Most of these signs were designed to help people — to get where they're going, to find a pet, to avoid grievous bodily harm — and yet some writing-utensil-wielding wiseasses felt compelled to come along and totally deface them. We're so glad they did. Does that mean we value a wry sense of humor or even just a lazy reference to an outdated song over the safety of our fellow human beings? We're insulted you would even ask. Of course we do.

The gym can be an intimidating place, what with all the grunting, weight dropping, and people who actually have the discipline to follow through on their commitments to get in shape. That said, not everything you see at your local health club will make you feel inadequate as a human being. In fact, certain strange sightings can make you feel downright superior. Here are some examples of enjoyable ridiculousness to serve as your incentive to get back in the gym if for no other reason than to laugh at others.
He later moved into a funhouse of mirrors so he could finally look normal.
So you've been chatting with a chick you met in the Craigslist Casual Encounters section. She wants to see pictures of the huge muscles you've been telling her you have and promises to send you some naughty shots if you oblige. The only problem? You may have exaggerated a bit about your "washboard abs" and "16 inch guns." Uh oh! Better bust out that copy of Photoshop you barely know how to use. She won't get suspicious if your muscles appear to defy the laws of nature, will she? Answer: Probably, but since she's really a dude she's willing let your little white lies go.
Okay, guys, now an incriminating one!
From the annals of stupid teen criminals comes this gem: after stealing a woman's credit card from a movie theater in Crofton, MD, a group of teens used her card to buy movie tickets (probably to The Purge or something equally reprehensible). They then hopped in a photo booth and took a series of photos that are unlikely to endear them to any judge, specially since the stolen credit card also jumped in for a few shots. On the plus side, they look like they are having an amazing summer. We miss being young.

Joseph Gibson just wanted to enjoy a nice Father's Day meal with his young child at the local bar. He even called Friendly's Sports Bar & Grill (not the chain) in advance to make sure it was okay to bring his kid, who is under 21. The manager made an exception in the spirit of the holiday. But after enjoying his one-half fried chicken, Gibson was furious to see an extra item referring to his child as a "fuckin needy kids" [sic] on his bill. There was only one kid at the table! Plus, the "fuckin needy" thing!
Gibson demanded an apology from the manager and the waitress (who claimed it was just the best joke ever), and shared the receipt on Facebook in hopes of spurring the Internet and the people of St. Louis to action. We're assuming Gibson will only eat at places called "Grumpy's" from now on.
