Nobody just builds a sign because it looks good. If that was the case, we’d probably have paintings and photographs on display on the roads.

Whether it’s a sign with an advert or a road sign, it’s there because it has a message to say. These bits of info become quintessential in moving around places, knowing what you’re allowed to do and, more often, what you're not, or being aware of the direction you’re going. But what if the signs fail to do what they are supposed to?

That’s how they end up on one of these Facebook groups: Stupid and Weird signs or Really Bad Signs. Both communities provide pure entertainment that shares anything from road and shop signs to street and public signs that have something off about them. Sometimes it’s a spelling error, other times it’s a unique message, so I leave the stage to them. Scroll down and upvote your favorite ones!

No lifeguard? But I could get a grass stain or trip... a bee could BUZZ BY MY HEAD! Anything could happen, we really need a lifeguard for this to be safe

Very funny sign. Perhaps there was a lake or river there at one time.

OK.. is this a plausible explanation: What looks like a grass field is actually a dry riverbed? The landscape definitely looks like it would drain to the area behind the sign; I just don't know if how much water would gather there, or if the vegetation there is consistent with flowing water.

I live near a lake like this, it is used for rrigation and it's seasonal. Late spring and into summer it's a beautiful but rather shallow lake.

Man was really looking forward to swimming. I guess I can’t because there’s no lifeguard.

This one is actually making me sort of uneasy, having been in the deep Rockies, this may as well be a grassy swamp that sinks you down when you try to walk on it. It’s probably just a funny sign though! :D

That looks like an Australian flood plain. When the wet seasons comes STILL don't swim there.

There are signs along the highways around here which say "DRIVE N TEXT, UB NEXT".

I've already bottled mine up, does that count? Or should I leave the bottle in the vehicle too?

If you actually end up in Boston, or London Heathrow, it will be unexpected!
