Church Sign Epic Fails, Vol XXIV

By Christian Piatt
Jul 30, 2012
Share

For all you Arabic number snobs, that’s volume 24 of your favorite cringeworthy church signs. Order up!!!

Mom, mom, can I PLEEEEASE go to that church Sunday?

Pretty sure folks needing a 5X T-shirt aren’t into plain toast.

Funny stuff. Gotta admit.

A fair question was raised. How do all these church folk get away with pirating big corporate logos?

Can’t a brother hitch a ride?

Who’s the white guy?

Nuance and context, BE DAMNED!

Not sure if this is white Jesus or that guy from the “I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter” commercials.

Yaknow, on Rotten Tomatoes, that ratio would be, like, seventeen percent. Just sayin’.

Gotta love Tea Bag references in church.

Rev. Eeyore, presiding.

I know this guy named Jesus; you’ve probably never heard of him.
