying than that. It would appear that someone somewhere has devised a warning sign specifically for individuals such as those. People who disregard the sign will be charged fifty dollars per minute for the homeowner’s time. In addition to that, the fee must be paid in full before the event can take place. This person has considered every possibility.
Those who wish to promote a product, a religion, or a fundraising event are required to make a payment, according to the sign. On the other hand, we can’t help but feel sorry for anyone who lives in this house and wants to sell Girl Scout cookies to them.
A Lot Of Ambiguous Meanings
When it comes to owning and running your own business, you need to have a creative mindset, as demonstrated by this sign. Someone who owns a photo studio that also does framing and printing hung a sign in their business that said, “We can shoot your wife and frame your mother-in-law.” The sign was intended to attract potential customers. If this does not satisfy you, the sign also says, “We can hang them too!” They are, of course, referring to printing and framing services; however, this is meant to be a tongue-in-cheek approach to attracting people’s attention.
In all candor, the uniqueness of this sign alone might be enough to persuade us to buy something from them, even if it isn’t a particular picture of a person we care about.
Even the Pharmacy Has Its Share of Jokes
This sign, unlike the majority of the others on this list, did not appear to be written to be humorous in any way. Someone noticed a sign that was placed inside a pharmacy, and it says that the establishment is a “drug-free workplace.” The poster was spotted by that person.
Even though this is acceptable practice for the vast majority of workplaces, the only “legal” location to purchase substances is a pharmacy. Even though we know that whoever put up this sign meant to refer to illegal substances, it’s still pretty funny to see it posted in a pharmacy.
We Had No Idea At All
This sign may be the most inventive one so far. Someone hung a sign in a store above some wind chimes, and the sign described the history of the product that became so popular. It says, “Wind chimes are constructed from the skeletal remains of robots that attempted to overthrow us.” Display them prominently in front of your home as a caution to passersby. It’s not exactly lighthearted, but to tell you the truth, that’s exactly what makes it so hilarious and out of the blue.
Wind chimes are the one thing that, out of all the things that can be linked to a robot apocalypse, make the most sense. When we hear wind chimes from now on, we will remember this sign and think back to when we first saw it.
We Are Going To Stop Using The Term “Skunk”
If you find yourself working at a park, you should probably bring your sense of humor with you. This sign in the park advises visitors not to pet the “fart squirrels,” and it features an illustration of a skunk. We had never given it much thought before, but when you get right down to it, that’s pretty much all they are. Also, we were unaware that skunks will approach strangers and allow themselves to be petted if they get close enough.
Shouldn’t wild animals have a healthy respect and avoidance of humans by nature? This may be a persistent issue; if so, that would explain the hilarious sign as well as the reason why it was necessary in the first place.
This Restroom Sign Was Completely Crude Toward the Gentlemen
This is yet another helpful sign for parents as well as for establishments serving food. It just describes how to use the toilet correctly, but it does so with a sarcastic tone. Although this contains a lot of information, the first half of it reads as follows: “If you lift it… Put it down. If it runs out, replace it. If you don’t catch it, just wipe it away.
If you are finished, you should flush the toilet. If it has a stench, you should spray it.” These are, in general, sound rules; however, the second half of the sign is even more helpful. It instructs men to “stand closer; it may be shorter than you think” while telling women to “Please remain seated for the entire performance.” To put it mildly, this sign simply isn’t having any of it.
To Give You An Example
To make ourselves clear, we do not know for certain whether this sign was designed to appear in this manner, whether someone ran it over with a car, or whether it was struck by a plane. The sign itself has been completely run over by something, and it serves as a warning to people that there are aircraft flying at low altitudes in the vicinity. If it was a plane, then that’s pretty crazy because these things don’t reach heights higher than ten feet.
Having said that, something had to have hit it while it was moving pretty quickly because the metal sign did not bend when it was struck; rather, it just completely snapped at its base. And anyone who has ever attempted to steal a sign can attest to the fact that doing so is not an easy task. Our best guess is that the evidence points to it having been an airplane all along.
Everyone Enjoys A Clever Pun
If puns aren’t your thing, then you should probably pay extra attention to this sign because we guarantee that reading it will convert you into a pun fanatic. And if you have an existing fondness for puns, then you are very welcome. Someone took the time to write this sign for what appears to be a bar. On it is written, “Alcohol is not in my vodka vocabulary.” On the other hand, I looked it up on Whiskeypedia, and I discovered that if you drink too much, Tequila is probably the culprit.
That is impressive. However, despite the hilarious puns that are scattered throughout this sign, it is probably not the best practice for a bar to bring to the attention of its customers the fact that the alcohol that they are being served is likely to cause them to pass away at an earlier age.
It Appears That You Will Need to Perform a U-Turn
Driving behind large trucks on the interstate or highway can be perilous, particularly when the trucks are carrying cargo that has the potential to become dislodged and fly into the path of oncoming traffic. As a result of this, they typically have signs on the back that advise you to proceed with caution. However, because of two other trucks that pulled out in front of them while displaying contradictory signs, these drivers found themselves in a difficult situation.
The vehicle on the right has a sign that instructs drivers to “keep left,” while the vehicle on the left has a sign that advises drivers to “do not follow.” These drivers don’t have many options other than to slow down and wait for one of the trucks to pass the other and get back into the same lane as them. There isn’t much else they can do.
Something About This Is Different from the Others
Do you remember those tests you had to take in school where you had to choose the one answer that was different from the others? In any case, this is the thing that this sign brings to our minds. This establishment was required to hang an escalator safety sign, and among all the other information, they managed to include a peculiar regulation. On it is written, “No strollers. No running. There will be no dog grooming competitions. No heavy luggage”.
Have you been successful in catching that third one? As if anyone would even consider the possibility of grooming their dog competitively while riding the escalator. That is something that can only be done while you are traveling in an elevator, as everyone is aware.
Perhaps There Should Be A Literacy Night Every Night
We can only hope that this sign was intentionally written with these particular words. In that case, there is a possibility that some parents will soon be looking for new schools for their children. The sign posted at the school reads, “Literacy night.” Literacy Night is clearly what’s supposed to be written there. And if it was done on purpose, it’s a pretty funny joke if that was the case. In any case, we are confident that they will have a few more parents show up now than they would have had they simply spelled it correctly.
It’s possible that this was the point all along. We can’t say for certain, but if this is the case, it’s encouraging to see teachers and administrators thinking creatively about how to engage parents more than they typically would.
Genius Marketing
It appears that Mexican restaurants are very familiar with their regular clientele. The following is a sign that can be found in a Texas establishment known as El Arroyo: “Treat your mom to a margarita. It’s probably because of you that she keeps drinking.” It’s tough to argue with that line of reasoning, particularly if, like some other people, you were only planning on going to that place for the drinks to begin with. We do not doubt that their cuisine is delicious, but how could you possibly visit that establishment without ordering at least one margarita?
Some of the people who saw this sign were quick to point out that husbands should have been included on the list of reasons that people drink that was on the sign. But that’s just one more sign idea that we can save for another occasion.
Watch Out! Smartphone Zombies Are Approaching!
This is the sign for you if you are one of those people who can’t stand it when another person won’t take their eyes off of their phone, because it’s driving you crazy. Someone put a sign up in a neighborhood warning people to “beware of smartphone zombies.” The sign was hung by someone. It’s probably just asking motorists to exercise caution and keep an eye out for pedestrians who aren’t paying attention, but it’s funny all the same.
It is also an effective method for attracting the attention of motorists to the sign. If only they could find a way to stop people from becoming mesmerized by their phones while they are walking down the street. In a short amount of time, a sign similar to this one might appear on a street in your neighborhood.
With The Assistance of Google Translate
This article in particular features several humorous signs. We don’t know exactly where it is or why it even exists, but we’re happy that it does. The first sign that can be seen in the photo is an advisory to individuals that, if their belongings are stolen, they should contact the authorities immediately. However, the sign that is located in the back is probably our favorite. It says, “Avoid being a rude and unreasonable chicken.”
Whoever wrote that must have already had a lot of life experience by this point. Another person encourages people to exercise caution, stating that “the slippery are very crafty.” They most certainly are, they most certainly do.
He Never Stops Keeping an Eye on Us
If there was ever a time when you wanted to make someone feel uncomfortable and as though they are always being watched, all you have to do is put this sign up in your place. Essentially, it’s a sign that’s been designed to look like Jesus and bears the words “I saw that.” If you don’t have anywhere else to put it, it can even be hung up on your door for your convenience. After taking in all of this information, we have never before felt such an overwhelming sense of responsibility for our inaction.
It is also difficult not to imagine that this sign contains a miniature camera hidden away in one of its many recesses. It’s possible that the only way to make it better is to conceal a fake camera somewhere on this page using a miniature one.
Former Marker Kept Getting Stolen
Another example of government workers being forced to get creative in order to discourage citizens from engaging in certain behaviors is presented here. Since Colorado is one of only a few states in the United States to have legalized the sale of a particular plant that is cherished by many, it should not come as much of a surprise that mile marker 420 was frequently taken without permission. They decided to put up a mile marker that read “Mile 419.99” as a deterrent for people who might try to steal their sign and also to mark the location of the road.
On the other hand, if we are being completely honest, this is probably the only mile marker 419.99 in the entire country, so one would think that anyone who is looking for a sign that is truly one of a kind would be chomping at the bit to get their hands on this one.
Proper Grammar and Punctuation Are Very Important
On this list, there have already been a couple of signs that contain some grammatical errors; however, none of them are quite like this one. The sign is printed in black letters on a bright red background, and it reads, “Elephants, please stay in your car.” It is not difficult to speculate that someone wanted to advise people to remain seated in their vehicles in the event that there were elephants in the area.
On the other hand, if it lacks punctuation, it gives the impression that it is requesting that elephants remain seated in their automobiles. It is not difficult to understand what is being said because everyone is aware that elephants do not drive; however, this demonstrates what can occur when one or two commas are removed from a sentence.
But You Could Look Even Better If You Tried
Depending on how you look at it, this sign is either really brilliant or just really a troll move on their part. Someone left a note in the restroom that read, “You look fine,” which was written on the wall in place of the mirror that should have been there. That’s fantastic and everything, but what if you want to double-check and make sure there is nothing on your face? On the other hand, the message itself is in some way incredibly comforting and reassuring.
We do not know, but we are certain that it reduces the amount of time that people spend standing in front of the sink and looking at themselves in the mirror to ensure that every aspect of their appearance is satisfactory.
A Judgement-Free Zone
When the temperature is high outside, it can be difficult for your furry friend. It is especially important for them to maintain a constant level of hydration while they are out for extended walks. It’s a relief to know that there are people in the world who are willing to lend a helping hand and put out a bowl of water for people or dogs that happen to be walking by and happen to be parched at the same time. The following message is printed on this sign: “Water for your dog or short people with low standards… we don’t judge.”
That is most definitely a kind thing for you to do. In all candor, cities really do need to begin the process of reintroducing public water fountains into their landscapes. Even though they are not likely to have very good sanitation, they do provide people with access to free water.
We’d Without a Doubt Go to the Right
This sign is funny for a number of different reasons, including the ones listed here. It appears as though a taco shop just installed it on their corner, and it essentially provides pedestrians with two options if they happen to come across it. There is an arrow that reads “tacos” and points in one direction, and there is another arrow that reads “no tacos” and points in the opposite direction. If you were presented with this option, it is only natural that you would select the arrow that was labeled “tacos.”
If, on the other hand, you are driving through the area, you don’t really have a choice in the matter because the street only has one direction of traffic. The location of your store can be chosen in this manner.
A Fine Of $200
The meaning of this sign quickly becomes quite significant. Having said that, it does nothing more than cause you to question everything else about it. People are warned not to touch any wires by the sign because it says doing so will result in “instant death.” Even the skull and bone decoration can be found on either side of it. You are then informed that there will be a “$200 fine” if you continue to engage in such behavior. How could there be a penalty if you have a high probability of passing away right away?
In addition, where exactly is the Newcastle Tramway Authority located? That sounds like a location in the United Kingdom; however, if this is the case, why are they referring to the price in dollars rather than pounds? There are a lot of unknowns here.
The Elucidation That We Have All Been Seeking
It’s not every day that you have a mental conversation with a pair of doors, but sometimes you do. However, once you begin reading either of these two signs, you will immediately feel compelled to do exactly that. The sign that is attached to the door on the right appears to be in order and instructs people to use the door on the left. On the other hand, the sign that is affixed to the door on the left reads, “I am the other door.” It is difficult to avoid having the impression that you were conversing with a real person when you are in that location.
It is also kind of difficult to resist the temptation to look for a more profound meaning in the wording that has been chosen for this set of signs. Does it appear that people have been using the door on the left? Is there anything else that could possibly be going on here?
The Trick of the Trade: You Can Get the Neutering of Your Car for Free
The topic of parking is introduced with this, the first sign on this list. This sign was hung up at a veterinary clinic to ensure that the available seats were set aside for paying clients. It warns people not to park there if they are not going to the veterinary clinic, lest they risk having their car “neutered.” The most impressive aspect of this sign is most likely not even the words themselves, but rather the serious font that makes it look like any other no-parking sign.
If you did not read it in its entirety, you would probably assume that it was the same as any other sign. However, this is just one of the things that adds to the allure, and we are grateful that somebody read the whole thing and took a picture of it.
Not the Teacher of the Year Award Winner
When it comes to making hilarious signs, teachers are arguably some of the best at what they do, but we’ve never seen a classroom sign with quite the same level of deadpan humor as this one. A music instructor wrote a list in which they expressed their regret for being perceived as “a difficult, demanding, and somewhat obsessive music instructor.” In addition, they guaranteed that they would “attempt to be nicer in the future,” but then they proceeded to tell their pupils that the statements made above “are lies,” and that they should go practice more.
With a sign like this, even if the instructor has a tendency toward obsessive behavior, we wouldn’t mind having them instruct us in a thing or two about music. It simply demonstrates how dedicated they are to the cause.
Armed Dinosaurs?
No. Are Those Dinosaurs Wearing Flowers? Even though we don’t know who this sign is aimed at or exactly where it was hung, the fact that it’s so hilarious doesn’t change the fact that we don’t know either of those things. It depicts a Tyrannosaurus rex brandishing two pistols and a prohibition sign in red on the left side of the image. On the right, a T-rex is depicted carrying flowers inside its body to represent the fact that this behavior is acceptable.
So, yeah, we aren’t sure if this would dissuade an adult from bringing a gun somewhere, but it could potentially encourage a young child to trade in their handgun for some roses. It’s a mystery as to how this T. rex was able to pick up either the gun or the flower with those tiny arms, but it looks hilarious holding either one of them.
It’s Only Chemical Reactions, Bro
These days, signs warning people not to smoke are fairly common. The reasoning behind it is straightforward, but there are situations in which people appear to completely disregard such indicators. This dock owner came up with a pretty ingenious method for explaining his no-smoking policy to customers, and he did so in the clearest and most straightforward language that was available. It says, “Absolutely no smoking, fire + fuel = kaboom!” on his sign. It’s rather difficult to put it into words at this point, but then that.
Having said that, given our familiarity with people, it would surprise us if every single person who docked here ended up obeying the rule. One of those things that is difficult to exercise self-control over is smoking.
An Enterprising Public House Owner
As was mentioned earlier, in order to be successful as a business owner, you need to be creative. When the proprietor of this bar saw a sign indicating that a road was closed, he did not waste any time in taking action. They walked and positioned their own sign next to the warning that the road was closed. Their sign read, “Pub open tho.” Even though they might have misspelled some of those words, at least they included a direction arrow to ensure that everyone understood where they needed to go.
That kind of quick thinking is definitely something to admire. If you are going to be driving somewhere, however, it is probably not the best idea to make a stop at a pub on the way there.
Honored Worker of the Month
It’s easy to become bored with tasks like stocking inventory and switching out displays. Because of this, the employee probably felt the need to liven up the atmosphere a little bit and mislabeled the bananas as “long yellow things.” Either that or they simply had enough and made the decision to put absolutely no effort at all into achieving the desired result with this sign. When you see signs like this in the supermarket, it makes you wonder what could have possibly caused something like this to occur in the first place.
Was it really a dissatisfied member of the staff? Or perhaps the workers just wanted to see if anyone would notice if they put up this sign in the first place. At least the price-to-weight ratio was converted for anyone who was not familiar with the imperial system.
Driving Safely
When driving down the highway, it’s always a treat to spot one of those illuminated electronic signs displaying some witty text. It merely serves to bring to your attention the fact that those messages are being typed out by a real person somewhere. On the other hand, we do not believe that the purpose of this one was to be humorous. Instead, it appears to be an error of some kind. The following is what it says: “Winter conditions. Drive while eating cake” Even though we don’t think there’s anything wrong with eating cake in the car (in fact, we encourage it), we’re pretty sure they meant to say “care.”
On the other hand, we are confident that whoever wrote this was either extremely busy or having a bad day. The spelling on signs of this type is typically pretty accurate, but no one is perfect and mistakes can always happen.
Harassing The Employees
It is probably one of the signs with the most interesting histories, despite the fact that it is one of the most coincidental signs on this list. The sign itself reads, “Please do not throw cabbages at our staff.” Unfortunately, we are not aware of the circumstances surrounding its creation. Nobody knows why the workers would put this item up in such an obscure location in the freezer, or why they would put it up at all.
On the other hand, this raises the question of what else you can throw at the staff if cabbage isn’t an option. The other items in the freezer appear to have become quite solid.
Why Are Potatoes So Controversial
This sign is further evidence that potatoes are one of the most underappreciated types of vegetables there are. The sign was initially penned in a language that was not English, and it was later translated into English. The portion that has been translated says, “You are my love, my angle. Don’t treat me like a potato”. The sentiment itself is kind of sweet, and we can probably deduce that the word “angle” is supposed to be “angel.” But what on earth are we supposed to make of the potato references?
You could use this as the title of a song, or if you’re feeling particularly daring, you could even get it tattooed on your body. Extra credit will be awarded if you can also figure out the characters in the other language.
Are You Positive About That?
When you have two entries on a list of this nature, you can confidently say that you are skilled at writing signs. Another humorous sign from El Arroyo in Texas; according to the locals, this town is well-known for producing some of the most creative signs in the area. This one says, “I have never in my entire life pretended to be sarcastic.” It goes without saying that they are doing exactly that with this sign, but it does require some consideration on your part for a moment.
Additionally, in order to properly read it, you need to read it twice, at least that’s what we did. Anyway, we have decided that we need to go to this location.
Waiting for the Right Moment
This sign is for you if you’ve ever found that you just didn’t feel like going to work for no particular reason other than the fact that you’d rather stay home and do nothing than go out and face the world. “Weather too depressing for coffee,” it says there. We’re getting an early start and heading home to watch old episodes of Futurama while sipping wine in bed. We are grateful for your awareness of this.” Additionally, it bears the signatures of every member of the coffee shop staff. We are willing to believe that there are activities more deserving of your time off than sitting around and watching old episodes of Futurama.
In point of fact, if there were ever a justification for taking an arbitrary day off from work, then this would most likely be the best option to go with. Only one question remains: in what kinds of conditions would coffee be inappropriate to drink?
