Don't come in here

A few days ago, we went to a nursery to get vegetable seedlings. At the entrance to the 'Staff Only' section, we came across an amusing sign in the nursery and I asked Vince to take a photo of it. We’ve seen a lot of amusing notices regarding trespassing. One of the best was a sign on the gateway to a property saying ‘Trespassers will be executed’. Another read ‘Trespassers will be shot’. I’m sure others appreciate a bit of humour in signs.

I haven't noticed any funny signs around here but I do enjoy the ones you find on your travels.

@JudyEv It does seem that way, but you have more luck finding odd signs than I ever had.

We have enough of those in the garden but no I will just pull them out. No place for trespassers

Those sayings would be taken for real around this area. I like one I saw recently that said, "Pets welcome, humans tolerated!"

That's a good one. I can imagine pets being much less trouble than humans.

@JudyEv - I agree, if they read something "too strict" the instinct is to do the opposite.

I think people are more likely to go along with a direction if there is a bit of humour involved.

Weird signs are all the rage over here, especially outside pubs and coffee shops

There are some good ones here too. There was one church in Fremantle that had some beauties too. Of course, i can't remember any of them now.

Maybe it's on the web somewhere but it's probably one they came up themselves.

You're correct, it doesn't look like anything I've seen online but it would be fun to have something that funny to put on a sign for my property.

I love it when they make funny signs. They had one at Sonny’s BBQ in Florida: “Parking for Sonny’s BBQ. All others will be thrown into the smoker.”

I like that. I've seem some that say something along the lines of 'Unsupervised children will be fed red jelly and given a puppy'.

I think people are more likely to obey if you can make them smile.

"Human trespassers are welcome as we want business" should be added
