Signs of HumorCarol McDaneldOct 1, 20241 min readUpdated: Oct 13, 2024Sometimes, the message gets lost in translation. Here are a few of our favorite signs, to be updated as we go:… because this is the way to her heart.I’m not sure why the sign says “No Parking” (E for estacionar - parking in Spanish) since it’s obviously possible …Ladies, don’t trust the chicheria.… unless you lift with your legs, not your back.Just go elsewhere.If that light turns red, it’s already too late.It can hardly catch at all, and you don’t want it to throw anything back at you. … because this door is too close to outside ?…it’s what’s for dinner.But seriously, it’s a bad idea to flush the chain. Don’t try this at home. In Patagonia, the rock is always swinging.
I love this sort of thing. As a designer - I'm always noticing poor word, color and image choice in public signage. A crime that happens WAY too often!
