Sign Funnies


Just a few fun signs to share with you from our Indiana get-away:
For the life of me, I can't imagine why anyone would want to burn this incense.
And yes, I smelled it. You would have too.
And NO, it didn't.
I know some friends who would not think this a very funny joke. 
This one was polite, and how well I can appreciate the angst that caused the owner to pen and tack this sign right at eye level.
But how to tell where some item would actually belong?
I think there's some blame shifting is going on...
Then the signage got a little bit violent. 
I think it's probably better to find another income source if you find yourself
printing out messages like this one to your shoppers.
But I didn't say so.

Out of Order

(found at the 127 Corridor Sale in the booth of a man who was busily stuffing miniature marshmallows into 'marshmallow guns')

Free Bear Rides



We found this bear in a sunny spot in the back of a Tennessee antique-junk shop. 
Of course, I had already 'petted' him more than once before noticing THE WARNING SIGN.
I wasn't feeling hospitality flowing around the shop.
Love the last forbidding line: 'Other such abusive acts'
Seems like most of what you could do to a stuffed bear was covered in the other lines...
You have to wonder about the thought process behind this sign - really. Would someone who would engage in pulling toes off a stuffed bear, in full sight of the owner, really bother to  read and be cautioned by this sign? 
Or does it just spark 
ideas 
and the beginnings of rebellious disobedience? 
I guess you know what I think. 
Seems like RIDING might be an option...
