  1. Bob says:

    shaking head at sam

  2. Bob says:

    shaking head slowly back and forth at sam

  3. Wastewheeler says:

    What about dancing? Lionel Ritchie’s gonna be pissed.

  4. Arthur Eld says:

    The day started so nice. Now it’s deteriorating again. Disappointing.

  5. Davea says:

    I think that the man is just trying to limit us some more!
    I’ll walk on the ceiling if i want to!

  6. fLOYD says:

    first pageeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

  7. Matt says:

    This warning is for all dead slow children who may feel like walking up there.

  8. Paz says:

    *Walks on ceiling*

    HAHAHA I DEFY GRAVITY AND THAT SIGN!!

  9. Suppose they need that after the 17 Spiderman sightings last year. 3 more and they call it an epidemic.

  10. wait… whaaaaattttt…..
    *falls to floor and spills glass jug of grapefruit juice*
    they should really put these signs on the walls before one gets half way across the ceiling!
    *limps over there*

  11. lauren says:

    Well the sign is obviously only for Spiderman.

  12. Again says:

    This means YOU, Lionel Richie

  13. gaynorvader says:

    Do you think we should have a comments list for each fail especially for Sam?

  14. mrs_z says:

    Oh, what a feeling
    When you’re walking on the ceiling…!
    It’s like walking in Memphis,
    Walking with my feet about ten feet off of Beale–
    These boots are made for walking,
    And that’s just what they’ll do,
    And one of these days these boots are gonna walk all over the ceiling.

  15. lx says:

    You can use Raid on Sam.

  16. Abbey says:

    damn it!!! I took a picture of this and was going to upload it!!>:(
    but yeah, those are all over the celing in North Station in Boston, I don’t understand why…

    • Smellyhippy says:

      It’s because the ceiling looks to be just roofing material and therefore than cannot structurally support the weight of a person standing on the roof. Therefore they tell people (particularly any maintenance workers) that they cannot stand on the roof. Really, the signs are poorly positioned and worded (roof should be used instead of ceiling, and should be positioned wherever an opening any openings or potential openings in the roof exist).

  17. vanti says:

    Now this obviously is a fail fail.
    The sign sits on a hatch in the ceiling and is obviously against walking ontop of the roof after climbing thru the hatch. Idjets..

  18. 5 eagles says:

    I was first but sam copied and pasted.

  19. Count Orlok says:

    Hahaha! It’s obviously shopped: everybody knows warning signs in Transylvania are in Romanian! And I haven’t seen one of those for a long time anyway. Also: our ability to walk on ceilings is really exaggerated – I always have cramps in my toes for days afterwards. So mostly I do it to impress girls. Yeah gravity sucks! but I like sliding – walking without moving your feet has something.

  20. Tom says:

    spiderpig.. spiiderpig.

  21. czuhc says:

    Someone already did yesterday.

  22. grannycatflap says:

    *looks down at the sign*
    Oh dear

  23. mrs_z says:

    Oh, I go walking after midnight,
    Out in the moonlight,
    Just like we used to do…
    I’m walking the floor over you,
    WALK THIS WAY,
    Talk this way,
    WALK THIS WAY,
    Talk this way,
    Now gimme a kiss!

  24. Bo says:

    As an impartial observer I’ve concluded that most of you can’t read. Every time people listen to Arthur the troll weakens and doesn’t say anything until the next person picks at his rottig corpse.
    If it’s not that then y’all simply enjoy seeing the troll cause others pain.

  25. Mr. Hanky says:

    What if, you were walking upside down on the ceiling wouldnt it be hanging from the ceiling?

  26. PB says:

    Sam is an idiot

  27. Mr. Hanky says:

    Or maybe you could if you ate some smart kids… hmmm I wonder..I’m just gonna go to the basement..

  28. philip says:

    It means “don’t walk on top of the roof.” The placement is a bit weird, but it makes sense to say it, especially if it’s near an exit to the roof.

  29. RockyRoader says:

    What about Blancmange?

  30. LEILA Against Marketing BaconLube™ and FOR the Humane Treatment of *insert most relevant failblog creature here* says:

    What’s his face says you can ‘dance’ on the ceiling. Is that ok?

  31. hobbseltoff says:

    I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that sign. It’s in a shipping container and if you flip one over, you can easily walk on the ceiling.

  32. morgan says:

    these are all over the ceiling at North Sation in Boston.

  33. Marius says:

    Great, now where do I go when I’m climbing the walls?

  34. 小胖子 says:

    Hey, guys! *squeeze*
    Am I late to the party? Been studying for my last final, so I didn’t come on here as much yesterday :P

  35. Lia says:

    These comments used to be relevant. And funny. Now all the boards are devolving just like the ICHC boards.

  36. Time for my 2 hour long spanish class! :( See you guys later.

  37. Emperor says:

    *Gets down from roof*
    Something didn’t feel right.

  38. Cloral says:

    Hey, uh, I went to that gravatar site yesterday and set up an avatar, and it still isn’t showing up here. I checked the email address, and even used their check utility, and it shows up properly there, just not here. What gives?

  39. Nies says:

    An absolut WIN!!!

  40. Dani says:

    i know where that is… it’s in boston… i could never get a good pic of it because i’m too poor to buy a good camera…

  41. D'oh! says:

    What’s obvious is the sign’s intended humor.

    Obvious to anyone but the OP I guess.

  42. anon says:

    you know, it IS possible the sign was placed in the area above the ceiling to warn people not to walk on the “ceiling” (to prevent falling through). there are many auditoriums that have access space above the “ceiling” normally seen by the public (for servicing and stage lighting).

  43. Lathspell says:

    Oh what a feeliiiing to be dancng on the ceiliiiing

  44. Ed the Hyena says:

    “spider pig, spider pig…”

  45. Lionel Richie wouldn’t like this.

  46. yak says:

    If you like this kind of humor try yakkering.com. Its really funny.

  47. n8squared says:

    teh hideout of teh ceiling cat we haz found it

  48. Chass says:

    I remember being absolutely amazed as a small child on a field trip, by the footprints on the plywood ceiling of the picnic shelter we were lunching in… until my teacher explained that the workmen probably just walked across the boards before nailing them up.

  49. sumgy says:

    Mommy, can I defy the laws of physics?

  50. megan says:

    yes, but can we DANCE on the ceiling?

  51. &eye says:

    i’ve seen this at the commuter rail station in Boston… I always wondered… would it be ok to DANCE on the ceiling? maybe if you were Lionel Ritchie?

  52. Sm3rf3tka says:

    its for spiderman!!!!

  53. i_drink_water says:

    I so need one of these signs for my room :D

  54. Dreyfus says:

    life used to be so much more fun until they started making all these restrictions…

  55. shosh says:

    Um. I’ve seen this sign in N.Station in Boston. if i had a camera i woulda taken a picture. thanks to the photographer!

  56. jaynuseuss says:

    That goes for dancing too, Lionel Richie!

  57. Jody says:

    This would be funnier if I didn’t think OSHA might actually require such a sign.

  58. skoot says:

    that was definitely done as a joke.. still hilarious

  59. ajk says:

    this sign is actually meant for ninjas

  60. Lolz says:

    Where was that at LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!

  61. JK says:

    Wait, I ‘ll have to get my glasses so I can go up there and read it.

  62. watch at 2:11…. it’s possible to walk on the celling!

  63. Atrophy Amy says:

    That’s in North Station in Boston, Massachusetts. Just above the Ice cream stand… I saw that sign like 2 days ago, and asked some Security guards about it, apparently, it was a huge joke between them and the construction people.

    • nofalsehero says:

      There are eight or so of them all over the MBCR Terminal. I was drunk the other night, coming home and it blew my mind to find those posted above.

  64. thephantombloggerstrikes says:

    Oh, what a failing when we’re dancing on the ceiling. Bad rhyme but get it?

    #62

  65. Mike C says:

    That’s the ceiling in North Station , a train station in Boston MA. Every time I go there it makes me LOL.

  66. Catherine says:

    Oh, North Station. Us Boston folk, we walk on walls you know.

  67. Cass says:

    LOL. These are all over the ceiling at North Station in Boston, is that where this was taken? I’ve always thought they were a massive fail. xD

  68. glenibaby says:

    anti gravity room of the future

  69. Ruyvaert says:

    Don’t worry, It’s just Lionel Ritchie’s office

  70. Anonymous says:

    It means not to walk on the ceiling on the other side genius. You sir dumb dumb *smacks head and talks in dumb voice*

  71. attorneys says:

    well, this is actually a picture from spider man’s house, so it’s understandable.
