We were never the type to steal street signs for our bedrooms in our teen years (mostly because we weren't allowed to mess up the paint job in our room by hanging anything up, MOM), but that doesn't prevent us from seeing that there is something supremely hilarious about a town in England named Shitterton that keeps getting its signage ganked. If we had been allowed to hang up illegally acquired geographic markers, Shitterton's old sign (pictured) would be at the top of the list. In fact, so many people had the same feelings that the townspeople coughed up their own dough to pay for a "theft-proof" sign, made out of stone and cemented to the ground.
Call us crazy, but that makes the allure even stronger. Know what's more awesome than a road sign hanging up in your den? A one-and-a-half-ton rock with a NSFW name in all caps as the centerpiece of your backyard garden. Swear words are funny.

Dear Sirs, It is with the deepest empathy that I add my voice to the outcry against this outrageous theft of city property which we have seen far too much of here in our own community....Regards, Margeret Pemberton, Cuntsford, Vt. 98802
