Funny Signs?!?

Post by chuckybrown »

Saw a sign today in front of a store in Refugio that said "Diabetic Shoes".

I didn't even know shoes could get diabetes..... :headscratch

My mother told of a sign she saw in Bandera in the 1940s - - - it said "Free Dancing Beer" I have been looking all my life for some of that dancing beer. "rlol"

Dancing banana yes.
Dancing bear yes.
Dancing beer...?
I believe the basic political division in this country is not between liberals and conservatives but between those who believe that they should have a say in the personal lives of strangers and those who do not.

Father-in-Law and I were heading to a catfish place in North Dallas that we used to frequent....

Saw a sign for the pub a few doors down that read:

"Free Beer!"

We altered course, got inside and yes... It was the name of the band playing that night... :lol:

This sign would be appropriate in Forney and Gladewater, Texas since they are both full of antique stores:

WE BUY JUNK
and SELL ANTIQUES


*********************************************************************************************************************************

Of course I always feel badly driving through neighborhoods where the sign alerts me to

SLOW CHILDREN.

It's so sad. :-)

The better one, from a humor perspective is "Slow Children Playing", no punctuation.

Not really a funny sign, but an example of location planning. On 75 in Dallas, right around Walnut Hill, is The Casket Store. In the same strip mall, two doors down, is Boxes To Go. I always thought that was humorous.
Ben Franklin once stated that beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy. I tend to agree with him.

They recently fixed the one in Alvin at a shop that did air conditioner repair, but for years it said "We fix cold AC".

I used to feel bad for the Slow Children. Worried they would never amount to much but then I saw a sign one day that changed it all. It said:

SLOW MEN WORKING so I guess the kids grew up and got jobs,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, "rlol"
