Funny Signs from Around the World

From bizarre and inane to clever and cheeky, here are some funny signs from around the world.

Flippin Arkansas

Yes, Flippin, Arkansas really exists. It's a town of about 1300 nestled in the Ozark Mountains. It might be worth moving and a career change just to say I was the Flippin Mayor, a Flippin Cop or a Flippin Pastor.

Lost in Translation

Translations can be really funny, epically when they they are nonsensical or unknowingly have double meanings.

I have no idea what this means. Not even a guess.

Think Before Creating a Sign

These signs raise the question: "What were you thinking?"

Some things really do not need explaining.
