A common theme we see with groups like this is that the Sign Appreciation Society too doesn’t allow for political or religious discourse–oftentimes, that gives a reason for obnoxious people to ruin everyone’s fun. And that’s what the group is all about, really: lighthearted sharing of the enjoyment of signs.“Although SAS is not a comedy group, it is for fun, but not all signs need to be funny, we have historical and interesting signs and signs that some people appreciate for the sign in itself,” noted the founder.
