Signs, probably one of the only things in this world that are born with good intentions. They are there to direct us, instruct us and above all else offer some sort of protection. For some it is a simple direction which protects us from getting lost, for others they are life-saving instructions which without we would be utterly lost.

But what happens when these signs are created by humans who only have half a brain? Well, things get a little squirely and those signs that we so deeply depend on, suddenly become tragically hilarious monuments to epic fails. And today we have gathered a collection of some of those signs who lost their way, either during their creation or after, once they were put out in the world for the half-brained humans of this world to mess with. Either way, they represent the whimsy and silliness of human nature and that is something to smile about.

  • You have to wonder whether this was the act of someone who thoroughly disagreed with the content of this sign. Or if nature had enough of human interference and simply outgrew the sign. Either way, several people will be wondering what they are not meant to do at this location.

    A WARNING NO DIVING! Shallow water. You can be permanently injured. Okay Which of you made THIS sign necessary?

  • Some warning signs like this truly hurt to look at. Especially when you take a moment to imagine what on earth could have caused the proprietor to install such a sign. It is safe to say that no one would be all too pleased to walk into a bathroom where someone tried to dive head first into a toilet.
