This guy makes signs and then stands next to them and then blogs about it. Pretty interesting, I thought.

Can you think of any amusing or thought provoking signs? Why not write them here. Or better yet, make some.

Recent homemade signs on telephone poles in my town:

"Smiling is not cost-effective."
"To create profit you must create problems."
"Statistically speaking, the person you are with is either a terrorist or has an STD."
"This could have been the best day of your life."
"GET BACK TO WORK."
"Trust no one...[...]...we know what's best for you."
"Is this all there is for you?"

It's one guy with a printer, and no explanation given. Been going on for a couple of months now.

Yeah, they seem like the work of one guy. They are all pretty negative. :lol:

I guess he's trying to make a point.

Someone once told me to never trust anyone until you know you can. He was one of those people who would get filthy rich and then somehow lose all his money. And he did that many times during his life until one day he died neither rich or poor.

"I was bored so i made a sign"

"This is a sign"

"Here's your sign"

"This is my hobby"

"This is a statement, can you guess what it is?"

I like that idea. I like the money one--money is a concept most people really don't understand.

My suggestions:
-"Could you be doing something more worthwhile?"
-"Be where you are."
-"Did you forget something?"

I would like to hold a sign stating:
"What are you looking at?"
