Have you seen any funny signs?

A house is being built just down my road and the sign on the scaffolding read: "Beaver Scaffolding: It'll take some lickin'"

Completely true!

There used to be a sign near downtown that said "Blind cross here". I asked my dad how the blind people would be able to read the sign, and know where to cross the street. He explained that there was a center for blind people there, and they wanted to alert drivers to watch out for people crossing the street.

lol That's a good one!

The vet in my home town was called: G.N.Ash. Which I kind of thought was funny. Maybe you had to read Dennis the Menace and his dog Gnasher to appreciate it.

Where I walk to school there's this sign that says "No hay vía para vehículos pesados" ("heavy vehicles aren't allowed to enter"). But someone scratched out the "vehí" so now it reads "heavy asses aren't allowed to enter".

no, i've never ever seen a funny sign. not in my whole life.

Yeah, there's this steep hill in my neighborhood and a city road sign that says "Hill." Under it someone wrote "duh." There is another sign, a street sign, that says "Ewer." Before the "E" someone wrote an "S." There's another street sign, "Winter." Someone whited out the "t" so it reads "Winer."

Just one. Near the University of Oregon there is a sign as you come off 11th Avenue onto Franklin Blvd. that says "right turn permitted on red." Unfortunately, if you take the sign to heart you will turn into the cement wall abutting Deedy Hall. The sign was misplaced (and has been there for at least 15 years). It was supposed to have been placed at the next traffic light which is quite a distance from the sign.

There is a billboard on my way home from work. It is large and split in half with two different ads next to each other.

One side says:
PREGNANT? in huge letters and has information regarding a place to contact for help.
The other half has an add for a bank with huge letters that say FEEL HUMAN AGAIN. and then information about the bank.

Approaching the billboard you see these words:
PREGNANT? FEEL HUMAN AGAIN.

It cracks me up.

A small convenience store in the town I work had this on their reader board for a while:

smoked salmon
phone cards

Bad graffiti makes me laugh like:
Jimmy is a barstard
Dont feed pigeons unless thay feed you.

Someone educate these inbreeds - if your gonna mess up the place at least take a dictionary.

On the Late Show with David Letterman. They got a picture of a big (REALLY big) sign that had "Dog Pound" on the top, and "Sausage Factory" right underneath it. Ugh...

My best friends, my husband and I once were on a trip together to go to a mutual friend's wedding. On the way, we stopped at a gas station. There was a sign advertising; Cold Ice for sale here. We asked the attendant (while snickering) if they had any hot ice? - he looked at us kinda strange (I guess that's why he's a gas station attendant!) We took a picture of the sign, it turned out that it was the only picture we took on the whole trip! We love it - it reminds us of our friend's wedding and what a great time we had (the best part of it was the drive up there!)

On the same trip, (while I'm at it) we saw something familiar seen in Quebec's countryside but this one was rather peculiar. For some reason, the Catholic French like to make little alcoves for the Virgin Mary statues they have on their front lawns. Most of the time, old bathtubs are planted vertically in the ground (along with flowers) and the statue is placed within. Only this one was not the ubiquitous bathtub but looked rather like a telephone booth. Of course I had to say; "Mary...Phone home!"!! You had to be there! We literally pissed our pants laughing during the whole trip! Everything was funny and we weren't even high!

Another sign:
Our same friends went on a trip to the East coast and took a picture that, to this day, we still can't figure out the meaning of. It's a picture of a flying gull with a cross over it and it was posted on the dock by the ocean. What's it mean? Is it to let people know that their pet gulls are not allowed or is it for the gulls to see that they are not allowed... It can't mean not to feed the gulls as there would be a hand with crumbs (I've seen those). So what DOES it mean?

We have a scaffolding company in Montreal called; Érection Rapide - need I translate? That's also the truth!

In Upper New York State, I've often seen signs that read;
"Windshield wipers must be on when raining"
duh... I though they were there just to clean my windshield when it got dirty - what a novel idea to use them in the rain!!

Not really the same thing, but:

A "No Dumping" sign at a park.. it was right next to a port-a-potty.

A sign on an old 50's style rusted out pick-up we saw when we took a short road trip all over Indiana. The truck was parked in front of this old man's garage out in the country. He had like this indoor, permanent yard sale in his garage. He was selling, among other things, used men's underwear and about 10 old telephones(we asked to use his phone, no phone service). Anyway, the sign on the truck said "Fer Sale".

Oh! And when we lived in NC, there was this taco bell billboard. It said something like:

"Lettuce let us serve you!"

Apparently someone misunderstood about what it was supposed to say. Which was: "Lettuce serve you!"

About a month later, it was corrected.

lol Builders, eh?

Not a funny sign, but a clever one. It was an advert for Church attendance and was on a billboard in front of the church. It said:

"C H _ _ C H - What's missing?"

I just thought it was clever

I also like the one that says "Jesus Saves!" because someone always writes something underneath like "Michael Owen scores!"

At an Adult store the sign read: Don't be like Santa Claus, he only comes once a year.

#1 lol

I live in Vancouver's Chinatown. There are some pretty amusing names for Chinese businesses. One nearby is called the Fu King Development Company. Across the street from that one is Pu Kee Trading. On a similar note, one of my friends was in a car accident with a fellow who had backed out of a driveway into the street, without looking. I'm not making this up. The fellow's name was Fok Wai Luk!

No, scaffolding... I thought it was a great name!

yes

No, I have not.

There's a sign at Knutsford services on the M6 in Cheshire.

It says "Automatic Door - Push button to open"

It makes me giggle.

There was a store front church that I would pass occasionally and on it's door was a sign meant to advertise it's hours. It had a line that read: "Sun Worship".

I saw a sign once that said

EYE TEST WHILE U WAIT

That amused me.

Two signs right next to each other.
"Vetrinarian"
"Taxidermy"

Another one I saw at a gas station:
"Try our brand new English cheese muff"
