These signs definitely have a lot of personality. And it's precisely what people and businesses want from them. Sick and tired of chain culture slowly making all high streets look the same, many city shops are returning to handpainted signs. It's estimated that there are about 300 full-time signwriters working in the UK alone.

As young graphic designers and artists are making their way into the industry, signwriting enthusiast Sam Roberts said that: "This is a generation that has grown up with computers at the heart of their work and who are seeking to engage with the physical processes that go into producing letter forms."

The subreddit r/FunnySigns is an old one—it was created all the way back in 2012. With 143,000 members, it's neither big nor small. However, I feel that it's going to remain relevant. After all, people want to be individual, to stand out. And creating a good sign achieves just that.

This is so true. The only difference between Doritos dust and germs is you can see the Doritos dust. Everything sticks to your hands. That is why "the five second rule" is bogus - if you dropped it on Dorito dust you would see it (and still eat it) but it is the same with germs (though perhaps you would still eat it).

(The employee noticed him, pointed the no smoking sign and the other one stopped. But I'm pretty sure, he did'nt smoke because it was forbidden, not because he understood why it was forbidden)
