This happened here in Houston this past week:


The Monday morning message attracted plenty of attention, but it was the four-letter word a few days ago that really had people laughing out loud.

It is funny, but it'd go a lot better if they got permission first. Course, if I owned the sign company I'd be doing that anyways. XD

When I first read about this article, the first thing that went through my mind was "Someone must be a fan of "Crayon Shin-Chan"! :lol:

Ok, so if this were legal, then what do you think people should put up on these signs, whether for comedy or some other beneficial aspect?

"Turn right here left."

Reminds me of a prank a couple of friends in my youth group and I pulled, back when. We were at a youth conference in the middle of winter, and our host family's house was just across the street from the church where it was held. There was a big hill in front of the church so you had to go up it to get there. Well, we were out of the house one night and we went to the hill and tracked the word "POOP" really huge in the snow. The next morning everyone saw it. It was awesome.

Only problem was, we also tracked our footprints from the hill straight back to our host family's house. I guess they were pretty fried but they had the grace not to yell at us or anything.

If I did that, I would put "UNICORN CROSSING" on it.
