what actually made me laugh out loud wasnt nessaseraly the actaul labels, but the comments you wrote underneath them. did you make them up yourself?
we have 2 books at home called ' worlds most stupid signs' and 'silly signs'...they have loads more in aswell.
for example one says 'road flooded when this sign is underwater' and 'open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, except friday and saturday'
my dad has a friend who has funny quotes on his van (hes a builder) such as 'discovered yesterday' and 'most jobs too big'

I once had a watch where the "warranty void" section was *very* long, and included "comet fall".
