Funny signs
On the way to work this morning, I was once again stuck in traffic - as usual. Traffic on the freeway I use for my commute moves slowly, but it does move. There are also a fair number of long-haul semis in the traffic mix, too. All those big rigs have a rather small sign on the outside of one of the doors in the cab that reads "Fire Extinguisher Inside". Well, today I looked over at the truck in the lane next to me and saw a big sign on the door that read "FIRE PUTTER-OUTER IN HERE!" I couldn't get my phone's camera trained on it before the truck exited the freeway.
One reason traffic crawls on this particular freeway is that it is in the process of being "reworked and expanded". That means lots of interference from heavy equipment, including some ginormous dump trucks. Today I was behind one of those behemoths that had a sign on the back reading "Do NOT follow truck into construction zone!" This is a problem? What - the Pied Piper is driving the damned thing? Didn't manage to get this one on pixels, either.
Finally, two signs that I DID actually manage to get a record of. Both of these were on air conditioning equipment.

Unless you like that kind of thing, of course.
Get a room!

Where are our minds that we all smile and smirk? Thanks for the laugh.

I must confess I have a kinky streak. Now I HAVE to fork under a coil just to see what it feels like.

LOL... the construction thing had C. suggesting that I just post WTF?
And I agree.

Bwahahahaha! Man, don't you wish you could just blink your eyes and take pictures sometimes? It would be so awesome to never miss a shot!
Thanks for reporting on the ones you missed too. Too, too funny!
