This first sign greets customers at a garden store.

The second one was outside the drug store.

The Far side has fun with signs.

The second one is from a charity run.

Big savings at the grocery store.

This company is having fun with the British security people.

Toxic waste can be fun.

The folks who own the new SUV, want us to live simply.

This toilet barely works. 15 seconds is a long time to push the awkwardly placed button on the side.

Get a new toilet. I'm pretty sure that the owner could afford a new one. This giant sun room is about 1/5 of their castle on the beach.

The add is for a plastic surgery business. A rivet on the bus, makes it appear that the model has a wart on her face.

The bathroom signs are at a place that serves alcohol. It seems likely that some patrons will choose the wrong one.

Only in Maine (this is a REAL sign/store).

My wife went to the Boutiques to find a wedding dress for our wedding and hardly got an acknowledgement, but when she went here, they doted over her and actually ended up buying her wedding dress here...though I did not need beer to wed her, nor put a gun to her head to say "I do"

I think they close the restaurant when the last customers leave. They are closed between 2 and 5 p.m. . They reopen at 5 and continue until some later date.

Hm, I did not know that "closing" was a time! Haha!

We've actually has a mountain lion traveling across the 'volcano' on our property and heard that it ate the dog next door. We call them 'mountain lions' and not 'cougars' for the reason in the first sign!

I did a job for a retired policeman who worked in Yellowknife Northwest Territories. A quick Google search showed that there is a street of that name in Yellowknife. I think policeman are supposed to prevent theft.

Everywhere I Go, there are silly signs. I think I heard a preacher say that once.

. Yup, you live in ME. Lol. Only place I lived where you can purchase ammo, by the round,eat the worlds worst pizza, pick up some cotter pins,fish hooks,a new flannel shirt, a bottle of vodka,a hunting liceance, two dozen minnows and your mail, all at one convenient location
Last time I flew, there was a sign with prohibited carry on objects. There was a cartoon drawing of a " bomb" like you see in a road runner cartoon with a red "no" slash through it. Were the airport people telling me that I have to place my bomb with the checked in luggage

Larry. Ps that was a joke

We went to a funeral one time in New Portland, Maine and the name of the road was "The Katie Crotch Road". All we can think of is that since the road follows a river in a very rural area; with plenty of places to stop in what would be an ideal "lovers lane", it hence got its name. We got a HUGE kick out of this as my wife is named...Katie!

I would have a photo of it, but the locals say the minute they put the sign up, someone steals it. Near me in Freedom, Maine there is the "Goosepecker Ridge Road", and that too the vandals like.

They STILL have issues with Lukenbach Texas road signs. The song was popular in the late 70's.

I like the ones in some stores: Unattended children will be given expresso, a glue gun, glitter, and a puppy. I don't have a picture....
