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

[BeachyKeen]

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

There's a village a few miles from me called Ubley. I drove through one day and someone had added "Lovely J" to the front of it. Still makes me smile and it must have been 20 years ago!

No I have no desire to add an 'M' at all.

Let's not forget Susan Boyle's album party that had a rather interesting twitter hashtag.

Not one person has explained what "Construction Mends" refers to.

It doesn't make SENSE!

It's not like the Hammer Time one..or like Toilet..what IS funny about it please?

It's not a sensible sentence! Construction can't "mend"!

I'm with you mrsovertheroad

This thread is really odd. Why on earth is construction mends funny? Constructing something isn't the same as mending something...

Am completely bamboozled and I'm not even drunk . Yet.

To Let on the other hand requires an 'i' everytime

That's the one eyebrows!

I once saw a Thomas Cook shop that someone had vandalised and removed lettering from the sign so that it read Toms Cok.

I was singing "you can't touch this" at full tempo as I was in labour with ds (14)

To be fair I was off my tits on gas and air but the song was rather appropriate

The construction ends signs are from road repairs, so in these cases, it does mean mending, as in they are mending the potholes in the road.

Not building something new.

Beachy I think I'm too much of a pedant to find it funny

Construction Mends isn't "correct"

I guess🤔....but I still chuckle a bit.
It's ok though, my husband doesn't think I'm nearly as funny as I think I am either!😁

We drove past a mcdonalds drive through in the States once and all chuckled at the sign that said "do not enter" at the drive through. We thought yip 🤢 Don't bother. Great signage 😂😂 thanks

There's a road near woolwich army barracks called repository lane ....I fight the urge to change it to suppository lane.

Many years ago, our local Chinese Takaway was called Nanking House. It only needed one more stroke added to the N to change it into a W.

In Camden Town, in London, years ago, a sign for Regents Canal Centre first became Regents anal Centre and then gents anal Centre.

I'm 28 and I got the stop hammer time one. Doesn't everyone know that song?

At one place i worked there was a cupboard near the bogs that said STOPCOCK INSIDE where some wag had slipped in an exclamation mark: STOP! COCK INSIDE.

I love it.

Sign seen (not by me, I've been told about it) at a gay pub with two entrances/exits from the car park: "Enter at the rear"

Let's face it - ends / mends might make sense to some people...

But it is not in the same league as toilet, wank, anal and cock.

End of

There's an "independant expert" in my village. Drives me nuts!

I've always enjoyed this particular sign as it is

Does anyone remember the electrical store Rumbelows?

One Christmas our local store removed the L from the store sign- and above the gap placed a Noel christmas decoration

Love that!

An elderly relative used to live near a road called Fennis Close.

Kids would always spray paint the F closed to make it a P - and do it again instantly if it was removed.

I'm sure that they found it hilarious but I would come down with have Grocer's Apostrophes every time I saw it - BUT THAT'S NOT HOW YOU SPELL PENIS!!

Wonder if it's still Pennis Close.
