We can't exactly tell people to go out and write clever and stupid things on signs, but it does just kind of have a way of happening. It's inevitable, like gravity. These vandals slip in and out of the night, unseen by the public. They're seekers of their own kind of justice. Like batman, but with a sharpie instead of billions of dollars worth of assets to spend on crime-fighting.
It's hard to look at the words "public canal zone" without thinking about the terrifically fine ways one could simply scratch out a few letters and turn a regular sign into some magic. And sometimes one or two small changes, a post-it, or a well placed googly eye is all it takes. We're bored of walking around life and not seeing jokes on stuff, so the more quips get sprinkled into our dull, useless lives the better.
For the sign-hungry, here are some funny signs from this weird world.
