How do you kno there were lawsuits, do you???? All over the place theres warning either to avoid lawsuits or cuz 1 dumbass did something stupid and sued. It could just be self protection ????

I think its funny, but then again, I'm one of those imature and stupid teenagers

EVERYTHING posted on I-club with the caption of "funny" gets a generic comment from you that's something about:

"That's not funny, that's wrong"
"that's inhumane"
"that's wrong"
"Why are you guys laughing, that's horrible"

Like...did your parents whip you everytime you laughed at something?!

I guess that one on the right is a warning not to drive you car into the water?? Ok I would think thats obvious lol... anyways the one on the left is pretty funny looking, so exaggerated compared to usual signs you see around here.

The thing I loved about all the warning signs in Scotland is that they show consequences in a very exaggerated way. The little stick figgure is always just DOOMED.

The one on the left is a warning of a steep hillside. (not actually a cliff)

The one on the right is a warning at a ferry terminal not to drive off the end of the pier... (which would involve running several bericades)

There was another one that wanred of electric shock... the little stick figgure has this huge lightning bolt zapping him right in the chest. Loved it.

Later,
Mike

No, those were signs for the ****-Germany tanks.

There isn't a US base anywhere near my home town... I found out that my old town is very historical... it was leveled by the US in WWII. It was a major transport hub for the **** military, as well as a transport hub for "other things and people".
