When you see the fast fashion giant Zara proudly selling “Dude With Sign” shirts for their summer collection, you know the Dude has gone mainstream. And how couldn’t he? With a whopping 7.5 million followers, New Yorker Seth Phillips has gained a cult following for his truth bombs that protest anything from loud engines, phones that shatter easily, “x” in espresso, and other very specific, small things that add up to our daily lives.
And luckily, there’s always something new to protest against. Like, hot coffee in summer or verifying you’re not a robot. So today, we collected some of the Dude’s most recent signs for y'all dudes and dudettes who have had enough. Of what? Let’s say, just everything.
Psst! More truth bombs from ‘Dude With Sign’ await in our previous posts here, here and here.

Stop carrying your dogs around... leash them and let them run. It's better for both of you.
My 1 dog loves to go for walks, my other dog wants carried like a baby... And both like to wear clothes when its cold, they will bring me their sweaters.

Breeds like chihuahuas shouldn't have been brought into being in the first place, that would have solved the problem. (I know this is gonna be downvoted as unpopular opinion, but *shrug* IDGAF)

For all the people commenting below: I'm pretty certain he's talking about dressing up your dog in little dresses or Halloween costumes, not practical weather gear or a cute little bow tie on its collar. But I always think, you will know if your dog doesn't want to wear it, because it will be destroyed inside 5 seconds flat, so why worry? :)
my dog is a italian greyhound and we live in Vermont so she has to have a sweater and she loves it.
Some breeds are not weather proof . Single coated dogs do need to wear a sweater when t' cold.
Um some dogs do. Really not an issue unless the dog seems bothered by it.
Some do. I had a Chihuahua that sulked when I took her jacket off. She even liked it on when it was warm.
Some could be disabled which is why they are in such a thing

Both of my dogs are "cold" weenies...desert dogs, they shiver uncontrollably when temps dip below 55. Both mixed rescue dogs, both ridiculously beloved and pampered now. When I say "sweater time", they both line up waiting for their favorite sweaters (and yes, they do have their favorites, which surprised me too). Chihuahua mix and Pit/ Whippet goo grrls
My pup has a very visible facial expression when i put her into something 🤣
No animal wants to wear clothes. This is why they were born with fur. Clothes are for the owners pleasure, not the animals. If you want to play dress up, get a doll.
Our pitbull goes NUTS when we pull out her sweaters in the winter..in her opinion, we can't get it on her fast enough! This is yet again an example of someone being judgy with only their one sided view of it..as with everything these days...
Actually, many dogs absolutely LOVE wearing a sweater or vest. It keeps them cosey, especially older dogs like my 13 year old pit. She gets so cold, especially in the winter. So a simple sweater or vest makes her potty times more enjoyable. And my younger male likes to wear flannels. Idk why, but he does.
I know it's a joke, but little dogs actually do need something to keep them warm in winter when they go out to pee.
Hey not true. My dog loves her sweater dress. She eagerly puts it on without training and fights me if i try to take it off. Shw even keeps it on if shes wet. She is a weird dog. We only let her wear it in winter and obvi we dont let it dry on her lol
Uhh yes he does. Especially if theres snow. Hes not putting a single toe outside that door without his jacket and not even picking him up and lifting him through is gonna work because the second you put him down hes back inside.
My son's dog loves outfits, he sees my son pick up one of his doggy outfits and he goes crazy and then stands there and let's my 8year old dress him like he's about to do a model shoot. And he will keep it on til my son takes it off. Usually bed time
I agree with this 100%. Let animals be animals. They’re NOT your dress-up dolls.
My nearly nekkid Pitbull-mix HAD to wear some sort of clothing/covering during extreme weather (Yes, she could easily get sunburnt - even the vet recommended it during very cold/very hot weather) - she put up with it because she knew the alternate was feeling rather unpleasant outside.
If the animal is dressed up for the owners 'enjoyment' and /or to garner up votes on such sites as this then it is wrong for them to be dressed. PS - surely this is simple common sense and compassion for the animal and yet its still being debated. It should be a non-negotiable.
Pluto (Pluto Living on YouTube. So cute!) is a senior dog who has difficulty walking on hard flooring. And yes, her nails are kept trimmed. For older dogs there are little socks with non slip markings on the bottom so they don't slip walking on the floor. They help a lot because she can now run around the house safely.
PS I really can't believe that any animal wants to wear clothes. If they bring their jumper etc to the owner it is an unnatural action which the owner had trained into them.
I know, it's especially weird that h. sapiens sapiens want to wear clothes. Strange animals indeed.
Load More Replies...Dude’s stardom started back in 2019 when Seth Philips, also known as the famous Dude holding signs, and Elliot Tabele held up a cardboard sign saying “Stop replying-all to company-wide emails” in New York City’s Soho neighborhood. The shot was initially made to be shared on Tabele’s Instagram account but after his follower count blew up, the duo realized their low-key protests were something the internet went crazy about.
Previously, Seth told Forbes that the signs were inspired by the never-ending list of first-world problems millennials have had enough of. But what made Dude With Sign really popular is just how relatable his truth bombs really were. The signs' universal appeal has amassed Seth a whopping 7.5M followers.
Today, Dude With Sign's influence is indisputable. Just a few days ago, I stumbled across Dude With Sign shirts in the isles of the street fashion giant Zara. The collection of shirts featured a couple of the most popular pics of Dude holding a punny sign.
Meanwhile, during the worldwide pandemic, Seth has collaborated with the World Health Organisation on a series of memes to share accurate information about how to prevent the spread of coronavirus. The series of pics was aimed at those who use Instagram as their news source and they included messages like “Elbow bumps are the new handshakes” and “Just chill. Your friends aren’t doing anything, anyway.” Both fun and lighthearted, Dude’s signs have helped to spread a crucial point at the height of the global health crisis.
How do you get D**k from Richard? You ask him nicely. Thank you, I'll see myself out now.
I and my entire team can do our jobs 100% from home, but our CEO is obsessed with bringing everyone back into the office, because he loves the 'energy' of having everyone there. The problem is we're short 100+ desks, since the pandemic (we only have desks for half of my team) That's might be OK though, as we're likely going to start losing people soon, who don't want to go back to the office.
My fellow nonparents need to stop being obnoxious about this. 18 months is way different from 12 months developmentally.
In New Zealand we tend to have electric stoves and the elements are different sizes to account for different sized pots and pans. In most of the places I’ve lived, the front left element is bigger than the front right one.
But the entire US credit system is based on the fact that people spend money that they don't have. If you don't spend money you do not have you won't get a credit score and without a credit score you can't get a mortgage or a loan to buy a car.
And cats. From what I've been reading that's actually the only thing that Zoom is good for.
It is from old English Wōdnesdæg or ‘Odin’s day', after Odin or Woden, the supreme Germanic god. Similar to Dutch woensdag.
But there are some people that are too obnoxious to be in the same room with even for 5 minutes, so that bit of info will decide if I'll accept your invitation.
And keep it there, not in real life. We want to work from home happily ever after in real life.

This was mildly amusing the first time. It’s bordering on irritating now. IMO
Yes, he just seems like someone with too much time on his hands
Too much sign on his hands?
People have the same 24 hours. If this is his hobby, I appreciate his dedication. It's a sweet hobby. Chaotic good.
Yes. I agree. I remembered halfway through how annoyed I was getting the last time I read his posts
And no idea what to do with it.
Too much time, like you reading all this stuff and commenting? Ok just checking.
You've got no idea how much time he's spending doing this. And isn't more free time something we all wish we had?
Did you know you have the option not to look at it? Revolutionary, I know.
This comment has been deleted.
Your comment is fully irritating not just bordering on. Imo
A lot of these are awfully judgey for someone who stands around with a sign for extended periods of time.
They are jokes, ok?
i think
Easy to be judgy from behind your device screen. At least he's putting himself out there.
You really think he stands there longer than it takes to get a photo?

I'm glad you're so much better than he is.
Wow Nikole, what made you go to the dark side because someone pointed out a reality?
World needs c***s too
There's already enough of them

My mom used to work for Rand McNally. I showed her his. It was like watching a robot turn its head slightly, short circuit, and implode. It was great. Thanks!
Yup. Indeed you are an a*****e. Thanks for the advertisement.
I almost hesitated to click that, and I regret nothing
This is like that tv ad Jake from StateFarm. It is funny at first and then became super annoying.
Or maybe "dad put more money in my account"?
I wish I knew him and we were friends
He is the one who suggested to wear masks, but then showed up at the Super Bowl. Without a mask.
I don’t know about y’all but I love him :) he’s so wholesome
Why do we drive in the parkway but park in the driveway?
George Carlin wondered the same thing.
What's a parkway?
Street, avenue, drive, lane, circle, boulevard, place, road, parkway etc.
Well, this was kinda... Dumb.
He needs a sign that says "Stop buying a new tshirt for every post you make". This mans closet for T-shirt's must be huge
Lol. I counted 16 different shirts. There were a couple repeats. If he didn't change the shirt/location people would say it's photo shop. This is his job. He makes money by posting viral posts. You wouldn't comment this about all the 'fits' your fave influencer wears so why the hate?
Love this guy!
Mine would say "I support naps for adults".
i bet his arms hurt
I'm more impressed that he seems to have 400 different tee shirts
This dude is pretty awesome.
His poor arms
Quite amusing, Cheers for the grins😁
At least he respects women and nature
I wish I had as much free time as this guy. I wonder how many people read those signs and thought, "By God, that sign changed my life."
It's his job. People make money from viral posts.
The more I read on this site, the more I'm glad I don't socialize beyond my family and the 3 ppl in my life I actually like. People are all just judgy jerks (yes, I'm aware of the irony in my comment).
I know this kid… he was a year behind my twins in school, and they played sports together. This great kid has an entire great family, especially his Mom. All of her kids have the capacity for greatness!!! They are kind, loving and socially aware. Congratulations on your success, Seth!!!!!!!
where are the new pics?
I adore this guy!
this dude is funny
This dude has WAY too much time on his hands. Why not use it for something productive and useful, maybe help in an animal shelter or the likes, instead of standing around with pseudo-intellectual bullcrap?
I think that about all "Influencers" and people who have to run and post videos of every thought and thing in their life. But yet, there they are, getting hits and $ from it anyway
Yet you wisely spend your time writing close to 5,000 posts on this web page... most of us spend our down time doing useless things. Why is your thing better than his?
Man, people just like to complain about everything.
Lol @ complaining about complaining.
I'd love to know how the idiot pays his rent.
Anyone else notice a corporate logo in a lot of the pics?
