12+ Perfectly Placed Signs

If we didn't have signs to guide us through life, we'd probably be okay up until the exact moment that we weren't. They do serve an important purpose. But when they show up where they're least expected — and least helpful — they can at least be amusing.

I mean, I've had better offers, and they haven't made me wonder who's making the overtures.

Okay, technically accurate.

Accurate, but not right. Somebody is going to end up with a lawsuit on their hands over this one. You know it.

I somehow doubt this is an ad for a Bon Jovi album.

In which case, this is just a dirty bathroom that you definitely shouldn't trust.

I'm sure some parents have been tempted in these stressful moments.

But please, that trash bin is for diapers, not for babies, even if the sign suggests it would be slam dunk.

A valiant attempt, good sir.

I don't think she saw the sign though — or maybe she saw a few that we didn't get to see.

Okay, I think I'd actually be down for these nuptials.
