I see this while traveling and always get an overwhelming urge to correct it, which would be an ironic act of vandalism. :p

Do any of you regularly pass a sign on your daily commute that was clearly created by an idiot?

All I can say is that our road maintenance companies in this country must be very high-tech, they're always putting advanced warnings everywhere for upcoming works.
 
Any sign that says:

"Funded By UK Government", I can easily have the little fantasy of plastering paper over it and writing Tax Payers. The same also true of Funded by the EU or ESF. No, European Tax Payers and most likely your own money being returned after they have skimmed off the top
 
A local tradesman has a sign outside his workshop saying " No Job To Small " which annoys me more than it should.

My old dad would never have given that tradesman the time of day, he was far from a 24 carat pedant, but misspelled printed signs used to drive him nuts.
My mum was pushing for a new sofa, and saw an ad in the South London Press for a furniture store in Walworth Road that was having a sale.
We went there on a Saturday morning, and there was a laminated sign in the window, “Discounted Setees.”
My old man said, “I’m buying nothing from there, ignorant ******** can’t even spell settee!”

As for signs, there was a full size advertising hoarding at Upton Park, (I think), Underground station, years ago, for Maycock’s laundry,
It said; DON’T KILL YOUR WIFE, LET MAYCOCK’S DO IT.
 
The sign kinda makes sense to me...

They are letting people know that the toilet that everyone has known to be "24 hour" is no longer 24 hour because people keep vandalising it...

I suppose they should have just said:

"This toilet is no longer 24 hours due to vandalism"

New opening hours: 07:00 to 19:00
