  • Spotted this slightly modified sign on a ferry years ago. I always appreciate a subtle grammar change that gives a new meaning.

    Update Oct 2025 … my son was on the ferry and noticed this was still there, almost 20 years later!


  • Missing Chickens

    I love a good sign, especially a handmade one. This was spotted in my neighbourhood the other day. I do hope the owner and chickens were reunited 🍗


  • Camping Wifi

    I saw this sign while camping a number of years ago and was sadly excited that I could get connectivity … then I realized it was just an amphitheatre icon.

    Unfortunately with ever expanding WiFi and cellular coverage, it is harder to unplug.


  • I spotted this warning sign in a small Alaskan town and appreciated how the designer made it angry electricity attacking a young child. Not exactly comforting, nor technically accurate, but hopefully keeps people from trying to open it!


  • The Media

    I like to collect photos of random signs that I’ve seen around the world. Though crude, this sign is probably more true each day.

    Taking a break from news this lent has made me realize how much my media consumption was consuming my mental capacity, and probably increasing my anxiety too.
