I liked one that I saw in a restaurant (of all places) in India, many years ago.  It simply said..."No spitting hither and thither indiscriminately."  I of course was immediately left to wonder what discriminate spitting might look like.   :rofl;

Sign in a nurse's office (having a dig at the crotchety male doctor)...

"Would you like to speak to the man in charge, or the woman who knows???"

And one I bought for my doctor... It says...

"Doctors are like nappies... Always on your ass and usually full of s**t!!!!"... She LOVES it!.....

Once near where I lived a tagger had written "Satin Rules" with a paint can on a wall, instead of Satan.  I laughed and laughed.  Wish I'd taken a photo.

Here in Ipswich UK there's a "Local Tool Hire" shop next door to "Hamptons"

I know that our UK members will find that amusing, if somewhat archaic. I imagine that the dialect differences will preclude our US members from "getting" the joke.

I don't get it either - you'll have to elaborate.

Ang- those signs went around in our work through email in a flash this summer.  We had a lot of "shovel ready projects" and once we got to work we were trapped I swear........  Some of the road constsruction is coming to an end and we'll have to take that off our bulletin board now......   :bandance;

Not a sign but the truth.

In college (well over 1/2 century ago) a bunch of us non "frat" types rented a big house to stay in.  Mostly we were up all night long and one very religous dude (oh no,  I don't want to get in trouble for this but it is funny) listened to all night Christian radio.  About 3:30 in the morning some dude would come on the radio offering "autographed pictures of Jesus Christ" for a donation.

Driving from Columbia to Fulton MO on a 4 lane highway, there is a billboard with giant red letters advertising "Testicle Festival".  It causes a lot of folks to stop and take pictures of it!  And in Cape Fair, MO there is a sign advertising an annual event called "Oinklawn Downs" which is actually a yearly pig race with betting, etc., proceeds go to charities.
