Landmark signs are a big tourist attraction — for some reason, people love reading that something happened precisely where they were standing 500 years ago. Think about it — why else would so many people visit Plymouth Rock?
Perhaps it’s their way of feeling like a part of history? At least this lawn knows that it has nothing to offer and declares as much. No one can claim that the place is overhyped when the actual landowner literally advertises it as the place where nothing happened. Imagine driving hundreds of miles just to see this sign! Totally worth it in our opinion!
Sweet Dreams
This is a pretty charming way to ask people to stay off the grass politely. Charming yet a little passive-aggressive, no doubt. What kind of monster would ever think to step on tiny grass and wake it while it sleeps? Not us, that's for sure!
We are a little puzzled about something here — the sign seems to be hanging on a bamboo pole in a bamboo pile. Was the sign actually ironic about the bamboo being the "tiny grass"? Or, if there is, indeed, tiny grass off the frame that is currently busy sleeping, woulnd't a sign be more effective if it was placed in the actual grass?
Mission Statement
Look, we are all for free speech. It's just that it's a human right we wish fewer people exercised. Just because you have a political opinion, doesn't mean you have to discuss it with your friends or neighbors or your kids' PTA. When you're sick and tired of your neighbors asking you who you're voting for — this is the sign to put up.
The fact of the matter is, you're simply not convinced any of the candidates running are worthy, and you cannot be bothered to explain why for the 50th time this week, so you found a sign that does it for you!
This Could All Be Yours
Many times when people do yard sales they try to make it as if the whole thing was designed for your personal gain. But, let's face it: no one is bending anyone's arm here. These people are just trying to get rid of their stuff, and most of their stuff, is, well, probably rubbish.
We mean, why would they be getting rid of it otherwise? Why would you sell something that is useful and operating? At least this sign just tells it like it is, you gotta appreciate the honesty. And hey, maybe someone could find some use for a frying pan with no handle.
The Kindness of Strangers
Being alive for as long as we have has taught us many different lessons, one of them being that you really can NOT count on the kindness of strangers. But life can surprise you sometimes. Even thieves can change their ways, as you can see in these two corresponding signs.
All this person had to do was to ask nicely and he got his wheelbarrow back! All that was left was to thank those who returned it with yet another sign. And hey, maybe the person who took it wasn't a thief at all and intended to bring it back once they were finished.
