I found this series of on a larger sign in an Italian national park. I have no idea what the sixth symbol from the left is supposed to mean! Number 4 is similarly disturbing. The text also gave no clues. Any idea?

Jeg stoler ikke på en skiltemontør, som ikke ved, hvordan et ø skal vende

[I don't trust a sign technician, who doesn't know which way the letter ø goes.]

Seriously, rather than debating what sex/gender representation should be on the of a facility, why does it never seem to occur to people that the signage should simply be an of a toilet, with the word "toilet"?

I promise you, the toilet accepts your and . The toilet does not distinguish between/among sexes or genders. The toilet serves all and sundry.

My most popular post (toot) here ever was a vinyl highway that had gone wonky (pinned post). Since seeing that one, I've started noticing them all over the place, each one wonkier than the last. But this one may be the most remarkable – not only are the letters curling off, the entire green base of the sign has split and crackled in a way that looks like intricate line art.

Just realised that one of the reasons people find it so hard to find our department is that the ground floor signage in our building gets our name wrong ("Services" rather than "Sciences") and doesn't list us as being on the floor our main reception is on. Ticket filed.

Street sign in the Georgian capital of Tbilisi. One of the things that I like about Tbilisi is the signage. The newest blue sign for Vakhtang VI (ვახტანგ VI) street has it written in Georgian characters on top with it spelled out in the Latin alphabet below.

The older white sign on the left had Georgian on top with Cyrillic underneath. There's also an ancient metal sign dangling from the wall.
