50 Times “Dude With Sign” Did Everyone A Service And Protested Everyday Annoying Things (New Pics)
Nowadays, you can communicate your message to millions across the globe through the click of a button. However, old-school methods still work, like standing on the street holding a sign for everyone to see.
If you’re more about the latter, you’ve likely heard of Dude With Sign. Seth Phillips is the brave soul who constantly puts himself out there, earning him 7.8 million followers on Instagram. At the rate he’s going, it doesn’t look like he’ll be running out of placards soon.
Enjoy scrolling through this list of some of Seth’s attention-grabbing signs. See how many of them resonate with you.

Seth amassed an enormous following thanks to his efforts to raise (pun intended) awareness on various issues, from daylight savings to COVID-19 vaccines. But he mostly touches on random daily life matters like liking social media posts from a friend’s ex and January being “the Monday of the year.”
His efforts have led him to photo ops with notable figures, such as United States President Joe Biden and English singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran.
Seth’s beginnings as the Dude With Sign man began while he was working as a comedy writer for a party card game called What Do You Meme? As he told Drew Barrymore in an interview, his first sign was about replying to company-wide emails, which was happening at work at the time.
Seth described it as a success, prompting him to do it more. When coming up with his next sign idea, he says he tries to keep it relatable enough for everyone to understand.
“If it’s something that’s trending on Twitter America, I realize I have fans in Istanbul and Australia,” he said. “I want to make sure that it’s fully known before I do it.”
Seth’s concept was indeed unique in its own right. In his interview with Drew Barrymore, he didn’t seem hesitant when he raised the first sign. For anyone with a seemingly quirky idea, he says to go ahead and do it anyway.
“Maybe there are people who’ll love it, but make it different in your own way,” he encourages.
Not everyone would be willing to stand in a crowded street, holding up a sign that boycotts using Microsoft Teams for video meetings. Seth admits he received many weird stares from passersby but eventually felt less daunted by possibly “looking stupid.”
“Now I’m so happy that I didn’t give up and think that that was just a dumb idea,” he proudly said.

Go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all of it to blow over.

Clearly these are the way to avoid BP censors. All signs should be on cardboard from now on.

We don't, we just buy replacements when they die.... but here is a small tip: start with cacti -it takes years to kill those, as long as you don't drown them.

I am so guilty of this. Films are so important to me, it seems crazy to me when someone hasn't seen one that I consider to be a classic! I shall try to hold back my freak out. Lol.

In many of these it’s clear that he’s holding more than one sign. Presumably to cycle through them one at a time.

Some of these are definitely created, I mean some of the people walking by are THE same people, in the same clothes and everything. The two laughing ladies walking to the left for example. Someone else mentioned it too.

It's fake. #14 is the same picture as #10. The girls in front haven't moved but the sign changed!! *Nobody* is looking at him in any of the pictures. All those pics with other people passing in front of him holding up a sign with the word F**k on it should get some looks.

# 14 is the same picture as #10, except the sign changed. The people and their positions didn’t. Seems like no one is looking at him in most of the pictures. Hmmmmmm????
