40+ Public Signs That Prove Random People Are Beyond Terrible And This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things
One of the main ways that people communicate while out in public is by using signs, especially when it comes to dealing with strangers and customers. Some signs are only a few words or sentences long but the message is so strong it's impossible to ignore.
Funny signs and businesses who get into sign wars with one another have proven to be endlessly entertaining for pedestrians or drivers on the street with lots of brands leaning into it. Some signs are so clever and comical that people can't help but snap a picture and share them online so that the rest of us can laugh at the absurdity of the sign as well.
Other signs kind of miss the mark when it comes to getting their message across and some of them are so cringe-worthy that they end up getting posted on the r/trashy subreddit. They might be hilarious but they are not always appropriate and surely get some odd looks and possibly even complaints.
Keep on reading to see some of the wackiest signs out there in the wild and whether you recognize any of them. Are there any signs in your own hometown or even your own business that could make our list?!
