There are lots of people out there that are sick and tired of others walking through their property. If you live in the city or the suburbs, this is usually just cutting through a yard to get home or to the store, but in the country, there can be a lot more.
People might hunt or pick food from your property, and sometimes you just don’t want that. Sure, you can put up a fence, but fences can be climbed or circumvented. How about a sign that warns of bodily harm if you don’t pay attention? That might just do it.
Who Knows What Will Happen?
It's a good idea to follow safety signs whenever they're posted. This one seems like a particularly good one to follow, just because of the artwork. Don't go swimming or a terrible nest of sea snakes will drag you down to the depths.
Maybe this sign is also a warning – don't go swimming, or this sodden, dripping, drowned man will come and get you. He has a lot of pamphlets about how dangerous it is to swim in some places. This sign is from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, which means this sign might be warning you of hungry, hungry gators.
Thanks for the Warning
Is it a warning? Maybe it's a promise. This sign says that there are river monsters. The water beyond doesn't even look like a river – it looks more like a big lake or a sea. So why would this sign be so close to water if it isn't even a river? It's like you can't trust anybody these days.
And what would the purpose of the sign be? River monsters wanted, perhaps? We don't know about you, but we don't see a whole lot of river monsters these days. Not even in rivers. They're all retiring and getting houses upstate.
Be the Only One Left
In an effort to reduce the amount of illegal and dangerous substances that are in certain parts of the country, a few signs have gone up. One of them seems to implore dealers to turn in their competition – and we are sure that they will be let off Scot-free.
This is, of course, also a sign to notify regular dealers that there is a hotline for reporting these scoundrels and ruffians, and the little bit of humor that it uses is a good way to make it memorable for everyone who drives past. Maybe they even got some takers.
Making the Best of a Bad Situation
If you're like every well-minded person around the world, there were a couple of years when you were sick to death of wearing one of those stupid masks, and you will gladly avoid doing so again. Still, the masks did have one really important advantage – they made some people look a lot more attractive.
If they can't see your mouth, they can't see your snaggletooth, your coffee stains, or whatever else you have hiding under there. All you have to do is maintain eye contact, and you'll be golden. Still, if you don't wear a mask, you'll be able to breathe. The decision is yours.
