Funny signs are all around us. They're lurking in the streets, at restaurants, on the subway, and pretty much everywhere else, waiting to surprise us with a giggle or two. We just have to keep our eyes open.
But in case you want to know the places where they appear the most, let's take a look at the Facebook group 'Useless, Unsuccessful, and/or Unpopular Signage,' or 'UUU Signage' for short.
Whether they're intentional or accidental, the signs shared within the online community take many forms, from clever wordplay to unexpected interaction with their surroundings, so you just never know what's coming.
Continue scrolling to check them out and if you want more, fire up our first publication on 'UUU Signage!'
