I got one.

I was driving down a road when I came to a stop sign.

Except the 'stop' was marked over with a marker and some one wrote 'BREAK NEK SPEED! B***H!; (yes neck was spelt like that)

I decide to break the law and disobey the sign.



I Know

LAME!

That I'm just reporting what I saw.

Now it's time to sing the nation anthem IN AMERICA!!!

In the small town in which I grew up, a store was closing.  They decided to auction off the contents of the shop and this is the sign on the window.

"PUBIC AUCTION SATURDAY"

I didn't need any so I stayed away.

Also...at a bingo hall in Muncie, Indiana about 10 years ago the big marquee read:

BINGO
SAT AN SUN
9 - 9

It stayed like this for about 6 months...then the parlor went out of business and became a dirt mall.

I love this kind of stuff.

This may not be what you had in mind, but I found it nicely profound:

On a bulletin board at school there was a flier for job openings here on campus. Well some idiot had written above 'job', 'hand'. It was good for a laugh at 6:45am. (I have a 7am math class.)

One of my favourites was found at this very site:

Theirs a Stop sign that someone put a stick under it that says "Eating Animals". I always get a laugh out of it when I pass it.

Mr. Hockstatter

There was a sign where I used to live that said "SLOW", and underneath that somebody painted "THE WORLD".

One time where we used to go cruisin' somebody went up the whole boulevard and put "when police are present" under all the speed limit signs.

I used to work at a residential school for developmentally disabled kids.  The traffic sign at the entrance warned us to keep our speed down:  Slow        Children

Thanks, Shadowphile!  That was the funniest thing I've read in a long time.  I hate trying not to laugh out loud at work.

Glad i could give you a chuckle.  I've got more actual signs, if I can track them down....

Walgrens in town had a sign that read:
BACK TO SCHOOL SPECIAL
GET PROZAC HERE

The sign wasn't up very long but good for a laugh when stuck in traffic

If God is watching us, the least we can do is be
entertaining.
