Notice to Riders
The “Notice to Riders” sign is the epitome of stating the obvious but doing so in a way that’s sure to bring a smile. It boldly declares, “Failure to be at the bus stop at the scheduled time will result in missing the bus.” It’s a classic case of saying what everyone already knows, but with such deadpan delivery, it becomes hilarious. It’s like the sign equivalent of Captain Obvious making an appearance at your local bus stop, ensuring that no one misses the point.
While it may seem redundant, the sheer straightforwardness is what makes it funny. It’s a humorous reminder that sometimes, the simplest messages can have the biggest impact – or at least the biggest laughs. This sign serves as a perfect example of how over-explaining can turn into unintended comedy. Next time you’re waiting for the bus, remember to be on time – or else, you’ll miss it!
