Funny signs

Hard to explain why I found this funny. More like charming and understandable. I found the italian piquant - Italian is a lovely language to me, visually and to my ears. When I took the photo I couldn't get every word but got the gist of the message.

A sign in the Oltrarno area of Florence:




Vergogna!

Si vergognino gli incivili che ogni giorno portano i propri cani a riempire questa pubblica via di nauseabondi escremente che puntualamente non raccolgono.
Si vergognino gli insensibili che infischiandosene di opportune leggi communali, dei buon senso e degli altri lordano questa graciosa stradina anche dinanza a usci di casi e di negoze.
Si vergognino. Perche’ se i cani conducessero i loro padroni de racatterebbero la merda.

Un abitate di Via de Sapiti

My rough translation -

Shame!

They shame themselves, the uncivil who every day take their dogs to fill up this publc way with foul smelling excrement that they do not regularly collect.
They shame themselves, the insensible who don’t give a damn about appropriate communal laws of good sense and they soil this gracious path in front of homes and businesses too.
They shame themselves. Why if they are leading the dogs are their owners (not) gathering the ****.

An inhabitant of Via de Sapiti

You can say that again!

Oh wait.....

Ossobuco... it's a shame their signs elegant message is undermined by the cheapness of their unofficial signage.

I feel almost compelled to send the sign maker some money to turn this cheap and unofficial printed letter of protest to a real official sign that would actually be noticed and perhaps even obeyed by the dog owners who are presently flaunting the dog poop-pickerup based bylaws in the first place.

Yes, it was just an irritated person tacking a sign up..

There was a sign in a park in Lucca with a similar strong point of view that I also took a photo of, but, alas, that was the roll I double exposed. That sign was much more official looking.

Another lost photo - once on a trip a bunch of us took to Las Vegas from Los Angeles, we pulled over to a roadside convenience stop. The ladies room door said:

WOMEN
No Dogs Allowed


to explain, no. 7 in the urban dictionary usage for the word dog is "ugly woman or man" - a connotation that seems less used now

This isn't a funny sign, but it's funny and I took a picture of it.

In the Athens airport, several airport personnel were smoking under a sign that said, "No Smoking"

Only in Australia.

This belongs in the bad joke thread.

Are viagra pills blue?

Yes.

I wouldn't know as I never seen one in person.
