Silly signs part 2

Watch out for the Man

Chalk up another weird addition to a stop sign post in my humble abode of a suburb. Three thoughts cross my mind:

1. The people who live in my area are lousy drivers and need Cliffs notes even for road signs. And yes it’s Cliffs, not Cliff like how everyone around me referred to them growing up.

2. Someone in the village hall along with the local 5.0 are cool and know how to use humor to get their point across.

3. Someone who is a manager in that village hall actually approved it and will get flak for it when someone with no sense of humor complains. (I live in a suburb so the probability of that is 110%)

I’ve seen at least one driver stop for a minute, scratch his head while pondering how in the world it ended up there, and laughed as he pulled away… fully observing the rules of the stop sign. Next step - get someone in Chicago to approve signs on how to properly merge and yield during rush hour.
