20+ Signs that mean serious business

It's often said that for every rule, there is a story. Someone, somewhere, did something, and someone else made certain that thing was never going to happen again. 

The same is often true for signs; no one goes around posting them at random. No, a sign is only posted with a purpose; just sometimes, it's incredibly vague or confusing as to what that purpose was or why it needed to be a purpose at all. 

Well, these signs are here, and they mean serious business. As I look at each of these, I can't help but wonder what the story was behind them. Why were they posted? Who posted them? What was their motivation? For some of these, we'll never know. For others, we probably don't want to.
