When you ask for God to “show you a sign”, pray that it’s not one of these. A good sign is what you need when you need to get a message out, but not everyone’s good at making them. So let’s take a look at these 50 signs that’d probably stop you dead in your tracks.
At least they’re warning you.


Farms can be mighty smelly, but that’s the least of your problems if you live next to one. Who’s willing to guess how many people turned down buying this property because of this sign?
Didn’t read that in my physics textbook.
Physics is a tough subject, but a bit of studying with a good teacher involved can get you there. So ask your physics teacher about this mysterious extra particle that we keep hearing about.


Cathy seems like a cool lady.
Any person who just wants to talk and also happens to own 9 ferrets is worth meeting. I wonder if her 9 ferrets help her around the office here.


“Been standing here for 30 minutes…nothing.”
Have Netflix and TikTok rotted our brains so much that even cheese is expected to keep us entertained now? Considering it says “LOW PRICE” I don’t expect anything more than a chuckle or two if I’m lucky.


You ever see a sale listing that tells a story?
I can guess what happened behind this wedding dress being sold. Some things don’t need any more elaboration. I love that the “by mistake” part is the last line at the very bottom of the sign, too.


What have you got against mullets?
How someone replaces the toilet paper roll says a lot about them – though it often boils down to whether they just did it correctly. With a sign like this, we shouldn’t have to see toilet paper mullets anymore.


Not the kind of soup you’d take when you have a cold, though.
This ain’t like cream of mushroom or chicken noodle soup. This soup might make your throat all warm, but in a different way. Good thing it’s got H20 croutons to stay healthy.


That enough notice for you?
When this sign asked all bikers to provide walkers with plenty of notice, the message did reach the right ears. A reply from a biker was posted right below the sign, with plenty of the notice they asked for. They were pretty nice about it too.


Guessing some of them want to use you.
I like myself a good quality cheese from the grocery, and I don’t mind an 80’s earworm to go with it either. Whoever authored this sign’s got good taste in both.


What’s that? You didn’t finish.
I imagine the water’s not normally that high, seeing how someone had to have put that sign there first. You could also see this photo as a commentary on climate change, seeing as how people don’t like to heed warnings until its too late.


I hear they’re astonishing jumpers.
Though real raptors were quite a lot more feathered than in Jurassic Park, they’d still be formidable predators to a human. I’d definitely not want to dine outside with a hungry Deinonychus walking about.


That should help me convert things, thanks.
The metric system is pretty hard for many Americans, who’re used to measuring things in feet and football fields. Thankfully, this elevator has a handy conversion guide for anyone confused.


Every sign has a story for why it’s there.
“You kids and your phones” is a pretty cliche thing to hear from the older generation now, but it’d be dishonest to pretend like there’s not a nugget of truth in there. Yeah, some people do seem to prioritize


That’s the second Velociraptor-themed sign on this list. What’s going on?
According to this sign, it’s been over 7 trillion days since the last incident, which is about 2.7 million years. Velociraptor went extinct about 71 million years go, so these numbers aren’t bad all things considered. Just make sure there are no Protoceratops in the workplace.


Uh-oh.
Can’t say the sign didn’t work. The problem now is needing a different kind of sign, and maybe a long stick just in case.


It’ll ruin the flavor.
Donuts are docile, but jumpy. They’re content to lay down in the same spot much of the day since some varieties are nocturnal, but you shouldn’t startle them with loud noises and stimuli or else they’ll go bad.


I’d imagine it took a while to get that black belt.
Partial arts sure sounds like the kind of self-defense I’d be good at. In fact, I’d expect most of us have a thing or two that we never finished.


That enough pilot speak for you?
Some people need simple instructions spelled out for them, others only understand it in the language of their work. So I’m guessing this is a urinal at an airport or a flight training place – and I can’t say I’m fond of learning of the story behind why they placed it.


I wasn’t gonna
Coming back to “every sign has a story”, this one tells me that some truly brave souls are to blame for it being put up. That fence doesn’t look comfy in the slightest.


You can just hear the accent.
Accents are funny the way you hear them in your head when reading things like this sign. I can just imagine a pent-up Southerner shaking their fist and sporting their boots as they shout this as me.


And no amount of shaving and trimming can fix that.
They say “if we can’t make you look good, then you’re ugly”, which is a bit harsh, but I do appreciate a business that’s honest. Some people need to be told straight.


Well no one’s gonna try it now.
I don’t know if this is a small-scale climate change thing, or if the folks here got so fed-up with people ignoring the sign that they just up and removed all the water. Either way, at least no one’s gonna disobey the sign anymore.


What that dog doin’
“Clean up after your dog” shouldn’t have to be said, but some people do need reminding. How nice of this sign to demonstrate how to do it, even if it gives the other dogs a really high bar to meet.


You don’t need to tell me twice.
I like cake as much as everyone else does, and if it makes me less likely to be kidnapped, then it has some health benefits after all. Tell that to your doctor.


This is much more than a sign.
See, on a scale of “sign” to “warning”, we’ve gone way past warning now. We’re at “threat”, and this one is a pretty good one.


Someone had a lot of ink.
This notice may not worth be noticing, but someone took the time to make it. Must have been a lot of extra ink budget to spare.


Is this a threat or a compliment?
Sitting here is either the most flattering feeling ever, or the most foreboding. I guess time will tell.


We’re just following instructions.
That left curb does get lonely from lying around all day. Wouldn’t hurt to give it a few hugs.


Any takers?
What’s that? A parachute for sale, used once and never opened? Sounds like it’s in great condition then. I hope I can speak to the former owner if he’s still around……


That’s the least of your concerns.
Besides making you sheet metal, eating aluminum can also rupture your organs and poison you. You’ll need to find some other way to get your iron intake.


Guess I’m not calling.
One of the strangest dogs you’ll ever see, but don’t worry, it’s found a new home. I wonder if he’s house-broken and responds to a clicker.


Good soldiers follow orders.
Sounds like a great place where they inspire their guests with words like this, and then carry out order 66 when the supreme chancellor of the republic declares it.


It says 2, accordion to this sign.
Nothing wrong with a musical family. It’s just that some instruments are a little less pleasant to hear when someone’s practicing.


Seems like a very confused business.
Can you imagine the looks that the customers give each other? Must be a lot more entertaining than even this sign.


I wonder how much it cost them to do that.
Aww shucks, the 9th floor has been moved to the 15th floor. Must have been quite the renovation cost. What did they do with floors 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14 then?


I sure hope so.
Frozen ice, huh? Thank goodness. I’d hate to have to bring my own bucket of the unfrozen kind.


Yes, good to know.
For a second there, I thought I’d have to look at the vacant spaces for parking. Talk about reading between the lines.


This toilet’s seen some things.
Don’t flush your hopes and dreams down this toilet, at least not now. Save it for when you go to college and end up in crippling student loan debt.


God bless those ants.
Security is expensive, so thank goodness we’ve got some volunteer security of the crawly and bitey kind. Anyone trespassing should be wary if they’ve got a scent of sugar on them.


Don’t think anyone could in that.
Some things shouldn’t need a sign, but it seems like some really brave individuals are what necessitate signs like this. Yeah, don’t swim in the deadly, crashing, flowing water.


Can’t be that dull if you have safaris there!
A place called Dull in a bigger locality of Boring, Oregon? Sounds like a place most of us would fit right into. Though tell me more about this Safari. What have you got there, stripeless zebras and really short giraffes?


Well, when you put it that way….
When you need to get a downer out of the dumps, some reverse psychology works just as well as actual motivation. May work for you and me too!


Shouldn’t be a problem.
For God’s sake, make sure this gate is closed. Someone could trespass real easily if you left it open.


Can’t say no to a pizza.
Being a real estate broker is tough, and you’ve got to really persuade folks to buy some of the homes you’re selling them. And hey, what’s more persuasive than a pizza?


……Okay.
There are times where more words aren’t necessary. Simply do not. Don’t even think about it, ya know?


Don’t you be telling me what to do.
I know what that sign says…..actually, no. I don’t. But even with that, I’m not letting it stop me.


Instructions unclear.
How nice of them to put a nice “gate” sign over this gate. In case you drive right up to it and can’t tell what it is.


We got some brave pilots here.
“Low -flying aircraft” you say? You might need some slightly shorter signs then if they’re still hitting these.


Almost anything.
I don’t wanna harp on them too much for being able to repair anything except a bell, maybe the bell’s parts are hard to come by. Or they just prefer a nice old knock on the door.


What sort of conveniences are we talking here?
What convenient placing here. It’s funny, though, cause either way I’ll just be standing around waiting for my turn.
