"QUANTUM SHOT" #699
Link - by Avi Abrams




When asking for directions, be prepared to fall off the edge of the Universe

These are confusing, weird, bizarre signs and instructions, that are likely to deliver you to Vogons, who will gladly recite to you a poem, or two... Well, regardless, this is all the more material for our on-going, wildly popular series of Weird Signage. This is the 14th installment in the series; make sure to check the previous ones!

Even police puzzled by some of these road signs:







Entry... Exit... and a little disclaimer in the middle: "Sorry for any inconvenience":




Surprise! -



You Shall Not Pass! -





Sacred cows? -



Too many options:








This sign appropriately says "Funeral Home" (left):



Above right: all directions lead "Downtown"! (but, of course). Here, also, you'd think twice before entering -

You've Been Warned!

Warning signs are no joke - they keep us from harm and tell us the right thing to do in the circumstances... except when they are put together by some lunatics with a twisted sense of humor, or often, no sense at all:









How deadly? Go ahead, find out -



"If he will not chew you up, I will shoot you down!" -



"Careful: cats!" -

Convenient gender change:



Clever use of the gender symbols in the latest release from "She & Him":



-------

Lost in Translation, but Gained in Hilarity!





Fakes! -







Although, sometimes even signs in native English make us clearly wonder if we stumbled in parallel Universe:

Wacky & Wicked Storefronts and Labels



"Shirley Can't Surf" has been sent to us by Shirley Richard. She says: "This sign is from a real shop in Key West Florida. Since my name is Shirley I thought I would go and ask the owner about the sign. I asked, "What makes you think I cannot surf?' He said, "Because every Shirley that has walked into this shop can't surf and neither can my wife." I can't surf."

Why lie? -

Church signs do not disappoint:

More creativity for kids on a playground:



"Protect your child! There is a serial killer in your house! It's a COMPUTER!" -



"If you see someone drowning, throw him this!" Well, there supposed to be lifesavers, except that they were stolen, and now there is only... a brick? -
