50 Of The Strangest Laugh-Inducing Signs People Spotted In Public, Shared In This Online Group
Interview With Owner
Oxford Languages defines a sign as “an object, quality, or event whose presence or occurrence indicates the probable presence or occurrence of something else.” Signs are informational and usually short and precise.
However, from time to time people may take some creative liberty at creating signs or they don’t really know what they are doing, so these signs become even more interesting. A group on Facebook is filled with signs that make no sense, have grammatical errors or include funny imagery, so Bored Panda collected some of the funniest that were shared there.

I never understand why people move to villages and rural areas and complain about church bells or roosters etc. The same sort live near airports them moan about the sound of aircraft. It is a wonder they don't complain if they go swimming because the water is wet.
The Facebook group is simply called Signs and currently has 1,200 members. It was created in 2016 and everyone can join it to enjoy its content, which is “Signs: weird, strange, funny and unusual signs found around the country,” as it is specified in the group’s description.
Bored Panda got in touch with one of the administrators of the group, Alan Littlefield, and we found out that the page is based in Cape Town in South Africa. That is where it originated as well.

Alan told us a bit more about how the page started: “After my wife passed away I decided to travel and see my own beautiful country. So I became a coddiwompler. During my travels I saw weird and strange signs, including traffic signs that never made sense, all over the place. I decided to take photos of them for a collection I started. After a year or so I decided to share some of the idiocy behind the signs I saw along the road. Hence, I started the Signs Facebook page.”

Or in many cities, "Drive and have your wheels and suspension broken by potholes and the underside of your car mangled by speedhumps"
At first Alan was the only one posting photos and only his close friends were in the group because he was only experimenting with the page, but now it’s grown to a community where the creator doesn’t have to contribute as much because it keeps on going on itself.
The page activity section shows that in the last week, 25 new members joined the group and in the last month there were 36 new posts shared.
The moderators of the page don't allow marketing or advertising because the page is just for fun. “Mostly the page puts a smile and some humor in people's lives. Included in this is the stupidity of officialdom.”

They deserve that spot! Its not easy going down the freeway on a wheelchair.
Some of the signs in this list are quite absurd as some of them include road signs, which are there to make sure traffic is smooth and safe. However, unusual road signs can be dangerous as they are distracting.
Some of the signs are actually meant to be funny and if they ended up on the Facebook page, they reached their goal. In other cases, it seems that the creators of these signs weren’t really thinking about how their message would be perceived or they make you wonder what prompted certain signs to be put up.

Yes, this is a translation error. It should read "eating on rug strictly prohibited". Because many people in India just sit down on the floors in their homes to eat, ie: without table and chairs. So the airport wants to make sure noone does it there.

Y'all know this is one of those bars that only old, straight, white dudes hangout in. And they love this sign and talk about it with pride cause, once, in 1986, Jennifer who works at Home Depot got schlitzed on a breakup bender and stumbled in to show some areola before getting her stomach pumped at the ER. Every cis man in the county claims he was there to see it, but Dave and Earl know who was really there, and they share that look of knowing like two soldiers who survived the same foxhole.

Oh Dear ; this sort of sums up vast swathes of the USA and also explains the popularity of #45 amongst others .... So sad for this once wonderful country and its people (or ignorant backwater - you decide)
