There are plenty of ways to group signs into themes, but few have as natural a connection as this one. These images really only have one f%#king thing in common. For a slightly more tasteful and complete collection of funny signs, check out any of the three Signspotting books. And please visit signspotting.com to submit your own f%#king sign photos.

Let's put a stop to it once and for all

I swear this is the Chinese restaurant in Cooperstown. Amazing food, btw. Went there all the time and worked with the owner for a while.

What is there to mod when you've already dropped the "F" word.? =)

this is so 8th grade....can't we grow up a bit? After all, the word simply means "to plant seed" from Middle English. I expect the Huffington Post to provide content, not this drivel. I have no problem with humor, but this is just dumb....laughing at someone else's language.

Ahem, you clicked on it? Plus, you know, times are tense. A good laugh is not a bad thing. Lighten up.

Miss MMcGuire, maybe you need to get out of your library once in a while.

Too funny, and I'm pleased that HP has lightened up a bit. As evidenced by the fact that people posting comments can actually use the terms in their comment that HP has in this piece and not get scrubbed. See , the world didn't implode and you're being fair concerning the right to use the words that HP uses. But! If this gets scrubbed, well then I'll just have to take this all back and eat your words.:-)

Yes like I said I misspelled the name of the bookstore here too. It's Wong Fook Hing. My mistake.

LOL I'll bet lots of people missed that commenters and editors alike.

funny!

Hilarious. I laughed so hard I fell on the fook hing floor. I can't even begin to understand the Ghana barber's sign, but it nearly caused me to pass out from oxygen deprivation.

"To make fun of the fact that words in foreign languages mean funny things in your native tongue is to perpetuate the stereotype of English speakers being completely alien to the notion of taking the languages and people of other cultures seriously, as anything more than news items, statistics, and sources of humor."

While I agree wholeheartedly, all cultures do it. Otherwise, I wouldn't have Somali students giggling at the word "was". It means copulate in Somali.

lighten up, laughing with someone is theraputic and harmless. Not everything is meant maliciously

I'm starting to think the word "ever" must not mean what i think it means... such an overused word as of late on these things.. and always the next day or two there is a new "ever" to bypass past the last "ever" can we at least get a new tagline or catchy word to wear out ; )

the term "evar" is more appropriate.
