Hmmmm, those signs could easily be rearranged another way:
1. Jennifer
2. I'm breaking up with you
3. You have 6 days to move out
4. Just kidding
5. Will you marry me?

[–]TheBruceMeister 67 points68 points ago

  1. Burma Shave

[–]pdmcmahon 6 points7 points ago

Upvote for Burma Shave. Read "The Sign by the Side of the Road", great book!

[–]Kensin 2 points3 points ago

Interested, but I can't find it

[–]Arbpink34 33 points34 points ago

And then she drives off the side of the road, killing herself, all because he put them up out of order.

...and?

[–]AnIntoxicatedWalrus 0 points1 point ago

Do you have your bike?

[–]flyawaybullet 3 points4 points ago

Or she drove the wrong way

[–]EyhSteve 18 points19 points ago

Maybe they already were rearranged the other way and some dick came by and broke them up!

[–]reposedhysteria 12 points13 points ago

That would be a dick move.

[–]jFiss 2 points3 points ago

This does not have nearly enough upvotes

[–]reposedhysteria 1 point2 points ago

I don't think people are realizing the pun. Thanks, though.

[–]jFiss 1 point2 points ago

Anytime fellow redditorian, it will just be a secret between me, you, and the other 4 people who have upvoted it so far then (I'm having a weird day, hope this reply makes you feel better about your under-recognized comment)

[–]reposedhysteria 1 point2 points ago

Cheers, and consider me feel-bettered!

[–]metagerm 0 points1 point ago

Totally. As opposed to the kind-hearted one of arranging them in that order purposefully. Double points if the last one was set to mask a sharp turn sign next to a ravine.

[–]dlq84 26 points27 points ago

Mind blown

[–]scottyd23 2 points3 points ago

Are you implying that the photos were uploaded out of order? If so, I like the thought but you can see another sign down the road in the "Will you marry me?" sign. The order posted by OP is probably right.

[–]Canadoz 0 points1 point ago

look up bilgola bends on the map, it's a stretch of road where these were put up and people put signs like this up on a regular basis, here in Sydney, NSW, Australia. I've seen some GOLD there! Good Times,

There's even a set on the google streetview images if you run through from the roundabout heading south.

[–]mike413 -4 points-3 points ago

I was just thinking ... someone could drive by and just ADD a few of these.

He should have written

Jennifer (1/5)
Will you marry me? (2/5)
Just kidding (3/5)
I'm breaking up with you (4/5)
You have 6 days to move out (5/5)

[–]S3DR0 -1 points0 points ago

What if she was driving in reverse?

[–]acindron 9 points10 points ago

I hate the '????' 'Profit' trend.

[–]Zai_shanghai[!] 6 points7 points ago

Trend? It's so old I'VE used it.

[–]In_Dying_Arms 8 points9 points ago

I just hate when people post it for no reason at all, like that idiot you responded to.

[–]acindron 7 points8 points ago

You made him delete his post. Good job.

[–]crkhobbit 0 points1 point ago

It was mildly amusing the first time I saw about 15 years ago. Guys that still post that shit probably still sag their pants too. And call people "boss" and say things are "so money".

[–]mocotazo 125 points126 points ago

You're on a reposting roll for cake day, I see: http://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/rjkyx/hate_it_when_this_happens/

[–]KX71 48 points49 points ago

This person does nothing but repost everyday, I have them RES tagged as "Repost Machine".

[–]Smokyo7 27 points28 points ago

Tagged as 'Reposting Slore' over here.

[–]free_to_try 17 points18 points ago

Slut Whore?

[–]badge_man 13 points14 points ago

Yea, you got it.

[–]chingyduster 5 points6 points ago

What about 'Slunt'?

[–]diggemigre 4 points5 points ago

Siamese lunt?

[–]EdJim 3 points4 points ago

I have him tagged as 'Stinky Shitter Who Deserves To Fart His Brains Out.'

[–]Smokyo7 2 points3 points ago

It's a little wordy don't you think?

[–]Kensin 1 point2 points ago

I like how even though he's a stinky shitter he should fart his brains out instead of shitting them out like you'd expect.

[–]TBMonkey 0 points1 point ago

Sounds like one of the pre-chosen forms for Gozer the traveler.

[–]QuirkmaGuirk 0 points1 point ago

"repost-after-mother-fucking-repost" also fits nicely

[–]riggsinator 2 points3 points ago

Mother of god, you are right. And he has nearly 100k link karma?

Reddit system works! Post 1000 reposts > Post 100 OC. Will probably have negative karma for OC too. Because, "hey man stop self promoting!" bs.

[–]yurimxpxman 2 points3 points ago

That'll teach him!

[–]lavieenrose11 0 points1 point ago

How do you tag people as things?

[–]Kryten_2X4B_523P 13 points14 points ago

I just tagged you as "can't tag things"

[–]161803399 4 points5 points ago

I have you tagged as "can tag things."

[–]RandomPratt 0 points1 point ago

I was going to tag you as "tags people who can tag things" but then realised I didn't know how to do it, but then I figured it out so I tagged myself as "figured out how to tag people" so can you please tag me as "nearly tagged me but tagged himself instead"?

I'd appreciate that a lot.

[–]161803399 0 points1 point ago

Yes, I will do that for you.

edit: done http://i.imgur.com/xC7W0.png

[–]Rndom_Gy_159 1 point2 points ago

I have you tagged as "www.findoutwhatthewebsite'surlisandputithere.com"

Yep. Love what you have been doing with the website lately. sarcasm

Google Reddit Enhancement Suite and download it.

[–]Kensin 0 points1 point ago

you need the reddit enhancement suite.

[–]CrazyHorse84 7 points8 points ago

I think after today, we've all tagged this guy as a reposter.

I'm not in it for the karma or for the glory. As long as someone is keeping people in line, I'm happy. No need for apologies.

[–]thecoworker123 12 points13 points ago

Good Guy Redditor

[–]ventusvir 22 points23 points ago

Have you tagged as a known reposter. I wish I could write a script that automatically downvote your posts every time I come across them.

[–]edrec[!] 2 points3 points ago

I wish I could write a script that automatically downvote your posts every time I come across them.

Why don't you? If you know how to program it's really easy; if you don't, great excuse to learn!

[–]ventusvir 9 points10 points ago

Simply put....

Haha, but in all seriousness it would make an interesting hobby for me for the weekend.

[–]Thinks_Too_Logically 0 points1 point ago

it's really easy

The third most failed course at my university is the intro course for programming with about 50% pass rate. It's very easy for some people, but others will find it difficult or nearly impossible.

Edit for sleep deprivation.

[–]edrec[!] 0 points1 point ago

Except I didn't say that programming was easy. I said writing the script would be easy if one already knows how to program.

[–]ELEMENTALITYNES 4 points5 points ago

Every Jennifer that has a boyfriend in that area is gonna have a bad day.

[–]Pimana 3 points4 points ago

I REMEMBER SEEING THIS ON FUNNYJUNK

WHAT YEAR IS THIS

[–]RandomPratt 3 points4 points ago

The year was 1942, and the British were delivering a solid thumping to the Hun. Thousands of Nazi fighters and bombers were shot down by the Allies, using the famous Bofor guns, manufactured in Ohio. The introduction of the Bofor was a turning point in the war, and the Ohio factory has kept hundreds of hard-working women in jobs, supporting their men as they battle on the front lines.

Meanwhile, in Australia, a WoW-playing sex pest has perpetrated a joke on the well meaning citizens of Sydney, by pretending to break up with a woman he calls "Jennifer". These signs he displayed were responsible for several fatal accidents.

This has been a Newsreel Production.

[–]Asiansensationz 7 points8 points ago

Every Jennifer in the town is sad and leaving their boy friends. Every man who lied with Jennifer was confused but one.

[–]jazzorcist 2 points3 points ago

Every man who laid with Jennifer

FTFY

[–]ftgf_14 0 points1 point ago

Every man who lived with Jennifer

[–]shabutaru118 2 points3 points ago

another repost by the same karma whore.

[–]lucw 2 points3 points ago

STOP REPOSTING SHIT YOU REPOSTER

[–]deadkandy 2 points3 points ago

Hmmmm where have i seen this image before

Oh that's right

On Reddit....all the damn time...

[–]Sparkvoltage 2 points3 points ago

FUCK YOU OP. I have you tagged as "HUGE ASS REPOSTER" and I've come across your tag at least 4 times now on submitted posts and ALL those posts are reposts. Accidently/unknowingly reposting is fine, but this intentional clutter of past shit IS NOT OKAY YOU FUCK.

[–]mybaby51 1 point2 points ago

Thanks for the heads up! Got him tagged now.

[–]Pykoh 0 points1 point ago

Make sure you tag pepsi_next as well.

[–]TheTBeast 2 points3 points ago

I have you marked as Reposting Cunt. Seems to be true.

[–]RandomPratt 0 points1 point ago

can... can you link me to one of these cunts he's reposted?

[–]OriginalityPolice 0 points1 point ago

He actually doesn't seem to repost porn. He could learn a thing or two from Scopolamina...

[–]chingyduster 2 points3 points ago

Jesus, looking at your post history is giving me deja vu.

There's a glitch in the repost-matrix.

[–]choochy 2 points3 points ago

Did you find this on Alta Vista or AOL?

[–]an0n9 0 points1 point ago

haha i used to use altavista to search porn in middle school since my parents never knew what it was. ahhhh altavista good times...

[–]Hypoallergenic_Robot 3 points4 points ago

GET THE FUCK OUT REPOST MACHINE!!!!

[–]turbie 10 points11 points ago

I want to believe this is real, and it is because she cheated on him.

[–]shadmere 17 points18 points ago

The worst possibility is that this is real, and she didn't, and she thought they were happy.

[–]BunsTown 2 points3 points ago

Oh man. That sounds horrifyingly funny. Like in a therapy for life kind of way.

[–]Kensin 1 point2 points ago

the worst possibility is that she was so shocked she ran her car into a tree and died. Her little sister was also in the car and died. Also the guy has cancer but doesn't even know.

[–]Saiing 4 points5 points ago

I remember seeing this the last time it was submitted. I vaguely recall it turned out to be a hoax by some guy just having a laugh. Someone would have to confirm this though - I wouldn't say I was 100% on it.

[–]PedroDelCaso 6 points7 points ago

My mates did this (many years ago) it's all a joke, people do it all the time on this road. My favourite was one that just was Dental plan and Lisa needs braces over and over

[–]Nocorras 2 points3 points ago

It's not real. I was on a forum when they guy posted pictures of the signs and said he was going to put them up.

[–]shontgomery 3 points4 points ago

is this avalon, bilgola area? sure looks that way

[–]samyall -1 points0 points ago

I always see signs on that road. I once saw ~15 for some guys 18th birthday. Its a good road for it cause the bends mean you cant see them all at once.

[–]PedroDelCaso -1 points0 points ago

Sure is

[–]blyan 2 points3 points ago

STOP UPVOTING THIS SHIT dsfkjaskdjfhakjsfd

[–]TMarkos 2 points3 points ago

I'm inclined to think this is the result of googling the most common female name in his area.

[–]PostingNshit 2 points3 points ago

these same signs were posted in my hometown, these pictures weren't per chance taken on the bilgola bends?

[–]octocock 8 points9 points ago

OP has no idea where these photos were taken. If you check his recent submissions he's been spamming reposts for a while now. Especially today.

[–]DVWLD 1 point2 points ago

That's the first thing I thought when I saw this.

[–]PedroDelCaso -1 points0 points ago

Sure is

[–]Nocorras 1 point2 points ago

If that's in Australia then that's it.

The prank originated in ArenaJunkies private forums (WoW arena site) and got picked up by the news.

EDIT: Looked it up and it's in Sydney and yeah the guy that did it was from there.

[–]PedroDelCaso 0 points1 point ago

Yeah he used to play WoW a lot, now he's a sex pest.

[–]RandomPratt 0 points1 point ago

sounds like Jennifer really dodged a bullet, then.

[–]charliss 0 points1 point ago

I like to think some asshole drove past and saw the first two signs, and made the other three himself.

[–]RzK 0 points1 point ago

Meanwhile another Jennifer drives through this area

[–]Deathflid 0 points1 point ago

My favourite version of this is that the first two are put up by some guy proposing and the last three by a fucking GENIUS.

Every guy driving down that road with a girl named Jenn is in for so much shit. IMO its a wonderfully done troll LOL.

Six days is plenty of time to do heinous shit to his house.
