Top Comments in real life (as opposed to cyberlife) often manifest themselves in the form of signs. Funny signs are one of the joys of traveling. You are liable to see them anywhere--from restaurants to beauty parlors to convenience stores to churches. So I thought tonight I would do a picture diary of some of the signs I like. I especially like signs that are funny by accident, but many signs are hilarious even if they are intentional.

I have personal connections to these two signs. Sherrill's is just 10 miles down the road from my house, but, alas, they have now gone out of business, a victim of the recession. But the sign is still funny. And when I used to live in the North Georgia mountains, this church was nearby. I always loved the sign.

Sometimes signs are funny and get funnier when you read the fine print:

And, of course, some signs are just asking for it:

Some funny signs rely upon double entendres:

TOP COMMENTS
From RenaRF:
Start with the comment by LaurenMonica and work your way down, from blue aardvark's diary Porn Found in Bin Laden's Hideout.
From carolita:
Voracious accurately maps out the new political landscape for presidential candidates in King One Eye's diary Megyn Kelly and Fox News Helped Sen Ensign Cover-Up His Crimes.
In Marko the Werelynx's excellent diary An open letter to an anti-theist, commenter slksfca brings a different perspective -- apatheism -- and I think I might be one too.
From your humble diarist:
This observation by Gooserock explains a lot in skip945's diary Rapture Rules.
We can only hope that this prediction by nominalize in kos' front page post GOP targets Democratic base comes true.
