Weird and wacky signs around the world

Thai Beach SignThe sign is to express proof that times are indeed tough for the superhero set. Because we can trust that the facial depiction is accurate – police sketch artists are seldom false – we can correctly surmise that the Silver Surfer, of Marvel Comics fame, has resorted to a life of shameless beach thievery in order to support his lavish lifestyle. A surfboard made of silver? Please. -----------------------------------Road Sign in Queensland, AustraliaWe knew Australia was a progressive nation. What contact we have had with backpackers from Down Under has proven time and again that marijuana is a substance they enjoy, often in scary and copious amounts. And certainly, a nation so in love with yeast extract spreads must be under the influence of psychoactive drugs. But despite these blatant signs, the one below was cause for some alarm … and envy.-----------------------------------Sidewalk Sign in New York CityThere are so many reasons to be curious about the sign below. First of all, why is it even there or necessary at all? Secondly, if it is in fact a way to draw attention to the existence of a nearby seesaw, what brilliant mind came up with the idea to erect a popular children’s playground apparatus in the middle of Manhattan traffic?-------------------------------------------- Highway Sign in GermanyGerman drivers hate limits on speed. This fact plays some part in our theory about the mystery sign below. The sign is either legible only at Mach V, about regulation speed on the Autobahn, or the amorphous blob within the yellow diamond represents what happens to people who get in the way of German drivers.---------------------------------------Highway Sign in the USWe have yet to find out just where this sign is but our guess is that the person responsible is a rageaholic, underpaid civil servant with a ferocious prescription drug habit.-----------------------------Danger Sign in NorwayGeography buffs know that Scandinavia is a perilous and precarious land. We have no doubt that a casual drive in the country could spell disaster if you read the directions “turn left at the fjord” the wrong way. But just how blind are Norwegian drivers that they require a sign such as this?
