Signs have been around for a long time, and it seems like they’re going to be around for a while longer just yet. That doesn’t mean that people always take the time to read them. If anything, plenty of folks have such short attention spans nowadays, the only way to actually get someone to slow down and read a sign is to make it a bit more further out of left field. This series of signs didn’t rely in any way on keeping things within the cookie-cutter kind of mold.

1. Best of luck to everyone out there, seems to be a cold night indeed

2. Yes, please regard the cat, indeed

A sign in a swimming pool viewing gallery titled “Regarding the cat in the viewing gallery” explains that a cat watches swimming lessons from seat 4 and requests that visitors do not sit there; below is a photo of a tabby cat in that seat.

3. Seriously though, which way do I walk?

4. This fire department means business

A fire station with several parked vehicles and a sign reading, "Satisfaction guaranteed or your fire back." The station is a red brick building with large windows. The address "313 S. Elm Street" is shown on the sign.

5. Well, at least they’ll last year-round

Stacks of gray and blue plastic lawn chairs are displayed for sale outside. Above them is a sign for perennials, which seems unrelated to the chairs. One stack of chairs is priced at $24.97.

6. Harvesting minds then, are you?

A sign for "Cradle to Crayons Learning Center" stands between two giant crayon sculptures. The message board reads: "HARVESTING LITTLE MINDS". Trees and playground equipment are visible in the background.

7. Ah, so that’s the origin story of happiness, then, is it?

8. Just to be clear, you’re sure about that, are you?

11. It appears that someone crashed into the ACE Hardware store.

A storefront with boarded-up windows displays a sign that reads, “WE ARE OPEN PLEASE PARK OUTSIDE.” The entrance door is glass, and a yellow pole stands near the entrance on the sidewalk.

12. Makes enough sense

A storefront window sign reads: "Business Hours. OPEN when we're here. CLOSED when we're not." A car wheel and part of a sidewalk are reflected in the glass.

13. It appears that they have all the bases covered

A white sign with purple text listing different types of bites: Dog Bite, Cat Bite, Human Bite, Tic Bite, Spider Bite, Mosquito Bite, and Fish Bite. The top right corner of the sign is curled.

14. Now that’s a full commit if I’ve ever seen one

A runner at an outdoor event has a sign on their back that reads, "If I collapse, please PAUSE my GARMIN :)." Other people around are smiling and taking photos, with one woman giving a thumbs up.

15. Yes, this is very convincing. Nothing suspicious in the slightest.

Matt has spent over the last 8 years as both a writer and editor, working in Seattle and Brooklyn, where he is now based. He loves escaping the tirelessly fast pace of the “Mad Apple” that is NYC by taking walks and runs through parks where he’s able to catch up on the latest tea about society from the city’s ever chatty, always hungry, occasionally maniacal, pigeons. They always have a lot to say. When he’s not taking his urban nature strolls, or dutifully combing the deepest rabbit holes of the internet to find the content that’s worth sinking your mind’s teeth into, he’s likely holed up at a dark-lit dive bar with a new book and/or some friends, or just as easily he could be on the hunt for the next addition to his steadily growing plant family.

These days Matt’s caught up in trying to provide folks as many vivid glimpses into the days long since passed as he can, through fun and engaging collections of hand-picked vintage photos.
