At SmartSign, we\u2019re sign geeks: safety, security, custom, funny, dog poop, funny dog poop \u2013 you name it. You could call us academicians of signage; tenured professors of labels, mats, tags and banners. We view signs as game changers, and even lifesavers. Plus, nothing soothes the soul (besides a personal pint of Ben & Jerry\u2019s) like a resplendent sign that oozes shtick and humor. It\u2019s been quite some time since we\u2019ve published a Friday roundup of our favorite funny signs. To spice up your 26th<\/sup> day of April, sit back (but not too far back, you might tip over and embarrass yourself) and prepare for a treat. Since it\u2019s my birthday, I also sprinkled in some of my semi-famous haikus (known to many as \u201cMaikus\u201d).<\/p>\n

Big tent down the road<\/strong>
\n Human cannonball recruit<\/strong>
\n Kid on milk carton<\/strong><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a history lesson: the first human cannonball was 14 years old<\/a>. Keep your kids close \u2013 after all, what goes up must come down.<\/p>\n

I told you homeboy<\/strong>
\n Work hard or might as well quit<\/strong>
\n‘Cuz you can\u2019t touch this<\/strong><\/p>\n

Picture yourself riding around town, windows down, bass pumping to MC Hammer\u2019s 1990\u2019s hip hop anthem<\/a>. You approach a four-way intersection, and the regular message stop sign has been swapped for this one. I suggest you contact the local authorities, because errant use of hammers can result in unfortunate consequences (to avoid such mishaps, refer to this handy guide<\/a>. Pun intended).<\/p>\n

Sale on new perfume<\/strong>
\n One scent for men and women<\/strong>
\n Most fragrant when fresh<\/strong><\/p>\n

No wonder that perfume\u2019s a clearance item. Pick up what your dog drops down, and don\u2019t be the one to blame for getting in a poopy mood.<\/p>\n

Scandinavia<\/strong>
\n No love for Iceland, Norway<\/strong>
\n Denmark gently weeps<\/strong><\/p>\n

I promise it\u2019s not because we favor Swedish Fish over a fresh baked cheese Danish; just imagine how the Finns feel, excluded from this haiku\u2019s Scandinavian family altogether. It seems as though we need to add a few more signs to our inventory.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
