  • ishkabum, on 11/24/2008, -0/+69what lame captions

    "LOOKS LIKE SOMEBODY DID AWAY WITH THE LETTER 'A' ON THIS ONE!"
  • ScottMcIntyre, on 11/24/2008, -2/+35I'm not sure why they've combined the 'Wheelchair access' sign with the 'No Skateboarding' one. It seems a little insensitive.
  • zazaart, on 11/24/2008, -5/+32"no coasting vehicles" what
    thats the stupid's no skate sign ever
  • 2Xzist, on 11/24/2008, -0/+23I give you a D+ for effort... stay in school.
  • darny, on 11/24/2008, -3/+26digg circles the drain.

    buried.
  • pwningpwner, on 11/24/2008, -2/+24This article is an absolute waste of time. There is nothing funny about any of these signs they are just normal signs you would see anywhere... who diggs this stuff??
  • thespiff, on 11/24/2008, -4/+24Title is inaccurate. There is nothing unusual about any of these signs.

    And skateboarding is only cool if it involves Christopher "Big Black" Boykins as your bodyguard and an awesome bulldog named Meaty.
  • compguy101101, on 11/24/2008, -1/+20Signs not so awe inspiring, Last picture...What the hell kind of camera took that, wowzers.
  • jnuffnuffnomnom, on 11/24/2008, -3/+20Skateboarding is pretty dangerous, it should be banned everywhere. What's wrong with go karts anyway?
  • oddturtle, on 11/24/2008, -1/+17that sucked ass.
  • inactive, on 11/24/2008, -3/+18the irony of a skateboarder's genius is not lost on these signs.
    buried
  • Zendervision, on 11/24/2008, -2/+16The third one down (leotard), does mean "No Skateboarding" despite having no red line through the circle. It's conforming to British road signage laws where a red circle means prohibited.

    Not interesting, but true!
  • emecks, on 11/24/2008, -1/+15The one banning everything would be better replaced by a razorwire fence.
  • OfficialJoe, on 11/24/2008, -0/+12Ok, coasting vehicles is probably a bit strange, but couldn't somebody please just shut Caption Obvious up.

    /pardon the corny wordplay.
  • lowtolerance, on 11/24/2008, -0/+11"not interesting, but true!"

    much like the article
  • haremchief, on 11/24/2008, -0/+10That's passing! woot! Congrats zazaart!
  • OfficialJoe, on 11/24/2008, -0/+9Fire hazard. Its the flames.
  • 2Xzist, on 11/24/2008, -0/+8They'd have an aneurysm if one day an 11yo kid showed up smoking a joint while riding a skateboard with roller-blades on (extremely talented kid) pulling a shopping cart full of Dominoes pizza ads with his pet bicycle-riding monkey then he pulls the cart into the stream and starts throwing all the leftover ads into the water.....

    Then a guy on a wheelchair rolls by after having just been refused service because he wasn't wearing shoes (it's probably safe to assume they'd refuse service to shirtless/shoeless ppl).
  • Dailydose4me, on 11/24/2008, -5/+12wow - how goood !!
  • rectagon, on 11/24/2008, -0/+7Oh my goodness... totally YAWN. How did this get to the front page?
  • dnields, on 11/24/2008, -0/+6No, it's not.
    Now if they combined the Wheelchair access and the "No Coasting Vehicles" one... THAT would be a tad insensitive.
  • ritubpant, on 11/24/2008, -1/+7Very polite yet when they find you they whoop your a** like there is no tomorrow
  • irfanmp, on 11/24/2008, -0/+5And if none of these "No Skateboarding" signs work, you can just act like an ass like this guy:

  • RealmDown, on 11/24/2008, -0/+5Dugg for "reglement" though I'm not sure why. I just like the sound of it.
  • inactive, on 11/24/2008, -0/+5wow this sucked out loud. buried.
  • inactive, on 11/24/2008, -0/+5Damn kids with their damn skateboards. (Old man voice.)
  • bisforxbeauty, on 11/24/2008, -0/+5The pictures are alright, but this guy's captions need to be redone. They're super lame...

    "Looks like somebody did away with the letter A on this one."

    No *****, Sherlock ***** Holmes.
  • w1d0w, on 11/24/2008, -0/+5Dugg for "BOW WOW RUFF WOOF WOOF RUFF RUFF 12-51 (NO DOGS ALLOWED IN PARKS OR PLAYGROUNDS)"
  • haloevo, on 11/24/2008, -0/+4What the hell?
    These are, for the most part, fairly standard signs.

    I was expecting, oh, I don't know, something a little more Digg-worthy?...
  • babychen, on 11/24/2008, -1/+5No coasting vehicles? Whoever made that sign - is there a place where its considered a vehicle?
  • terencec, on 11/24/2008, -0/+4But I prefer lollerskating
  • willisan, on 11/24/2008, -0/+4No it is not a crime....but vandalism from boarding is. I used to skate as a teen, and know what damage sliding and truck grinding does.

    When you are kid, you do not care about things like that....not until you grow up and actually start to respect property.
  • anagoge, on 11/24/2008, -0/+4They missed the right parenthesis off on the 9th sign down. That's gotta be disappointing when you've gone to so much trouble disallowing everything.
  • shortskoolbus, on 11/24/2008, -1/+5wow those are some gay ass captions
  • Misanthrope, on 11/24/2008, -0/+4What captions are people talking about? Did they remove them after they read all the negative comments? I want to read lame captions!
  • specialK16, on 11/24/2008, -0/+4BUT THEN WHO WAS PHONE???
  • inactive, on 11/24/2008, -0/+4The pictures range from not-so-interesting to almost-interesting. The captions, on the other hand, make me want to gouge out my own brain.
  • Mutton, on 11/24/2008, -0/+3There's one in downtown Canton that says "NO SKATEBOARDING ON THE WALL." You dang kids, stop breaking the laws of gravity!
  • oldtactics, on 11/24/2008, -0/+3In a year, I fear that we're going to reminisce about this post and discuss how today was the day that Digg jumped the shark.
    Buried for utter suck.
  • mrection, on 11/24/2008, -0/+3seriously, these aren't creative at all... also, to hell with skateboarders - the world is not your skate park :/
  • intekra, on 11/24/2008, -0/+3@skywake - That's not something I would brag about if I were you.
  • kocurejd, on 11/24/2008, -0/+3Hahahahaha, "Absolutely No Skateboarding." Lol, what were they thinking?!?

    /sarcasm
  • derekmas10, on 11/24/2008, -0/+3That last one just screams "OH YEAH! DRY-HUMPING ANKLES MAKES ME HHHHHOOOOTTTT!"
  • pigeonmeister, on 11/24/2008, -0/+2Why was this dugg?
  • haremchief, on 11/24/2008, -0/+2Yeah, he took them off... I wonder what digg would be like if there was an option to delete your comments if they get too many down-diggs ha ha. I guess the OP doesn't stand by what he says.
  • roadnottaken, on 11/24/2008, -0/+2Maybe they didn't want people on skateboards whacking into the folks in wheelchairs.
  • sammydeath, on 11/24/2008, -0/+2i like the terrile one bike co sticker on the last skate sign haha
  • carolyn05, on 11/25/2008, -0/+2Signs are indeed important.
  • dnields, on 11/24/2008, -0/+2Yes, it would appear that someone's feelings were hurt and the captions have been removed.
