Most people only see doormats as something to wipe their feet on, but if you really think about it, doormats hold a higher purpose - they're the first thing that people see before entering your home. Your grandma's tacky 'welcome' mat probably doesn't reflect you as a person, however, so we've compiled a selection of alternatives that should be a little more up to snuff. Though the mail carrier might be a little caught-off-guard the next time they arrive at your doorstep, at least you'll sleep easy knowing that your mat is a hundred times more honest than any of that 'home sweet home' nonsense.
Check out the funniest and most creative doormats Bored Panda could scrounge up below, and if you've got an equally genius one sitting on your porch right now, add it to our list at the end!

What if the owner isn't home, and you scream "ding dong" at a door for two minutes? That is sure to get you some strange looks.
Why not install a door knocker ? Or better yet, why not just fix the door bell?
your missing the point of the the doormat... and why it's there.
Load More Replies...You can always choose the direction the doormat will be facing. ^_-
Load More Replies...Where can i buy this as a gift for my brother who has creepy roommates that barge into his room without knocking
Google personalised door mat and it'll show u loads
Load More Replies...I have a sign on my door and above my doorbell that specifically says no solicitors, and yet they knock/ring almost daily. SMH.
Load More Replies...I want mine to say...There's a crazy person with a gun in here. lmao
I know right? That sweet looking doggie looks like she wouldn't hurt a fly!
Load More Replies...All the people you need at your doorstep! Nobody else😜(But look at that grumpy looking dog!
It's for robbers haha. Like, "Don't rob us, the neighbors have better stuff."
Load More Replies...This is unfortunately true for me. My neighbors have a huge TV, an Amazon Echo, two hoverboards, and college money. The very best thing I have is a Furby (wait a minute, furbies are better than everything.)
I love the look on the dogs face. It's almost like he is thinking, "Hey I am cool too"
It's a quote from Game of Thrones season 7, from Danaerys Targaryen to Jon Snow.
Load More Replies...Would be handy to have these neigbours. We don't own a people scale :((

Load More Replies...I wonder how many people stand to the side of it....rather than step on it?
Oh god. I don't want to feel fat every day I get home from school... it makes finishing the day feel a little less good.
Too bad the mat isn't wide enough for the door, because the center of it cannot align with the door hinge. Its not possible to get an accurate angle reading as a result. 😟😟
Consider the thickness of the door and the hinge pivot point. With the door open to 90 deg it's highly likely that it will align perfect and in fact, it's installed correctly.
Load More Replies...Excellent. I still have to think how large angles each time. This would have helped me very much when I was young...
To all complaining about the mat not being correctly aligned.. It is =) Link here: (in Norwegian) http://www.tv2.no/a/8578575/ mathdoor2-...dd0c7f.jpg
The door is about an inch thick, probably, so when you open it it should work.
Load More Replies...Do you even know the definition of "doormat"?
Load More Replies...They have them on Amazon, I believe this exact one. And also Etsy has a shop called "Damn Good Doormats," and they're available there. Would post a link but it won't let me for some reason.
Load More Replies...The one on the right is looking at the one on the left like "wtf are you crying for?"
"I'm posing for the picture dumdum. Now you cry too so mom will quit taking pictures and feed us!"
Load More Replies...Oh that's those creepy dolls I've seen. They are SO lifelike it's awful.
Just because someone wants to go pant-less in their home doesn't make them a pervert. It makes them my kindred spirit.
Load More Replies...My boyfriend considers removing his pants one of the first steps of getting comfortable once we're home
And when the corgis walk away? Talk about flirtatious! That little floof butt gets me every time
*looks around* ME: Is this place haunted cuz I sure don't see anyone beautiful! Other than that corgi.
Now imagine if you actually had to slide to ring the doorbell. That would make a great invention. No one hear steals it, it's mine.
Load More Replies...Health points! *smartly raises finger* (warning: yeah, I do get it's Harry)
Load More Replies...They do this because that's where the "a**l gland" is located. A dog's sense of smell is better than all the other senses. And the a**l gland is a unique marker that is different from all other dogs. Even if there were a thousand dogs who looked exactly alike, Fido can pick out the one he is looking for, because of the a**l gland. :D
Load More Replies...I have one like this, and I've also seen the Darth Vader version stating "welcome to the dark side"
Like... Like DARK chocolate cookies??! *glittery shiny eyes*
Load More Replies...Hello. Only mice are welcome here. Get lost, hugeling! Our cheese is hidden from you!
That's funny. But as soon as somebody walked by they would probably pocket it. Which would suck, because I think that it's adorable.
They like enforcers, "no wine, no entrance" so says the bull dog
Load More Replies...I would be the one rigging each key to play sounds, for your amusement.
Load More Replies...I feel bad for OCD people...the seeds aren't even, then theres the bite 😂😂😂
Don't bother. Got two of those dogs. They are stupid and they cannot read.
Because your friends don't dance and if they don't dance they're no friends of mine.
(In my head: I just wanna dance, dance, dance, dance dance.... YES I LIKE JOJO SIWA DON'T SHAME ME YOU FILTHY HUMAN YOU)
So, children, what does a sentence need? - A capital letter. - Good.
Sorry, I'm not interested in marrying doormats, better luck next time!
I had one with "the key is under the mat" gave up on it cause people kept on looking under lol
I'm definitely NOT browsing while at work, so that's not the reason I can't post my Joker "welcome to Arkham Asylum" doormat pic. I had a hard time deciding between that and "welcome to the Batcave".
Just bought a plain boring doormat last weekend. I'm having regrets. My life could have been so much better with one of those.
I'd love one of these mats but anything left outside my flat get nicked by scummy neighbours :(
I was expecting something NSFW like "step on me, please!", but I was disappointed >:C On the other hand, there were many pets, so I'm happy
