    I like the "Professional SIgn's". I guess their signs are good, but not their grammar!

      With respect to the "Ladie's" sign...

      What's the plural possessive of "Lady?"

      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

          That’s exactly what I was wondering...

            One of the best of Mother's what? 😲

            Another lifelong irritant for me is the misplaced quote marks. Like: Prices Available Today "Only".

                I find the 'its' confusing. I feel like there should be a possessive apostrophe, but there isnt.

                I was only joking

                            I’m sure it’s not serious. I’ve seen similar signs for Irish.

                            This is clearly private property.

                              Of course it is a joke.

                              You could probably find one for Germans

                              Of course there are some humorless groups that would certainly not be allowed

                              You see these for football teams too.
