They say a picture is worth a thousand words. But we can also invert this popular phrase. As the subreddit r/trashy has shown time and time again, a few words can be worth a thousand pictures as well.

Collecting evidence that suggests the human race might be degrading, the members of this online community have spotted plenty of evocative signs. Like the one saying, “Sunbathing and barbeques are not allowed in the cemetery. Please show respect.” Or another, stating that “We don’t spit on your floors. Don’t spit on ours.”

The mental images they put in your head… There must be so many monsters walking among us!
