Did I Read That Sign Right?

by stevebethere on July 13, 2010

in Silly Stuff

In a Ladies toilet:
TOILET OUT OF ORDER. PLEASE USE FLOOR BELOW

In a Laundromat:
AUTOMATIC WASHING MACHINES: PLEASE REMOVE ALL YOUR CLOTHES WHEN THE LIGHT GOES OUT

In a London department store:
BARGAIN BASEMENT UPSTAIRS

In an office:
WOULD THE PERSON WHO TOOK THE STEP LADDER YESTERDAY PLEASE BRING IT BACK OR FURTHER STEPS WILL BE TAKEN

In an office:
AFTER TEA BREAK STAFF SHOULD EMPTY THE TEAPOT AND STAND UPSIDE DOWN ON THE DRAINING BOARD

Outside a secondhand shop:
WE EXCHANGE ANYTHING – BICYCLES, WASHING MACHINES, ETC. WHY NOT BRING YOUR WIFE ALONG AND GET A WONDERFUL BARGAIN?

Notice in health food shop window:
CLOSED DUE TO ILLNESS

Spotted in a safari park:
ELEPHANTS PLEASE STAY IN YOUR CAR

Seen during a conference:
FOR ANYONE WHO HAS CHILDREN AND DOESN’T KNOW IT, THERE IS A DAY CARE ON THE 1ST FLOOR

Notice in a farmer’s field:
THE FARMER ALLOWS WALKERS TO CROSS THE FIELD FOR FREE, BUT THE BULL CHARGES.

Message on a leaflet:
IF YOU CANNOT READ, THIS LEAFLET WILL TELL YOU HOW TO GET LESSONS

On a repair shop door:
WE CAN REPAIR ANYTHING. (PLEASE KNOCK HARD ON THE DOOR – THE BELL DOESN’T WORK)


:-) :-) Smile it’s tuesday :-) :-)

Do people read these signs before they print them?

Some of these are a bit funny, while others I wold think were simply a way to get a person’s interest in a service. Sort of a consumer mind-game.

Awesome. :) Just today I saw (I know, it’s old, but it’s funny when you see it in real life) a chain-type barber shop that had a very large decal reading “$10″ in the window, and three doors down in the shopping plaza was a salon with a huge sign in the window saying, “We fix $10 haircuts.” I wish I’d had a camera with me. :)

Hi Stevebethere, First time here and I must say I like your concept some of these are outrageously funny. I noticed one of your readers said that maybe it’s a way of getting a person’s interest in their service, well if that is the case…I would say it’s working!
Great post and enjoy your blog. jj
