Who needs warning about the stairs? Apparently, people who consider descending with maximum style points (and minimal balance). That stick figure’s move is bold. But if this is the standard, I’m using the elevator from now on.

You know you’re in a unique vehicle when there’s an emergency syringe bolted to the dash. Is this a car ride or a post-apocalypse Mad Max marathon? Honestly, I’ll risk the tetanus. That DIY setup is still scaring me.

Nothing makes you ponder life choices like being told to test your body dimensions on a public seat. Maybe I’ll just sit this one out altogether. Best of luck to anyone who dares to try. May your proportions be ever in your favor!

The sign’s message is sensible, but the order could really use a comma…unless, of course, we’re talking full-on Lord of the Flies. So are people eating children, or just eating *with* children? Either way, sounds like an eventful afternoon.

They didn’t have to call out John like that, but you know someone in the crew is loving this sign way too much. I bet office Johns everywhere just sighed audibly. But hey, at least the rest of the crew is having fun.

What if the crossroads between good and bad were just a literal street corner? GPS can’t help you here—you’re on your own. I hope Google Maps picks a side for me because I’d definitely end up lost in purgatory.

This is the kind of warning that puts the fun in funnel cake—by turning snack time into a contact sport with local wildlife. If your dessert flies away, don’t come complaining. Seagulls have no respect for personal property.

Nothing says 'welcome back to school' like a fully stocked wall of spirits. Either they know their real customer base, or things have gotten wild in education reform. Either way, every teacher just nodded in exhausted agreement.

Quotation marks really change the vibe here. Is it a requirement or just an idea for personal growth? Either way, everyone gets plausible deniability. Just 'wash hands,' no follow-up questions.

This is the deep, late-night conversation on a signboard that nobody expected but everyone needed. If peace is good for the dead, maybe the living deserve a slice of it, too. A little wisdom goes a long way!

I need to know the story behind the cabbage incident. Are cabbages the projectile of choice now? Either way, the staff appreciates your restraint. Please stick with words—or lettuce, at most.

Charging a fee for attitude is the hotel reception energy we should all aspire to. Grouchy, irritable, or mean? That’ll be $10 plus tax. I’m smiling already just reading this.

Finally, someone dares to ask why we’re all overwhelmed or underwhelmed, but never that perfect, elusive ‘whelmed.’ Is the right amount of whelm just a myth, or are we all missing out? Existential crisis: activated.
