I thought these were funny. Apparently they are actual signs through out the world.
In a Bangkok (Thailand) temple:
“IT IS FORBIDDEN TO ENTER A WOMAN, EVEN A FOREIGNER, IF DRESSED AS A MAN.”Cocktail lounge, Norway:
“LADIES ARE REQUESTED NOT TO HAVE CHILDREN IN THE BAR.”At a Budapest (Hungary) zoo:
“PLEASE DO NOT FEED THE ANIMALS. IF YOU HAVE ANY SUITABLE FOOD, GIVE TO THE
GUARD ON DUTY.”Dry cleaners, Bangkok (Thailand):
“DROP YOUR TROUSERS HERE FOR THE BEST RESULTS.”In a Nairobi (Kenya) restaurant:
“CUSTOMERS WHO FIND OUR WAITRESSES RUDE OUGHT TO SEE THE MANAGER.”On an Athi River (Kenya) highway:
“TAKE NOTICE: WHEN THIS SIGN IS UNDER WATER, THIS ROAD IS IMPASSABLE.”On a poster at Kencom (Romania):
“ARE YOU AN ADULT THAT CANNOT READ? IF SO, WE CAN HELP.”In a City restaurant:
“OPEN SEVEN DAYS A WEEK AND WEEKENDS.”A sign seen on an automatic restroom hand dryer:
“DO NOT ACTIVATE WITH WET HANDS.”In a cemetery:
“PERSONS ARE PROHIBITED FROM PICKING FLOWERS FROM ANY BUT THEIR OWN GRAVES.”On the menu of a Swiss restaurant:
“OUR WINES LEAVE YOU NOTHING TO HOPE FOR.”In a Tokyo (Japan) bar:
“SPECIAL COCKTAILS FOR THE LADIES WITH NUTS.”Hotel, Yugoslavia:
“THE FLATTENING OF UNDERWEAR WITH PLEASURE IS THE JOB OF THE CHAMBERMAID.”Hotel, Japan:
“YOU ARE INVITED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE CHAMBERMAID.”In the lobby of a Moscow hotel across from a Russian Orthodox monastery-cemetery:
“YOU ARE WELCOME TO VISIT THE CEMETERY WHERE FAMOUS RUSSIAN AND SOVIET
COMPOSERS, ARTISTS, AND WRITERS ARE BURIED DAILY EXCEPT THURSDAY.”A sign posted in Germany’s Black Forest:
“IT IS STRICTLY FORBIDDEN ON OUR BLACK FOREST CAMPING SITE THAT PEOPLE OF
DIFFERENT SEX, FOR INSTANCE, MEN AND WOMEN, LIVE TOGETHER IN ONE TENT UNLESS
THEY ARE MARRIED WITH EACH OTHER FOR THIS PURPOSE.”Hotel, Zurich (Switzerland):
“BECAUSE OF THE IMPROPRIETY OF ENTERTAINING GUESTS OF THE OPPOSITE SEX IN
THE BEDROOM, IT IS SUGGESTED THAT THE LOBBY BE USED FOR THIS PURPOSE.”Advertisement for donkey rides, Thailand:
“WOULD YOU LIKE TO RIDE ON YOUR OWN ASS?”The box of a clockwork toy made in Hong Kong:
“GUARANTEED TO WORK THROUGHOUT ITS USEFUL LIFE.”In a Swiss mountain inn:
“SPECIAL TODAY – NO ICE-CREAM.”Airline ticket office, Copenhagen (Denmark):
“WE TAKE YOUR BAGS AND SEND THEM IN ALL DIRECTIONS.”A laundry matt in Rome:
“LADIES, LEAVE YOUR CLOTHES HERE AND SPEND THE AFTERNOON HAVING A GOOD TIME.”August 4, 2004 at 7:14 am #40777Hurricane22491MemberHa ha! Those are great!:D
