Funny Signs, Bananas Banners, and Loony Logos

 

Ever seen an unintentionally funny sign that made you go "What?!!"

Perhaps you remember the infamous "Cruise Ships Use Airport Exit" freeway sign outside of San Diego?

 This lens is dedicated to the weird phrases that people try to cram onto billboards, banners, and signs.

 It is inspired by the fabulous old FunnySign.com website.

 If you have any funny signs, please upload them to a Flickr account (they're free!) and then submit them at the bottom of the page.

Here's a few bizarre photos I've taken.

Funny street sign: Where the sidewalk ends

Corona Del Mar, CA: Skateboarders must love this spot. I approve of leaving the tree alone, though.

Funny parking notice
Alewife T-station, Boston. Wait. Where do large cars enter the building?

Hi, I'm Greekgeek

Greekgeek

Join my fan club

Graduate student with MAs in classics and mythological studies currently working on a PhD -- what a mouthful! -- I try to be a bard and storyteller for the modern world.

My lenses reflect my eclectic interests -- classical studies and mythology, depth psychology, art history, web design, teaching and humor, writing, computer graphics, and thoughtful ways to help the environment and the world. Oh yes, and baseball. Don't get me started on baseball.

My main lens, Ancient Greece Odyssey, traces my own journey through Greece after many years studying its ancient art, literature, myths and gods.

I create my lenses for several reasons -- to share my passions, to
teach, and to help pay for books and cat food. (The cat's name is Samhain... give yourself a pat on the back if you know what it means without googling it!)

This is a certified gold star lens, which means it's the best of its kind on Squidoo (or shows some serious potential for getting there!)
