Post photos of signs I think are amusing, infuriating, have great double meanings, etc.

Not really a sign, but…

A piece of junk mail I received a few months ago. Really? You thought that the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (based in Washington D.C.) just might live at my house in Colorado?!

Oops, I forgot that I took this one. This was on a shop in the old section of the medium-sized town where I live.

“Wens” is bad enough as an abbreviation for Wednesday, but “Teus” for Tuesday? And you paid someone to paint this on your store window?!

I could have sworn that I posted this already, but if I did it wasn’t under the right goal!

This is a sign I saw next to the trail around the lake in Evergreen, CO. It seems pretty straightforward, but…

Again, not really a sign, but… It’s my goal, so I can include what I want ;)

This is painted on the wall of my local library. Love it!! I need to get this put on a plaque or something and hang it in my house :D

Not exactly a sign, but close enough ;)

My sister has had this hanging in her house for years. I don’t know where she got it, but if you’re making crafts to sell, shouldn’t you at least spell the words correctly?!

Using an apostrophe -s for a plural (“friends,” means more than one friend, not “friend’s”) is already one of my pet grammar peeves, but using an apostrophe just because the base word itself ends in the letter -s? And if they really thought that “preciou’s” was correct, why didn’t they write “antique’s”?

This plaque would drive me nuts. I’d either have to fix it or toss it :D

This sign, about a New Years Day special, has been posted in front of a business near me for at least 2 years.

Wouldn’t you think that a psychic should know that this isn’t going to be an effective marketing technique? ;)

An interesting sign that I noticed while window shopping in Glenwood Springs, CO one evening near the end of my last vacation.

If you can’t tell the difference between a moose and a deer (or even an elk), you sure have no business carrying a rifle around!

Taken on Kenosha Pass in Colorado.

Whose Who’s wrong?

What do you think- was this intended to be misspelled to emphasize the message of “wrong”-

Or is it just that the person putting up the sign doesn’t know that the contraction of “you are” is “you’re,” not “your?”

Personally, I’m guessing it’s the latter ;)

“Landromat?”

I think that if I was going to paint a sign on the side of my business, I’d make sure it was spelled correctly!

I saw this somewhere in Kansas, returning from the Midwest last spring.
