So,Funny Warning Signsis a Facebook group that deals with all manner of signs. Contrary to the name, it’s not necessarily all warning signs per se. Not even signs sometimes. But what is a warning, anyway, if not a bit of important information that people should be aware of? Oh, and occasional memes too.
Whatever the case, the group is home to a modest 5,400 members and has been around since 2013.As already hinted previously, the group features primarily warning signs, but there are other kinds of signage. This also includes photos of clothing, memes, and other loosely interpreted concepts of signs.

It goes without saying that pairing up humor with signs is a good idea in general. The mainbenefit of humorin a warning sign is that folks typically remember information that was conveyed in a humorous way. It’s theit factorthat makes something unique and hence easier to remember. And to throw out in casual conversation.
There is also the added bonus ofthe other benefits of humor. Jokes are known to increase energy levels, all the while reducing negative emotions, increasing interest in the subject and can form a positive self-image to others. No wonder folks bask in the title of being thefunny man.
It is important to note that there is a degree of uncertainty among some studies of humor. It all boils down to disputes over the mechanisms behind the benefits of humor and how it translates into practice. The general consensus that humor is overall good still remains a more favored conclusion, though humor does manifest differently depending on the situation.
Besides warning signs, humor is considered a good social skill to have. And as such, it is beneficial in scenarios when you’re trying to cheer someone up, when you want to establish a rapport with others, then you’re trying to generate interest, or if you just want the thing you’re working on to stand out more.
Social conventions aside, humor is a great mnemonic (tool for memorizing and remembering) and makes teaching more effective.This is besides humor and jokes being a good way of generating unique approaches and ideas to things, especially in terms of marketing and communication.

Humor has a number of facets that folks ought to consider before using for maximum effect. The user has to consider the type, style, amount, timing and delivery. After all, dark humor is not for everyone, some get tired of it fast, some don’t pick up on sarcasm, and sometimes it’sjust too soon. But that’s what makes humor amazing—the unique variety of combinations available to you.

And humor on signs adds a new dimension of depth—a situation in which you’d expect a lot of formality and not much creativity as signs are there to inform, usually those who can’t get distracted and thus need a very precise message. The restrictions and limitations only add to the challenge.
