Would you believe me if I told you that the world would be lost without signs?
Just think about it: signs on roads explain to you where you’re headed; signs on streets tell you what to expect and how to behave there; signs tells you what’s new, what’s relevant, what matters; signs even tell you how to feel in the most wholesome ways possible.
Signs also spew funny stuff, whether deliberately or not, and then they get picked up in this Facebook group. And then some pandas that are bored post them here and so here we are. Scroll at your heart’s content.

maybe they wouldn't be short staffed if they offerred a living wage
Dude, entry level jobs are necessary. They're how you learn to be an employee. They're how you get the work experience needed to get a job that pays an actual living wage. And if they pay as much as you want them to, then the employer can't afford to hire anyone, and you don't get your freakin' tacos.

As you might have already guessed, Bored Panda is littered (in the most positive sense of the word) in posts about funny, chucklesome, and hilarious signs that make people crack up. Don’t believe me? Feast your eyes on this, this, this, this and this. There’s probably more, but you get the point.
But it’s not without reason. Signs are an inherent part of our lives, achieving much more than we sometimes expect from them. While signs are generally messengers of information, they can do more. Purposes range from the aforementioned comedic effect to advertising or social campaigns to whatever this is.

I grew up on the streets of southern India, barefoot, with a hippy mama. I live on a volcano and our land is covered in a’ā lava rock. I’ve been conditioned my whole life to feel constrained by foot prisons. So, I think I could, along with many islanders & the barefooters of New Zealand, easily and without pain walk across the LEGO bed of fire.
Little Johnny jumped alla over dat! Then play wif and layers in!!
This is why I don't use that pharmacy. That would be gone.Under my current situation.
Explanation: During Prohibition, alcohol given out as a prescription from doctors (yes this was real) was still legal, so doctors essentially became liquor dealers
Load More Replies...Seems legit to me... after all, a bartender is a pharmacist but with a different drug.
I adore this!! I give talks on visual merchandising to retailers - this is a classic!!
The government that banned the sale of liquor actually approved the sale of liquor if the bottle said "for medicinal purposes" ... Section 7 of the Volstead Act permitted alcoholic beverages as a treatment by a doctor who “in good faith believes that the use of such liquor as a medicine by such person is necessary and will afford relief to him from some known ailment.” - source: https://prohibition.themobmuseum.org/the-history/the-prohibition-underworld/alcohol-as-medicine-and-poison/#:~:text=Section%207%20of%20the%20Volstead,by%20letting%20doctors%20prescribe%20alcohol
Yah. The Volstead Act had more holes than Swiss cheese. And some provinces in Canada trying that same experiment around the same time had similar loopholes.
Load More Replies...I didn’t know they laid down for the longest time, I was told they sleep standing up, so I was extremely distraught when I saw one lying down and thought he was hurt.
So many animals look dead when they sleep. I’ll see a chicken on the ground contorted into what looks like rigor mortis, but no, it was just taking a dust bath.
Load More Replies...No they don’t. They LIE down. Sigh…will this ever sink in??? Love, Grammarianne
Thank you! I am so fed up with the incorrect use of lay rather than lie, it drives me mad. Chickens lay eggs, we lie down!
Load More Replies...Sometimes I wonder if someone put a sign there then how many times have people done that to make it a rule?
It's true! Even as a horse owner, I occasionally check my horses if they are lying down for long!

Introduce yourself properly by telling us what we really want to know. Is it a dog or a cat trying to hammock in your undies?
Load More Replies...Why all the funny comments gone? There was nothing wrong whith it, cmon BP! 😭
Of course it’s angry, wouldn’t you be angry if you were getting fried?
Reminds me of the first Hulk movie with Edward Norton. His translation was off on one word speaking some Asian language (I think it was Chinese or Japanese), wherein he said, “You’re making me angry. You won’t like me when I’m hungry.”
Neerin Yr Pet Aes E Less Nts is what the blue says, I’m probably the only one who read it that way

Load More Replies...More people should realise they are not special. A teacher in the teachers' college told us many times how much smarter she was than us bc she graduated from a music school. So I joked her instrument was a triangle. Lots of teachers in that college were almost abusive and certainly mean to future teachers. A great way to never break the vicious circle of violence. So I'm the one who is breaking it.
Probably one of the coolest ways to use signs is what this fella decided to do. The Love On Every Billboard is an initiative kicked off by John Pogachar. One day, whilst knee-deep in work, an intrusive thought beckoned him with a question: “wouldn’t it be amazing to buy a billboard without it needing to sell or promote anything except for love?”
It wasn’t long until the thought became an idea and the idea became a reality that gained momentum and grew to a signage adventure. The idea revolves around a single word: love. It also revolves around a single color: red. This basic, yet fundamental design and concept has taken the world by storm.
What started off as a single billboard in Spokane, Washington turned into five billboards in Spokane, Washington. And then another 745+ around the globe. Yes, you read that correctly, the initiative has over 750 billboards that are solely dedicated to love.
DÌNK is censored? WTF? Edit: I was censored, so I had to correct it to be seen. I personally am a SINK.
Load More Replies...Even if you have no human kids, if you are owned by a cat they eat up a huge chunk of your money. Food, treats, toys, things to scratch, things to lay on and watch birds. But they are worth it and deserve every single cent you spend on them.
We're retired and our four fur kids are all dead and buried in the back yard. Last year, we were adopted by a cute feral tabby kitten whose tastes went from rats and mice to fancy aluminum canned cat food to chicken. Now, she ONLY eats chicken breasts. One day, we ran out of chicken ourselves, so we were forced to eat cat food! Hahahaha!!

Reminds me of an episode of House MD..where the paramedics had to break a wall to get a big man out of his house. That happens.
In a short film about the Love billboards, it’s explained that Pogachar wants to leave this legacy, these Love billboards where people will be reminded that love is the foundation of everything and we need more love in the world.
Lisa Nichols Jell, the woman behind Bloom Ads, in collaboration with Outfront Media, donated one of their billboards in Los Angeles, CA to be transformed by love. She elaborated on the mission:
“Imagine a billboard that says love, and that’s all it says. And then driving past that, maybe you’re having a bad day, maybe you just had a fight with your children, maybe you just had a bad day at work or whatever. And you see this message out of nowhere. It doesn’t have any other logos on it, it doesn’t have any other messages besides ‘love.’ To me, that was very inspiring. So I thought, if it was able to reach someone—one person, 10 people, 1,000 people, 100,000 people—what an amazing thing that would be. And maybe we can change someone’s day, which can change everything.”
Great phrase! I believe I am going to use that term "water croutons"

No cash refunds. You can keep trying until you enjoy it tho.

Load More Replies...After Amityville, realtors are required by law to disclose reports of weird phenomena, as well as crimes like murders that occurred in the house. Believe it or not, but it is true.
I'm in Florida and there is no law requiring disclosure of any deaths that have occurred in a home. Only 3 states require disclosure, and New York (where Amityville is located) doesn't require disclosure.
Load More Replies..."No, honestly. There's nothing wrong with this house that's been on the market for three years."
Right. I see HAUNTED AF, I'm buying!
Load More Replies...Supposedly, this is a fairly common thing for realitiers to do around Halloween. It's a joke, basically.
Ever wonder how the “cleaners” …for lack of the correct term …deal with cleaning a violent crime scene? Oh man.
Load More Replies...If the unseen residents do not like you or do not approve of you, do not buy this house! Your living experience here, will be cut very short!!
Originally this said 'haunted' in compliance with the law. But the wily realtor found a sign with an empty space in front of the word, and then bet his 5 year old she couldn't spell 'not' This theory would work better if 'not' was written all wobbly, with letters of different sizes. In crayon.
Thats what I thought- I didn't even think of it saying anything about God's living arrangements but oh well

What's even weirder is that this sign was posted in the women's bathroom
Does a quiet, reliable motorcycle not meet your need for attention? Try Harley-Davidson!
Need to get to your destination slowly? Despise cornering quickly? Are you more show than go? Do you want a bike that also has a t-shirt, some chaps, a leather jacket, a denim vest, some trousers, a lot of chrome, an embossed loo roll holder, socks, underwear? In fact it can be your whole lifestyle. Harley-Davidson is for you! P.S. You best have a good credit rating or very deep pockets, this ride ain’t gonna be cheap.

Be careful falling off a cliff is the actual translation, soooo. #NotAKarenJustCorrect (Edit:It is funnier with theirs so ha)
Inhale through the nose. Exhale through the mouth. Drop your s**t through the a**s.
It actually says *beware of falling off the cliff*, the word "小心" can both mean "carefully" and "beware of ". Bad translation.

No. Shoes are things we buy and buy and buy. Feet are things with so many corns on them that we can't wear shoes..
Wow! This ties in perfectly with a comment of my mom's that became our family motto: "Some bears are bigger than others."
Do your feet come from the door? I think the point is that the law requires you to smoke.
Load More Replies...i don’t remember the movie - maybe it was ‘hop’ but it was an easter movie where the easter bunny pooped jellybeans. A callback to that, maybe?
LOL I did this to my son once, when he was about 9 or 10. And yes, before anyone jumps me, he knew as soon as he saw it that it was a joke. Anyway, I filled a small basket with milk duds, and a attached a note from the Easter Bunny saying that since he was such a terrible, horrible little boy, all he was getting that year was a basket of Bunny poop. And then I left it out, where he would easily find it first thing. Like I said, he knew it was a joke, and I even put a PS on the other side of the note that said that, and that his REAL (well-filled) basket was still hidden. He laughed as hard as the rest of us.
Yes! Mine too! There was nothing wrong in these comments!
