"Here's Your SIGN" - Background

 

“Here’s Your SIGN” - Background

Grammatical note:  Apostrophes are not allowed in a URL, so the ' in here's is omitted in the link.

"Here’s Your SIGN" is a comedy routine and accompanying song developed by Bill Engvall in the 1990s.  The general idea is that people ask naïve and/or silly questions.  Engvall then makes a cutting comment, and says, “Here’s Your SIGN.”  The SIGN says, “I’M STUPID.”  Here’s an example:

Last time I was home I was driving around I had a flat tire, I pulled my truck into one of these side-of-the-road gas stations, the attendant walks out, looks at my truck, looks at me, I swear to GOD he went, "Tire go flat?"

I couldn't resist.

I said "Nope."

"No, I was driving around and those other three just swelled right up on me."

"Here's Your SIGN."

Bill Engvall reportedly after his performances would sell “I’M STUPID” signs to audience members.  It’s probably useful to have such a SIGN available to give to people who deserve it.  To recognize the fact that stupidity knows no boundaries, below is an appropriate SIGN in a variety of languages.  Copy/Paste the SIGN, print it, and give to your friends, coworkers, etc. when appropriate!

 


 As options, you can download a pdf version of the SIGN from Google Drive, either with or without the black frame.  Here are the links:
