Preferably pictures you took yourself. Here's one I found that made me do a triple take before I got it. Okay, even then someone had to explain what they were actually trying to say here.

Um, while engrish.com photos are surely funny, it may be better to use photos of our own. Just to avoid litigation, if nothing else (although it could be said that since engrish.com already has all of those photos it's probably just easier to go there than to repost them here...?)

― Sean Carruthers (SeanC), Saturday, 14 December 2002 02:36 (twenty-two years ago)

Only slightly off-topic... there was a street sign near my high school in Claremont, CA that read "Undulations Ahead", in reference to imminent speed bumps (er, I mean sleeping policeman). I laughed then, I laugh now. Anyone in that neck of the woods to post a pic?

took this along the highway somewhere in oregon a couple of years ago. not until very recently did someone point out to me that maybe they were selling weed and cutely disguising it as poor spelling

HAHAHA! "cr0n"... best new term of 2003!

Oh, my apologies... You said *signs*... My bad, must start reading thoroughly.

― cprek, Saturday, 14 December 2002 19:32 (twenty-two years ago)

It's not a sign, it's a flyer I got in the mail last year, but it probably fits in here.

Oh and the sentence on the front that ends in "..." remains a cliffhanger. To this day, I wonder what happened when their tastes exploded.

I like Stevem's MEGAFLICKS one (doesn't work with a serif font). I was saying just the other day that if I were writing superhero comics, I'd have a character named Clint Flicker, just to keep the letterers on their toes.

THE BEST HAND JOB IN TOWN

― Rubyredd, Monday, 6 August 2007 04:02 (eighteen years ago)

i forget what the context of this is, but it was on my cameraphone:

Sorry about the crappy quality of my cameraphone, but this is a flyer I saw in Huddle House when I visited my hometown of Farmington, MO for the first time in a couple years:
