Save Me a Seat
Remember when you were a kid and you asked your best friend to save you a seat so that you wouldn’t end up sitting alone? This is the same thing only for the elderly. We never grow out of wanting to sit next to our own kind, apparently.
This restaurant obviously knows its clientele and has marked their territory with this hilarious sign. The good people around this table with their cups of coffee seem like they have been sitting there since the beginning of time. We just hope this doesn’t bother other customers and make them start thinking about passing any gas while they’re eating.
Keep It Elegant
Much has been made of Japan's culture, which is why you'll only find such a polite yet peculiar sign in Japan. Elsewhere, you would be most likely greeted with a sign that read "Please aim in the toilet and clean up after yourself". But no, these guys are kindly asking you "urinate with precision and elegance."
It seems like a fair request, it is in Japan after all, where the highest goal is not distinction, but synthesis and harmony. There’s a Japanese proverb that goes: “The nail that sticks out gets hammered down.” Japan’s collectivist society values group harmony and unity more than the desires of the individual, like um, some other cultures we know.
Aren't You Happy to Be Home, Mom?
Thank god these kids are as cute as they are because coming home to do laundry is probably not what this mom had in mind. However, it was extremely adorable of them to make a welcome home sign by themselves (judging by the garbage truck and tractor drawing on the sign).
In fact, it was so important for them to greet their mom that they even went commando! And hey, they just wanted to let mommy know about the current state of affairs at home — which is that daddy apparently couldn't figure out how to work a washing machine.
Blowing Off Some Steam
This clothing store should call someone to check on their lighting situation because we’re not sure what kind of people it’s going to attract as a “Swearhouse.” Sounds like a perfect place to blow off some steam. Also, the suits in the window class up the joint, so you know you’re going to be mixing with some high-class clientele while doing your swearing.
Hey mister, just because bad words are allowed doesn’t mean this is a shabby place. You know what? We think they should leave the lights as is. There seem to be a lot of interesting business opportunities in the Swearhouse.
Trivial Pursuit
Endless stretches of road and long hours in the car can make anyone sleepy. Especially if you are in the middle of a long road trip along the never-ending roads of Australia. These signs liven things up with some exciting trivia questions and you can impress your friends and family with your general knowledge.
Driving will be more fun, and that road trip will go by in a jiffy. Not to mention it will keep you on your toes with the thrill of an impromptu game. We’re not sure why these signs aren’t more popular. This must be the most boring stretch of road in all of Queensland.
