Nowadays signs—in one form or another—can be found nearly everywhere, be it the door of a huge shopping mall or a lonesome road in the middle of nowhere. But what was the first sign ever created, one might wonder?
Well, it might be difficult to determine exactly that, but the symbols in caves dating as far back as the Ice Age are likely to be among the first ones, at least. Canadian paleoarchaeologist Genevieve von Petzinger explored such caves in great detail and revealed that the symbol, which is considered to be the oldest example of cave art (roughly 41,000 years old), is painted inside a rock formation in El Castillo, Spain. “It’s the size of a teacup’s saucer,” she pointed out to TED.

How dd they learn about that, I promise it was an accident! it wasn't on purpose 🙁
Load More Replies...Bold of them to assume that my hairdresser doesn't wash my a*s. Way to generalize.
Likelihood of you pooping on your hairdresser: slim, not zero.... 😅
My kid managed to pee in their pediatrician's face during an exam. Worst part, it was my daughter, so the pediatrician wasn't expecting it!
Load More Replies...I don't need this sign. My groomer is worth every penny and then some.
My dog once vomited on the groomer. She laughed it off but I.was.mortified.
Load More Replies...Whose hairdresser doesn’t wash her bottom?! You folks are being ripped off! That’s the best part! 🤣
Lets not talk about how it costs way more to have their teeth cleaned than our own. I just spent $1,000 on my dog's teeth and she doesn't have that many left!
They go under full anesthesia and if they're older this includes full bloodwork. Also Iv fluids, monitoring and other injectables. Then there's the cleaning itself. Then there's the addition of extractions and how difficult they are. Add that up at the hospital and see how much it is. Anesthesia alone is near 1k.
Load More Replies...Wait, we're not supposed to do #s 1, 2 & 5??? Uuuuuh, I think I need to go apologize to Aimee...
Don't forget about " expressing the a**l glands"!! Which is when you have to squeeze their actual bum holes and a bunch of really really smelly butt fluid shoots out. Your hairdresser is definitely not doing that!!
I can't believe Bored Panda censored a.n.a.l glands lol
Load More Replies...Fair call, but why are our hairdressers still charging an arm and a leg for a trim that takes less than half an hour?
Bold of you to assume I don't bite my hairdresser or sit still for them
THIS! ALL of This is TRUE! Brush your furbabies as often as you Brush Your Hair! And PLEASE use a Brush/Comb. DO NOT use a Rock to Brush your furbabies! Rocks don't make good brushes.

Genevieve von Petzinger also revealed that there are 32 symbols that can be found in ancient caves all over Europe. Such a discovery wasn’t made in a day, though. Over a decade ago, the paleoarchaeologist started her mission of systematically cataloging the geometric signs in caves all over the continent.

One of the paleoarchaeologist’s very first steps was compiling a database of geometric signs that were found at roughly 370 known rock art sites across Europe. Then, in 2013 and 2014, von Petzinger continued her exploration focusing on caves in Spain, Portugal, France, and Italy, recording the details of geometric signs in 52 of them.
Ted reports that after finishing with the fieldwork, the expert analyzed the catalog she put together and found that 32 signs repeated themselves across the span of 30,000 years and the entire continent of Europe. “That really small number tells you that they must have been meaningful to the people who were using them, because they were replicating them,” von Petzinger suggested.

Among the 32 signs documented by von Petzinger, there are dots, asterisks, spirals and a thing called ‘negative hands’. The latter refers to a negative image of a handprint, which is considered to be one of the oldest and the most popular signs of the time (roughly 22,000 - 40,000 years ago).
Nowadays, common signs and symbols exceed 32, but some are still known across entire continents if not even further. Let’s take another symbol of a hand, for instance, the Hamsa, popular throughout North Africa and in the Middle East, which is believed to bring good luck, protection, and good health.

If you’re wondering why the “change my mind” bit sounds somewhat familiar, it's because a sign saying exactly that became an internet sensation back in 2018. That’s when, according to Know Your Meme, American-Canadian podcaster Steven Crowder uploaded a picture on his Twitter account of him seated by the table with the renowned phrase written on it outside of Texas Christian University.

All Or Nothing! A Sign From A Local Business
Seemingly dating as far back as the Ice Age, signs have long been helping people express themselves and their opinions. Such a way of communicating ideas never seemed to have lost its relevance, as it is still vastly used today, whether in the shape of a piece of cardboard saying that the one holding it loves Harry or Taylor or a thought-provoking sign ending with a “change my mind”.

The uploaded picture was reportedly part of Steven's podcast and YouTube series, where he tries to have people with opposing views discuss various issues with him. Even though the sign in the original picture read “Male privilege is a myth / Change my mind”, it soon became a template—an empty canvas, if you will—for people to let their imagination run free and insert whatever they feel is worth discussing.

Another internet sensation known for his painfully truthful and often quite entertaining signage is the Dude With Sign. Expressing his views on all sorts of matters, from food prices to popular culture, the dude, whose real name is Seth Phillips, is a New York-based creative, whose public protests have already attracted over 8 million followers.

The signature shades and a piece of cardboard over Seth’s head became a globally recognized combination, which started as a protest against something oh-so-familiar to many. Talking to Drew Barrymore, the Dude With Sign revealed that the very first sign, saying “Stop replying-all to company-wide emails”, was inspired by personal experiences, and only after it received a positive reaction from the passersby on the street did it become a thing.
P.S. We are quite fond of Seth’s signs here at Bored Panda, so if you feel like checking out some more things he’s been protesting, you can find more of our pieces on him here and here.

Same had happened to the sign of the town "F*cking", Austria, which was stolen nearly every other week, mostly by english-speaking (read: American) tourists. After even heavily welding and fortifying the sign in place did not help, they finally gave up and changed the name of the town. It is now a much more boring "Fugging".

Perfect. One time was passing a church in the summer and the sign said "too hot to change sign. Sin bad, Jesus good, details inside."
