"showroom"


Budjette saw this one in the Philippines. I'm not sure what they want to "show" you, but it's probably not good.

not that secret


Patrick saw this in a Pirate Themed store (I know, awesome). I guess if they tell you about the compartments, they stopped being secret...

assumed name aesthetician


Submitter Ryan has a point that the fake named person is less perplexing than the flavored pedicure.

what works?


Ari spotted this on someone's lawn in London, ON. I'm not sure if the fridge works, or maybe if putting the word free on something gets someone to haul it away.

"anything"


Thy hyphen is the most perplexing part of this sign. In addition to the question of what you are supposed to use steel wool on, and why it is around at all. Thanks, Clayton.

sign is not door


so wait, which door? I'm confused. Thanks, Pete.

message for you, sir


I think calling it a very brief "message" either means it's really brief, or actually it's brief as long sermons go. Thanks, Chase.

size doesn't matter


Lee spotted this one. I guess they just look larger.

"no smoking"


I think this one means: if you light up around here, there WILL be smoking and I don't think you're gonna like it. Thanks, Joseph.

oh man!


There we were, in Saint Paul on my birthday trip, eating birthday ice cream, and I started jumping up and down right there on Grand Street. I found one! All by myself! (the truth is, guys, you find all of them, I just gather them). So my new friend Kari posed and I took a jubilant picture, and now I'm posting it. I think I've posted this sign before though, and I don't even care.
