One Mexican restaurant in Austin, Texas knows that it’s good to laugh.
El Arroyo has been serving up a side of chuckles with its marquee sign for years now.
Rather than promote their food, the sign features an ever-changing array of jokes and puns.
Over the years, Austin residents have grown accustomed to driving past the sign and having a laugh.
We’ve included 11 recent signs the restaurant has put up that we found particularly amusing.
One day I’ll wake up rich!
Don’t we all wish this would happen? One day it’s going to happen.
One day all of my goals and desires will have been achieved simply because I woke up from a good night’s rest.
Nobody is ever ready in 5 minutes
If somebody tells you they will be ready in five minutes, they are lying to you.
It never happens. Five minutes means, at least, 20 minutes.
If they say 20 minutes, that means at least 45 minutes if not an hour.
If they say an hour, they aren’t coming and probably aren’t your friend anymore.
Kids are not efficient with words
Maybe it’s because they haven’t been around as much as the rest of us, but kids seem to have no respect for other people’s time.
They never get right to the heart of a story.
A lot of the stories they tell aren’t interesting either.
I try not to listen to them about anything.
One day, you might be defined by your text messages
Sending text messages might seem harmless, but remember you are carving those messages into stone, and they could come back to haunt you someday.
You can complain, but you still have to do it
Any difficult task is made more enjoyable by complaining about it in a funny way.
Swearing also helps.
Saying you’re over it and being over it are two totally different things
The drunk version of you holds grudges that the sober version of you has completely forgotten about.
Everything you learned in school is wrong
Most of the things we were told we needed to know as kids are now on YouTube.
Just type up what you need to know when you need to know it.
I don’t even know why we’re bothering with school anymore.
It’s not like it’s working. We’re still pretty dumb.
What did we ride before horses?
This is a good question. You know someone was like, “Hey guy, I bet if I sat on the back of that cheetah, I could get around really fast.”
And that person then became a week’s worth of food for a whole coalition of cheetahs.
A group of cheetahs is called a coalition, I looked it up.
It’s good to keep things consistent
Order your romantic partners like you order up a taco and you will never be disappointed.
Or maybe you will, it really depends on your expectations going in.
Yeah, baby!
This would be a fun name to give the city’s utilities.
Even when the power goes out in the winter and people are distressed, everyone can repeat their favorite Austin Powers catchphrases to stay warm.
We learn more from our mistakes
It’s true that we learn more from our failures than we do from our successes.
This means that the smartest people in the world are old people who have failed a lot.
We should all seek the sage wisdom and guidance of the world’s greatest failures.
