Smile. Have a BREAK with Pinoy Signs.

⋅ 33 Comments

Let’s have a break. Break into a smile with Pinoy Signs through photos.


Jagging Pants


I wanted Waitress

Here is my contribution:

garbage

This road sign along the road near Benguet says:
No dumping of garbage along the road. Throw it down

And it was signed by the Department of Public Highways. How environment friendly? Do these public officials know what they are doing? They should have some garbage retrieval in place. Signs like this just promote garbage disposal problems . It does not teach discipline either.

And another one taken by my brother-in-law , this time from a police outpost in a town in Benguet. I wonder if crime rate is low there.

Which photo gave you the widest smile?

    OMG I STARTED DYING AFTER “ENTRANCE ONLY DO NOT ENTER”

    There’s this sign outside the Cityland being constructed next to our building that I have yet to take a picture of. It’s mounted on a post and says: “Caution, Falling Dibres”. And then there’s another sign behind it that says: “Caution, Falling Debris”. Too funny.

    Oh my… Those were really funny, LOL! :-)

    But I don’t get what was funny about the “circumcision” list. Or maybe it’s because I have a medical background. :-)

    I love the welcome sako on the corrugated metal house. It written correctly too. Maybe media should attempt to interview the people within.
