30+ spot on jokes Texas restaurant posts on outdoor sign during quarantine

Having a sense of humor in life helps us to get through the tough times. The Austin, Texas-based El Arroyo Tex-Mex restaurant knows that more than anything. They have a funny sign that they change daily.

The locals and fans on the internet just love it. But now as the entire country, including restaurants, struggle to stay afloat during the COVID-19 lockdown, their signs are more important than ever.

We could all use a good laugh right about now. “In these times when much is unknown, El Arroyo finds our comfort in bringing smiles and laughter to our community on a daily basis,” co-owner Paige Winstanley told My Modern Met. And the community certainly does too!

Here are 35 signs posted by a Texas restaurant to keep neighbors laughing through pandemic:

1) Aladdin Did It

You know what, now that I think about it. They’re right. He just didn’t fully embody the character until the end.

2) Eat Local

Lots of local businesses are struggling to stay afloat. It’s great to support them when you can. Pay for both of your tacos.

3) Days of the Week Underwear

Do you know what day it is? Nope. None of us do. Unless you’ve been wearing your days of the week underwear.

4) Humor Aside

There’s always a time and place for humor. But sometimes you just need a reassuring word. And El Arroyo came in for the win.

5) Nothin is Truly Lost

Moms can find anything. If you lost it, they’ll find it. But if they can’t, you’re S.O.L.

6) The King and Queen of Rock n’ Roll

El Arroyo wanted to pay tribute to Little Richard after his recent passing. So they did so with this amazing quote. Iconic.

7) Moderation

They say everything is done best in moderation. But that doesn’t count for queso. Gimme all the queso.

8) Who Are Your Heroes?

It’s nice to be asked such a question. Rather than be told who are heroes are supposed to be. It’s nice to make up your own mind.

9) For the Money

Teachers don’t teach for the money. They teach because they want to enrich the lives of children. It’s likely that people are seeing just how important our teachers are now that parents are having to home school.

10) Margaritas

The least we could do is give our teachers a few margaritas. They deserve margaritas more than anyone. Not only do they deal with your kid but they deal with everyone else’s kid too.

11) X AE A-12

Is your name X AE A-12? Probably not. And if it is, you probably don’t need free tacos.

12) Days That End in Y

Every day is taco day. That’s because all days end in “y”. And we only eat tacos on days that end in “y”.

13) Awesome Nurses

El Arroyo just wanted to let everyone know what they think of nurses. And they think nurses are awesome. We all do.

14) Scrubs, Not Capes

Heroes don’t wear capes anymore. They wear scrubs. The scrubs that healthcare professionals wear are their capes.

15) Nacho Average

Yup, that’s an understatement. At least there’s still margaritas. And we have even more of a reason to drink… so, there’s that.

16) Morgan Freeman

Wait? Is that Morgan Freeman’s voice? I thought I heard Morgan Freeman’s voice.

17) Squirrel in Traffic

Raise your hand if you feel like a squirrel in traffic these days. And even if you do, you’re still acting cool as a cucumber on the outside. Anyone?

18) Flatten the Curve, Widen My Ass

They tell us that we’re “flattening the curve” by staying home. What I do know is that by staying home I’m widening my ass. We’re going to have a wide ass pandemic on our hands after this.

19) Hand Sanitizer

We’ve doused ourselves with more hand sanitzier in the last few months than we have in entirety of all our years on this planet. Apparently, it’s killing two birds with one stone.

20) Flirting

The answer is yes. We all do. How can you not when the governement is forcing you to stay home, isolate yourself from other humans, and give up your business because of the latest enemy they are protecting you from?

21) Tough Times

These are some serious tough times. But they won’t last. We will though because we’re tougher.

22) Don’t Be Ashamed

They say there is no rain without thunder. So, it’s OK to fart when you pee. Makes sense… right?

23) Not Working

Some restaurants will be allowed to open up but only for outdoor seating. You’ll have to be six feet apart from other people and patrons. You’ll also have to wear a mask when you’re not eating or drinking. Sound fun? Nope!

24) Life Chill

We really need life to be chill. Chill like Animal Crossing. Is that too much to ask?

25) Social Distancing From the Fridge

Some of us need to be social distancing in our own homes. Like from the fridge. Big time.

26) Uncut Gems

Ahh, those were the days. The sweet, sweet good old days. My how things have changed.

27) Ugly

Ugliness is just a way of life now. And there’s nothing we can do about it. It’s what it is.

28) My Homies

The worst part of this whole pandemic is being separated from the people we love. And just people in general. But not even government mandates can break humanity’s connection to one another.

29) Shit to Your Hair

There’s a lot of people out there right now with crazy looking hair. People with crooked bangs, bald spots, and poorly dyed hair. Oh well!

30) More Alcohol

Is there more alcohol on your hands? Or in your mouth? It should be in your mouth.

31) Chewing the Furniture

I totally get it now. If I had the teeth for it, I’d probaby be chewing the furniture by now too. Would help with the stress.

32) Willie Nelson

Willie Nelson is the Santa Claus of 420. El Arroyo actually calls it Willie Nelson Day. The perfect day to chomp down on tacos.

33) Vowel Movement

LOL, this is clever. Get it VOWEL movement. Instead of bowel because it’s letters.

34) Where Do Tacos Live

Sometimes you have to look on the bright side of things. Like at least we don’t have to hunt for food. I don’t know how to hunt for tacos.

35) Inside Dad Jokes

Get it? Inside jokes. Because you have to stay inside. That’s such a dad joke.
