During my travels, I see a lot of funny things. I see mountain ranges called "The Crazy Mountains," I see bumper stickers that cover cars from head to toe, and I see a lot of odd signs.
A LOT of odd signs.
Either misspelled or just plain funny, there seems to be a lot of oddness in the Idaho area, but most of the madness comes from my fine hometown of Idaho Falls.
Some of these are new, some of these are not, but all of them made me laugh:

| Exact Change Only, please. |

| Written on the wall in an Idaho bar... |
 |
| Readerboard at a Vet's office. |

A bridal shop in downtown IF. I called and asked to
speak with Treasure, since it must be her store, and got
yelled at... |

 |

 |
| Makes total sense! |

| ...win. |
Do you have any odd or funny signs in your town? If so, please share their message with a comment below...
Ahahah how would you know there was a fire in your room or not if you couldn't distinguish it?
ReplyDeleteBut I needed letters for my signs, Sorry Pit Stop!
ReplyDeleteI have multiple fire distinguishers. First my eyes, when that doesn't work, anything that I touch and register as "ouch hot" gets the job.
ReplyDeleteWhere exactly can one find a fire distinguisher?
ReplyDeleteYou can buy 6 packs of booze at the gas pump?!? That's a great and terrifying idea. And Two Guy's Plowing really didn't think that through.
ReplyDeleteThere's a pool store next to me who should have invested in one more "L" as they're named "Poolife". Which was my gang name after I pooped during the initiation.
Actually, I might be interested in having a few of my weird friends spayed and neutered. Are they running any specials? Two for one?
ReplyDeleteI have one. A vietnamese restaurant called: Pho Shizzle. Really?
ReplyDeleteI've seen some pretty distinguished fires in my time.
ReplyDeleteIf I have a pen with me I will ALWAYS correct the types of grammar mistakes you saw at the liquor store. Someone has to teach them a lesson.

Can't think of any weird signs but I am sure there are plenty in Phoenix. On the other hand, I am so glad they are not only spaying and neutering cats and dogs, but weird friends and relatives. I have a few who need it.
ReplyDeleteit pains me to see such high gas prices. steal gas not letters.
ReplyDeleteI thought giant inflatable dinosaurs were extinct. Thankfully, they are just slashing prices.
ReplyDeleteOver here every sign has to also appear in Welsh... which leads to some odd translations especially when the out of office message from the translation service is mistaken for the correct translation and then printed out on hundreds of signs.
ReplyDelete2 Guys Plowing - THAT IS FECKING FANTASTIC. HAHAHAHA.
ReplyDeleteI have a personal fave in my town. I give a little smile every time I drive by Sewing, BJ's & Alterations. <-- That's how it reads.
"Sweetheart, is that a fire?"
ReplyDelete"I don't know, I don't have my glasses on... is that a fire?"
Lol man, the last three signs made me laugh out loud.
In the car park of my local shopping centre there is a gate and it has a sign on it saying "this gate must be open or closed at all times" hmmm what else would a gate be doing LOL
ReplyDeleteThe fire distinguisher is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteIt seems a little time-consuming though.
On our way to go camping on the Mogollon Rim in Arizona, we always pass this sign in Star Valley:
ReplyDeleteOh, yeah!
Two guys plowing....priceless! And disgusting!
ReplyDeleteThere's an auto place by me that posts awful jokes on their billboard.
ReplyDeleteThis week's was "I stopped a robbery today. I changed my mind."
I can't even rimshot that.
You missed the best sign! Warning to Tourists, Do not laugh at the natives. The sign outside the uhaul/storage place on woodruff is funny quite a bit.
ReplyDeleteActually, E, that's on my list. But it's such an awesome sign, I'm saving it for a post by itself.
ReplyDeleteActually her name really is Treasure Johnson.
ReplyDeleteI think you could do a separate post on the strange names that Mormons give their kids.
All Washington State Ferry Terminals have a sign reminding riders that "you are responsible for the proper disposition of all firearms."
ReplyDeleteAs long as your rifles are peppy and optimistic, then we're good!
