Restaurant Sign Dispenses Jokes and Wisdom

Jokes just hit harder when they're put up on a 10 foot tall sign in front of a restaurant, gas station or lumber yard. When you think about it, it's kinda like giant twitter.

Should we feel guilty about getting advice from a random sign? Absolutely not. We routinely get advice from our friends, and those people don't know anything. Who's to say that a stranger with a stack of letters can't have something meaningful or at least amusing to say? It's our right to listen to wisdom harder because it is physically bigger.

Why not get all your musings from a Tex-Mex restaurant sign in Austin, Texas? There's something so folksy yet official about sign jokes. Maybe the knowledge that a random person had to go out there and put up every letter by hand just gives it more meaning? Maybe it's the boldness of putting opinions on a big sign for thousands to see? Maybe we just like signs. It definitely works for this sign whose pun game is too on point.
