Aibu to want to take a sharpie and add an "M"

[BeachyKeen]

It's just one M, and it would make more sense

My old neighbourhood was called 'Vintage Place' but one morning we woke up to find this!! Found it funny for weeks!!!

This whole construction mends thing is getting out of hand. 😂

We had an old people's home near us called "The Limes." An S was added so often it never really went away however often the signition was painted over. My friend's DH found it hysterical. I moved to a house that has a name ( not posh though, honestly ! ) and to my horror I found that it was originally called The Limes too but isn't any more, for obscure reason. Just as well as I know every Christmas card from friend of above DH would have come addressed to:

The Balloon Family
The Slimes
Our road
etc

Found this store driving around America

There used to be a block of flats in Chelsea called "Menton Mansions" and someone took the letters off so it read "Men on Man"

at Mistoffelees. Directions to 'Dave's house'.

It was only meant as a mildly funny play on words, as construction (building/repairing) makes things mended.
Therefore construction ends/mends

Thrill house is possibly a Simpsons reference.

In London there's a Penistone Road. No prizes for guessing what amendment was made!

The university I was at had lots of posters around which said things like:

"Lighting an empty office overnight wastes enough energy to boil enough water for 1000 cups of coffee. Give it a rest!"

On one of these, somebody had attached a piece of paper with a lot of handwritten notes, saying "Does it? Assume an office has two 40W strip lights, etc..."

I have been known to put a notice on my classroom door saying

"Please do not read this notice".

My favourite local street sign.

We have an Exchange Street sign in town, which regularly becomes SExchange St. At 40+, it still makes me cackle.

There's a sign for Vanalman Ave in Canada. I mean, seriously people, no one thought that was a bad idea. I'm sure Sharpies are sold out of every shop near the sign.

When I used to live on Manchester, the sign on Canal Street in the city's Gay Village was very frequently vandalised to read "anal treat". By the time I moved away the sign had moved up the wall to at least 2nd floor level, but still the vandals got to it somehow!

The signs for APSE HEATH on the Isle of Wight are regularly defaced.

I regularly drive through Jeremy Hunts constituency. During election campaigns blue signs are put up, his name is right at the top and a HUGE expanse of poster is left blank underneath. People then wonder why rude words (that rhyme) are written underneath...

In the middle of nowhere, on a single track road by a forest there's an 'passing place' sign, thats all green and brown with stuff growing on it. Someone's written in the dirt with their finger, 'wind'. It's magestic.

The Sixmile River which runs through Antrim town regularly gets the i changed to an e on the signs

I don't think the road sign on the way to Uckfield has actually just said Uck in the last 5 years.

At least it's not called Untfield.

Construction mends....is that when you build bridges?

The 'SLOW CHILDREN PLAYING'

Is this even politically correct these days?

"I lived near a estuary where there was a public hard."

What's a public hard?

ha was just about to say about Uckfield, also Hucking, I don't think I've ever actually seen that sign without graffiti either.

A sign I felt was appropriate without modification was at an entrance to a university 'Changed priorities ahead'
