20 Hilarious Instagram Street Posters

A picture, they say, is worth a thousand words. In this case, it’s worth a thousand laughs. Since the launch of the Instagram service in October 2010, millions of users have taken to video and image journaling, resulting in a much more focused social media platform that doesn’t waste a lot of your time with boring articles and rants.

1. No Loud Radios

Talk about First World Problems! The Bella Vista Town Watch is on the hunt for evildoers, who play their radios too loud.

2. Cat Found

We really hope this poster from Instagram user drrockso27 is a hoax because if it’s not, then someone seriously needs to take some zoology courses.

3. Klaus

Instagram user drrockso27 scores again with another hilarious animal poster. This time around, we’re introduced to the missing dog Klaus.

4. Lost White Cat

Biting social satire that deals with the state of race relations between Blacks and Whites – not something you would expect to see from a routine road sign arrangement.

5. No Questions Asked

Want a cool way to build your social media following? Try something creative like atanenhaus did with her missing FAQ.

6. Peaches Was Delish

It’s always a little sad when someone has fun at the expense of a missing animal. After all, pet owners treat their little ones like a part of the family.

7. Thank You for Noticing

Instagram user plasticlily didn’t seem too amused with this offering, presumably from a local government body, pointing out, “This is where my taxes go.”

8. Missing Helicopter

Who loses a helicopter? Instagram user guybrarianesque spotted this sign on a night out, and it definitely causes one to do a double-take.

9. Right Lane Must…

User cummins_girl1990 scrutinizes this road sign that appears to have gotten away from the Highway Department.

10. Espresso and Kittens

Are you a parent that sometimes plays a little “fast and loose” with minding their children? User karinaliatiderman has the perfect object lesson so that maybe you’ll be a little more considerate next time.

11. Innocent Grapes

Okay, kriswine, if you say so, we’ll drop by for a glass or two. Nothing works better at goading wine lovers into ordering a drink than playing the emotional angle.

12. Slow Children Ahead

Angelo Carchesio reminds drivers of the importance of punctuation with this funny-bone tickler spotted on a roadside and posted in December 2013.

13. Rudolph

his contribution from Lauri Yates reminds us just how awesome vandals can be sometimes.

14. Red Bull Wings

The vandals are at it again with this bit of free advertising for the energy drink-maker Red Bull. Of course, it also appears that they may have had a little help from the ice and snow.

15. Lost Unicorn

This offering from comedian Mac Putman, going by the handle cobra_heart says about all that needs saying, and we couldn’t agree more. Seriously, if you spot this critter out and about, seek help.

16. Let Us Trim Your Hair

The modernmalebarbershop tapped in to a reality that most married men have faced in their lives. While trying to save a few bucks, you let your non-barber/beautician wife have a go at your hair.

17. Potholes

This sign, shared by masteroftheunivers takes a specific, Three Stooges-esque approach to bicycle safety.

18. Have You Seen This Cat?

This addition from dragonthebomb18 plays with the common convention of posting street signs in search of missing pets.

19. Walken’s Only

Clinic? Hair salon? We’re not sure. Instagram user Alexander Butler doesn’t say – only that you can find this little number in downtown Calgary.

20. Drunk People Crossing

Instagram user jhonbenjie picked up this shot while visiting Thailand. Certainly one of the more interesting safety crossing signs that we’ve seen.
