Funny Pictures: Absurd Signs

67

By Satori

Signs of the times

Signs are meant to be straightforward announcements. With a little cleverness - or sometimes a little lack of cleverness - they can become comedic works of art. Enjoy the first in a series of Hubs on absurd signs. I hope it makes your day a little brighter.

I'm currently continuing a series of these societal absurdities. If you have a picture of a funny sign, that:

  • isn't offensive
  • you think people will enjoy, and
  • isn't owned by someone else (check for a website logo)

feel free to share a link to it in the Comments area and I'll consider adding it to the series. I hope you've enjoyed these; there are links to other Hubs in this series right here. Enjoy. =)

Ooh, I had a few pictures of funny signs in the Philippines. I'll try to find them and see if they don't have copyright.

I like this idea of yours, Satori. Everybody needs a laugh. :D

Thanks, Susan! Yeah, I got the idea last night and as far as I know it's original on the Hubs. I thought a lot of people would enjoy it. Looks like I was right. =)

I always wanted to make a coffee table book of funny but real signs. One of my favorites was a local window store that for a time had all their shop windows closed up with concrete blocks and the slogan on the sign said "The Window People!"

Bwah-ha-ha! Love it, Pam. I'm a big fan of glitched-up ads, labels and signs, myself.

This will never make it into a new Hub because I don't have a one-image thing for it... you know those food donations we ship to Africa? To overcome the language barrier, they usually have a picture on the label of the jar of what's inside. You know, if it's strained carrots, there's a picture of a carrot... if it's peas there'll be pictures of peas... well, evidently this was all working out just fine, but the natives were having a real tough time figuring out the Gerber baby food.

    • The Breakdown of Rights in America - The Cultists of Molech, Pt. 2

      If you asked them directly, and in the unlikely event that these people would give you a straight answer, most of them wouldn't claim to be cultists of Molech. The majority of them don't seem to have any idea that this is the historical derivation... - 6 months ago

    • The Breakdown of Rights in America - The Cultists of Molech

      We've assessed how the Vatican has been working along with Freemasonic dark lodges to infiltrate the U.S. government's political structure and justice system ever since the formation of the country. But despite having control over the politicians... - 6 months ago

    • The Breakdown of Rights in America - The New Roman Empire

      This Hub is part of a series. Here, we learn about the influence and covert techniques the Vatican has used to infiltrate and take over countries for hundreds of years. This will better enable you to spot their influence in modern politics. - 6 months ago
