I See The Signs!

I think signs are awesome. They're a chance to get a message across while being a little creative and humorous or they try to be serious and come across as a little goofy. One of my "just for fun" goals this year is to try to take pictures of all the signs that give me a giggle. To kick off my Sign-O-Thon, here are a few I took this week, along with two at the end that I took a couple of years ago. Enjoy!

So many things come to mind, but I'll be nice. 


I always think this one is kind of sad. But yay that they get to play outside! 


I can't afford to send everyone who needs training to this place.


Um, there is a perfectly good road that continues past this sign to my destination. Why do I have to get out and walk for 1/2 a mile? And how do I get my car to the stop sign at the end of that 1/2 mile?


Would you attend a church that had Little Hope? Me neither.


Yes, this is where I get many of my friends, but I love them all. 


Ewwwwwww! I refuse to shop at a convenience store that wants to know if people "Got Worms."

Who knew The Way To Grace was in Pocatello, ID?


"Don’t Mess With Texas" has nothing on Washington's anti-litter campaign. At least we Texans don't threaten overt violence.

Excellent. They've now given up on trying to stop people from drinking and driving. Now it's up to the rest of us to just "watch out."

  5. Hilarious signs. It's amazing how much goes into getting a sign put up, maybe sign makers should start hiring beta readers and editors too. :-P

  10. @Christy: I'm with @TL Jeffcoat! It probably takes a small act of Congress to get a local or federal sign posted, and yet so many of them are...dumb. LOL! I just scanned them again to make sure, and yep, "Little Hope Baptist Church" is indeed my favorite. ;-)

  11. @Christy I think this post is great! I see signs that make me go hmmmm all the time. My favorite is the "Horse and People Training" sign. LOL! I knew a lot of people that need training too. :-)

    I can't wait to see the next batch!
