We'd be nowhere without joke signs, sign failures and all kinds of signs that bring the laughs. So here are some intentionally funny and very unintentionally funny signage. For some failures, here are some really not good signs and designs. For spicier signs, here are some signs that are too scary for their own good.

My dad would have said my car doesn't need an extra virgin. The dads involved mostly responded positively. You can kind of gauge their opinion of their kid based on how they reacted. When the daddest dads aren't getting pranked, they're making epic puns and dad jokes.

Tumblr can get, shall we say, overly specific. The nature of the site, and the people on it, can lead to some deep rabbit holes, like this tumblr users getting schooled on physics and car safety, or really specific and fun history. Anyway, this cranberry bog discussion led to a story about the not-so-obvious spider consequences of working in a flooded bog full of swimming spiders.

You can't hate an answer if it's literally not wrong. Alright, you can. These jokes may not all be exactly factually correct, but they make a compelling case for their own reality. They're technically correct. We like all jokes that are stupid but witty at the same time.

Some acts of defiance are more trivial than others. This employee's power tripping manager decided to revoke his vacation, so he quit and before he left decided to give him a real confusing send off. Sometimes small revenge is all you need, like this guy who battled his work tie policy by buying the ugliest ties possible.

Life is a series of attempts that sometimes crash and burn. Maybe you're trying to make a point on the internet, make a cool piece of art, or just trying to seem cool. Some of these attempts will fail to work out. Without failure, we can't learn, but sometimes people's mistakes are so dumb that it's unclear if they'll learn anything from them.

We'll never understand people who can tolerate themselves being a gross inconvenience to the people around them. Knowing that your feet smell and refusing to put your shoes on on a plane is some trashy behavior. This guy pulled the ol' switcheroo on ol' stinkfoot. We're fans of sweet revenge, like this guy who shut his telemarketers down in person.

We get that all the promotions are annoying, but it's just someone's job and you don't have to go out of your way to make someone's job harder. And if in fact you are a jackass about it, don't go trusting them with your movie-going experience. In rare moments in customer service, waiters and servers deliver clapbacks as well.

The concept for the chart makes sense, it's just an abstract visual metaphor that isn't articulated totally perfectly. That's fine and all, except people on the internet tend to take things very literally. The idea of having one feminine leg seems a bit absurd, so Tumblr took to doodling and had some fun with it. Tumblr is a madhouse of MS painting with Bob Ross and lessons about physics and car safety, so you never know exactly what to expect.

This story is about a particular event that took place during the nuclear testing of Operation Plumbbob. Officially, the steel plate that popped off was never seen from again, but the calculations point to there being enough energy in that metal cap to escape the earth's atmosphere, and it's been an urban legend/mystery ever since. Tumblr finds some interesting and fun history stuff, like the first soldier to take way too many military grade amphetamines.

Something that we're consistently amazed by is the ability of people on Tumblr to make history fun and interesting. Like most Tumblr gems, this one started with a small observation on the color of violets, and kind of spiraled into this whole other historical rhyming, calligraphy thing.

Almost everyone has that moment when they're thinking about a time years ago someone asked them some obviously pointed question like "are you good at back rubs?" or "do you want to wash your pants at my house?" All you can really do is feel bad about not realizing it and move on. Here are some earth-shakingly obvious hints that guys missed. To be fair, sometimes "obvious hints" end up not being hints at all.

Life is just a series of attempts. Most of us are okay at the things that we try, but failure will always be lurking around the corner. Sometimes you're trying to make a point online, photoshop an advertisement together, or just paint a ceiling. It's not uncommon for these attempts to fail to work out. Every attempt on the road of life can take a left turn into failure.
