45 Funny Signage Fails Courtesy Of People Who Didn't Bother Thinking Their Messages Through
Try making sense of them, but don't hurt yourself in the process.
Some signs are so badly worded that they stop making sense the second you read them. You stare, reread, and still end up more confused than when you started.
That is exactly the kind of chaos people love sharing in the Don't Dead Open Inside subreddit, a 641K-member corner of the internet built around awkward, misleading, and unintentionally hilarious messages. The whole thing traces back to a now-famous The Walking Dead poster that turned a simple warning into a viral joke.
Below, you'll find 45 funny signage fails that prove bad wording can be its own kind of entertainment. Read on, and try not to overthink any of them.
