These people had a marker and a dream! That's all it takes to mildly alter a sign, making it way funnier to you, your friends, and anyone else who stumbles upon it. Up next, read about the red flags that made employees realize they had to get out of their current jobs, like one person who wrote, “If you stomach turns when thinking about anything work-related, it's time to leave. ”

They say that signs are omens, but then one has to wonder: what the heck are these supposed to mean? Sometimes, in life, we get so caught up in our own daily grind that we forget to check our surroundings for phenomena that might make us chuckle and might make our days just a little bit easier. We miss things, whether it's funny interactions on the street, bizarre coincidences, or, in this case, strange signs. This compilation includes the kinds of signs that are unintentionally hilarious. For…

Some signs are meant to be read into, dissected, and taken seriously. These signs do not fall into that category. Instead, this collection of photos often captures those strange moments in life when you come across a sign or poster that makes you do a double take. You ask yourself if you read that correctly and then check again for confirmation. It turns out you did read it correctly, which can only mean one of two things. The first is that this was a total mistake on the part of the sorry indi…

Have you ever seen a sign out in public that caused you to do a double-take and wonder if someone is playing a trick on you? The unique aspect of funny sign errors, when you come across them out in the wild, is that you often will never know what the sign maker's intent was. Perhaps it was an egregious mistake or perhaps they were trying to see if they could get away with a harmless prank. Here's hoping it's the latter because wouldn't we all like to think that humans are more intelligent than…

Graphic design is not these people's passion. And that's okay! They're just regular people making regular signs, for reasons such as “don't park in front of this trash can.” Oh wait… we also have a few professional signs in here too. They're quite hard to read, yet they can be found in restaurants or in advertisements. I think sometimes the graphic designers will make a sign, and their client keeps picking at it. They want it to be prettier or more attention-grabbing. So the artist reworks it a…

It's easy to miss the most bizarre behavior at the airport if you're not looking carefully enough. Perhaps you're too focused on making your flight in time that you don't notice some random lady fully doing yoga poses at the gate like she's in a class or something. Alternatively, perhaps you just landed and you're so exhausted that you just want to focus on getting out of there as soon as possible. If that's the case, you might miss all the greeting signs from friends, family, and car service d…

They say every sign has a story behind it, and some of these signs certainly left us wanting more. For instance, who was golfing in that cemetery, what were they thinking, and how many times did this happen to necessitate the posting of a sign? Other highlights from this week's top funny signs include a “Wrong Way” road sign that was planted upside down. One has to wonder what unwise fellow made that mistake, or perhaps it was planted like that on purpose with the intent of further creeping out…

Life is full of surprises, changes, and unintentionally hilarious signs. People often say if you look carefully enough, there is beauty and levity everywhere. That may be true depending on your perspective and mentality, but one could also amend that statement to say that if you look carefully enough, you will find joy in humanity. Today when we say humanity, we specifically are referring to man's capacity for human error. Nowhere is that more obvious than man-made signs. These signs could be f…

You never realize you live with a bunch of sarcastic comedians until your neighbors start leaving notes in the lobby . Unless you live in the middle of the desert or something, you probably have a few neighbors. For those of us located in cities, it's normal to have not just one, but possibly dozens of neighbors. It seems like there's at least one person in every apartment building who just can't be normal. They're often quite disruptive, as if the dozens of other people in the building just do…

Life is full of many strange (and potentially misspelled) signs if you're looking carefully enough. It's remarkable how much work a marketing team may put into a billboard without doing a simple spell check or using some common sense with regard to the image they've chosen and how it might be interpreted. You would think that among a group of professionals, someone would have said something with some of these signs. But alas, not everyone is as smart as the readers of FAIL Blog. These funny sig…

Every so often, you come across a pub with a clever enough sign that, at the very least, makes you consider coming in for a drink. Honestly, the truth is most professional advertising these days does not come close to the wit of these managers, employees, bartenders, etc. who happened to just come up with something clever on the spot. Perhaps making these signs was a creative outlet during their shifts. Or perhaps these folks should be the future of modern advertising and nobody is giving them…

Sometimes you take a look at a product in a store and immediately wonder what these people were thinking when they were designing this. You're thinking about how silly it looks, how useless it seems, and how many people signed off on this without using their evidently hollow brains. These flaws were compiled from the top posts in the r/BadDesigns subreddit from this past month. Some of these entries include store products, job advertisements, warning signs, and even architectural flaws. Regardl…

You might do a double-take and think you're misreading these signs. Fortunately, you're not crazy. These are actual signs from billboards, retail stores, and public bathrooms galore. Some of the requests being made are so ridiculous that you begin to question everyone else's sanity. For instance, do people really wash their feet in the sink of a public bathroom? Do people really tweet about a fire in the building before evacuating? Do the marketing teams of these major chains really not catch g…

You're going to spend a lot of time in your car, so you may as well make it look nice. From vanity plates to colorful wraps to comfy leather seat cushions, there are endless ways to make your vehicle your own. When you first buy a new car, you have the option to choose a vanity plate . Instead of just the random string of letters and numbers assigned by the government, you can have a custom plate , for a fee. Some people put the things they love on these, like people who brag about being moms o…

Creating a sign shouldn't be this difficult. We can't all be sign experts! And sometimes you need a quick sign ASAP. So you scribble one out with a marker, and carry on with your day. Sometimes the sign-maker is a bad speller. Others simply got too creative with the placement of each word, making it nearly impossible to figure out what the flyer is trying to say. People captured photos of these signs found out in the wild. Some say these posters and flyers are still up today, haunting the walls…

Graphic designers have “off” days too. But sometimes these designs are so poorly done that I wonder if the designer was trying to do it badly on purpose.
