We’ve all driven through neighborhoods and seen unoriginal signs for garage sales or whatever else people are trying to get rid of. Most of them are mundane and aren’t really worth a second glance, but every once in a while, you’ll spot a sign so clever it may lure you in.

Just when you think you may have seen all the yard signs out there, the internet has yet again reminded us that it’s a never-ending source of humor and wit. We’ve rounded up another batch of clever yard signs that are sure to put a smile on your face!

Welcome Home

Want to keep unwanted guests out? Put this up! People will be sweating wondering if this is directed at them.

Luckily for you,  you just get to be outside and enjoy the show, and lack of visitors. Muahaha! Lonely yet?

Grow Please

Cutting grass can be a real pain in the neck, but these folks seem to be praying for the opposite.

Say it a little louder, and it just might work!

Isolating

When you're under quarantine, the rest of your property should be out of bounds too. Makes perfect sense. This is why this mailbox is on hiatus and any notifications should be strictly put on hold until said quarantine is complete.

Reddit.com/link229


It's only fair really. In fact, maybe that mailman should be popping those bills into the mailbox next door.

Not Asking For Much

Sometimes you just want to shout something out to the world, or at least put up a sign and tell people. Other times you don't really have much to say but sort of need to get the message out there no matter what.

Twitter/@AlanSteinberg


We're not quite sure in which category this sign falls. One thing we are sure about, this person did exactly what they set out to do and we couldn't be happier for them.

Muppets For All

If this was on any other political campaign, you might have the seeds of serious dictatorship on your hands. But since it's the Muppets,  we're totally fine. In fact, having Fozzie Bear, Kermit, Miss Piggy, or all of them for that matter, might be just delightful.

Twitter/@KarenShort8


We're glad to get any of the gang anyway. Where do we get ours?

Let's Go, Vader

Here's someone who has abandoned all hope (or reality) and allowed themselves to create their own fantasy government. because why not? Darth Vader might be a good leader, sure, he'll rule with an iron fist and the force may feel a little "dark" but hey, we've seen worse.

Imgur.com/Q4Q8b5v


We're sure many folks also believe that Vader should be the one true ruler of the galaxy. Where do we sign up?

Deadly Bunny

Some people have ferocious rottweilers or bulldogs. Others have deadly rabbits that quietly lurk in the shrubbery, waiting for any undesirable visitors. Dare one to trespass, they might meet their fate.

Imgur.com/82SHumK


Seriously, is this like some kind of Monty Python breed of rabbit? If so, that's actually a little worrying.

You Have No Business Here

It's always good to research your market before you go door to door. What's even better is when people do the research for you. Now, these solicitors know that they'll be barking up the wrong tree.

Instagram/@averyannboutique


Will they find it discouraging? Or perhaps they'll whip out those selling skills and rise to the challenge. Go, capitalism.

Don't Be Alarmed!

If you live near a farmhouse or a property with stables, hopefully, you would be familiar with this by now, but if not, just know it's not people leisurely lying on the grass, it's horses. Sure, folks tend to do that too.

Imgur.com/6OEeHBb


But in this case, if you see an unidentified body lying down, chances are, it's a horse. So please, don't call the cops.

Dandelion Party

Dandelions are delightful little flowers, that should harm no one.  Though on the other hand, gusts of wind may have sent these delicate little petals flying into neighbors' noses. Their response is priceless.

Imgur.com/q9Zkkzg


When you find yourself overwhelmed by dandelions, just make it a free-for-all! We wonder how many people showed up for dandelion picking that day. Certainly not the ones who put that sign up.

I Surrender

Poor sign, there's something about you that just makes people want to throw things, stones specifically. It's almost like you're asking for it.

Reddit.com/jack_bishop


As much as it appears as you don't want stones thrown at you, trust people to do the exact opposite of what they're told.

No Hanging Zone

Please avoid hanging signs on this fence at all costs. This fence is not made for signs, it merely does not have the strength for it, nor does it look good. This fence doesn't belong to you. Oh, wait? A sign is already there it seems. Lead by example then.

Reddit.com/stardustdriveinTN


All jokes aside, it seems that this fence belonged to someone who kept getting swamped with signs. Guess there is no way better way to get the message across other than sticking on the fence sign.

Jogging Rules

This house-hold has had its fair-share of joggers pass that house. Unfortunately, it looks like not everyone got the original memo for the dress code. Something about those jiggling bodies offends the kids (or the parents) in that house.

Imgur.com/Ye0lhch


Well, it looks like either the kids are going to have to avert their eyes, or those joggers might have to start covering up. This might not go down well.

Your Car Will Be Totally Fine

The humorous photo of a sign exhibits the consequences of grammatical errors on warning signs.  While the makers of this sign most likely were trying to convey that all illegally parked cars will be fined — with a "d" — they obviously unintentionally left out this very important letter.

Imgur.com/Hd8jJ


As for the viewers of this sign, it is a blessing in disguise. Overly concerned about getting a parking ticket? It looks like this sign could get you off scot-free! Even if it does turn out that you’ve parked illegally. Thank the gods of grammar.

Acts of Kindness

It's signs like these that remind us that ultimately, people are good-natured. While this isn't exactly a funny sign, it does make us smile.

If only more people could be this way, instead of posting the signs we usually see. We would certainly see more smiles in the world.

Beware of Dog?

Although this dog looks harmless, we’re sure this sign is there for a reason. Admittedly, he does looks tiny, but maybe he has a big bark and maybe an even bigger bite. Certainly looks like it.  He could be the meanest small dog in the history of canines for all we know.

Just to be safe, it’s better to ring the bell. And if you manage to get by the dog, beware of its owner. Seems like they are even scarier, the reason is coming up soon.

Greatest Dad Joke Ever

Another gem from the Colorado-based Indian Hills Community Center, this sign had us laughing for a while. They sure know how to keep the place alive, even in the dead of winter.

Facebook/@IndianHillsCommunitySign


Doesn’t it sound like some typical dad joke your father would blurt out in the middle of a family dinner? Yes, it’s cheesy. But great, nonetheless.

Polite Warning

We think everyone would love to have a portable sign like this at one point or other in their lives. Such a polite way of saying, “back-off”.

Facebook/@IndianHillsCommunitySign


Hey, at least the person was polite enough to warn us. And if we ever run into a sign like this in real life, we will be sure to run!

Don't Mess With Those Pills

We have to say we totally agree with this yard sign. At least this guy is taking it in stride and wishing well upon whoever took his anti-depressants. To be honest, they're probably very happy.

Facebook/@IndianHillsCommunitySign


While we’re loving the dry humor, don’t people know you don’t mess with someone’s happy pills?!

Toilet Bandits

Such a great pun. First of all, who was the brave soul that dared steal nothing less than a toilet from the police?! We shudder to think about how they will rid themselves of all those doughnuts and coffee!

Reddit.com/ferrissh


Not only are these boys clueless, but they LITERALLY have nothing to go on! Sorry guys, it looks like you'll have to resort to the woods for a while.

The Best Continent Ever

This sign inspires patriotism and is exactly why America is "the best country in the nation", because not only is America a country, and not an entire continent, but it is also the best country within one country!

Imgur.com/QtZQSt1


Bravo guys! We sincerely advise brushing up on your geography next time you're going to make such grand statements.

Please Do Not Enter

We all know that The United States of America has a culture of suing, and this sign looks like it lays out the series of events that will follow. This household also has a culture of not letting people into their property.

Imgur.com/DMCQTSW


You have been warned that you may get hurt and that your defense won’t stand up in a court of law as this will be used as evidence against you!

Welcome to The "OOL"

This sign is a warning that isn’t obvious as soon as you read it but it makes you think for a second. Having a clear message is important but making people remember what you’re trying to tell them is equally important. Such is the case with this "ool sign."

Flickr Photo By Delwin Steven Campbell


This can be achieved by driving a message home. We totally agree with this sign, as the message is on point and it’s a pretty gross thing to do.

Candy Crush Invitations

Requests like this are some of the most annoying on the internet, and this restaurant wants you to know exactly how annoying they find them.

Imgur.com/dSnj53Q


We’re totally with you on this one!

Seriously, Beware

Usually, people are afraid of being bitten by a dog, but in this case, guns seem to be relatively commonplace in this residence. Trespassers might want to think twice about that.

They say that dogs imitate their owners so beware of a dog with a gun!

Back That Junk Up

This is the best use of the saying "junk in your trunk" we've ever seen.

Instagram/@robotattack22


We're delighted they decided to take the otherwise outdated "compliment" and turned it into a useful and informative garage sale sign. Why yes, we would love to put your drunk in our trunk!

Take It or Leave It

Here we have another example of a "take everything my ex owned" kind of yard sale. What would one buy from a twenty-something year old?

Reddit.com/higgehuggehagge


Student loans and some video games? It doesn't sound too appealing to us, maybe that's why this woman broke up with him in the first place!

Making Pour Decisions

If a pirate were ever to move to a suburban neighborhood, we're guessing this the exact sign they would choose to put up.

Imgur.com/ut0vXEk


Come election season, you're expected to put up lawn signs publically announcing your political opinions. But why be political when alcohol never loses. Well, almost never.

Thirty, Flirty & Fabulously Old

This has got to be one of the best practical jokes. This young neighborhood wanted everyone to know that someone's turning thirty, and this is the best way to go about it.

Facebook/@SweetSignsOkotoks


Apparently, when you hit thirty, you're considered an old man. Evidently, along with the aches and pains - you don't deserve a cake either!

A Sign From Above

You know times are tough when your local church puts up a message delivered by the big guy up there.

Shutterstock


We wonder what took place in this community that instigated this sign - but we bet the residents were on their best behavior the second this sign went up.

We Know Where You Live

There's nothing worse than stepping on dog poop on your own lawn. It is simply unforgivable.

Imgur.com/c9P90Nu


When they say they're going to send their grandson to retaliate - are they talking about a little kid? Or is their grandson a grown man?! We really hope it's the former!

Cat's out of the Bag

The best way to get someone to stop throwing cigarette butts on the ground is to blame your cat's nicotine dependency.

Imgur.com/Q8ksuVp


To make matters more dramatic, they added a photo of the junkie in question! Perhaps they were trying to trigger the culprit's empathy?

It's You, Not Me

Marriage often means there are things you don't agree on - politics is usually one of those things. This family still supports the man of the house - but they want it to be clear that their political views are not aligned.

Imgur.com/m9FaL


This is the ultimate way to clear your name while still showing your love.

Shout it From the Rooftops

Of all the signs we've seen up until now, this one has been the most touching. The majority of lawn signs are either people declaring their hatred towards solicitors or advertising upcoming yard sales.

Imgur.com/dJyBQ


Ashlea got some good news, and she wanted the whole world to know! Spread the love, girl!

Ghostbuster

If you've ever moved into an old house or apartment, you've probably wondered if the place was haunted.

Imgur.com/knF8q


Real estate agent, Jake Palmer, got sick of people asking whether the houses he's been showing are haunted - so he added a disclaimer to each and every one of the "for sale" signs. Except for the homes that were, in fact, haunted...

Taking a Stand

If you're looking to steal a sign, you may want to do a background check on your neighbors before snatching their signs. This Marine takes his lawn signs very seriously...

Imgur.com/6Ttql


So, when someone stole his Romney sign, he decided to retaliate in the most fitting way possible - by writing a threat in the form of a lawn sign.

Vote for Cat!

There's not much we love more than a good meme - really, so when someone turned this iconic meme into a literal Presidential lawn sign.

Twitter/@NathalieDavies


We'd vote for Keyboard Cat for President, we just want to know who he would choose as vice president, Snoopy?

We Like Big Sales, and We Cannot Lie

The people having this big yard sale took the classic lyrics to "Baby Got Back," rewrote them, and then used them to promote their sale.

Imgur.com/84RGrYz


Truthfully, this is all we needed to convince us to make our way over to the sale, and we weren't even there. So we're guessing that this sale was a big hit...almost as big as Sir Mix-A-Lot's 2002 one-hit-wonder.

Burning Down the House

Smoking is so passé - a clean-cut lawn is where it's all at. And yet, some people inconsiderately smoke on other people's property.

Imgur.com/MrsChrisPratt


A tale as old as time, so this family decided to take matters into their own hands: come near this house with a cigarette, and you'll be sorry...not to mention, soggy.

All Sales Final

Most people put up signs advertising yard sales and cars for sale - never have we seen husbands for purchase.

Reddit.com/furrygreencurry


We wonder what event triggered this. We're not sure we would want to buy someone else's husband if she's giving him away he probably did something awful.

The Grass is Much Greener on the Other Side

When you see a "please keep off the grass sign." you're most likely standing in front of a beautifully green, freshly cut lawn.

Alamy Stock Photo


And then, there's this...we don't mean to judge or anything, but there isn't a lot of grass to keep off of! Just saying!

Super Sale

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It's a worthwhile yard sale.

Facebook/@EastEndYardSaleHuntersLongIslandNy


It takes a lot of confidence to indicate that the things you're selling are so high quality one might think they've made their way to a department store! Here's to celebrating second-hand treasures!
