We have a sign on the shower door at work - and today, in the midst of my shower, I found myself trying to recreate the posture of the strange eyeless, faceless, bald dude in it, just for fun, like. It's as if the subtext of the sign was actually attempting to say: 'This Is The Offical Way To Have A Shower', so I tried. But, despite it looking like Mr NoEyeNoFaceNoHair is [i]really, really[/i] having fun, no-one in their right mind would ever actually shower like this:

I've also done tried doing similar things for:

(it's very awkward..)

And:

With the pedestrian crossing one - it's actuallly almost impossible to stand like the red man, arms slightly bent at the sides, without looking like a martian.. or walk in that funny kind of awkward way like the green man - bent over, with one arm out front and the other directly out behind. It's complete madness I tell you!

...Or do I just have too much time on my hands? 😛

Is the showering man doing both a hitler tache with his finger and also a salute? Nazi showering, a new niche!

I'm struggling to see how the bin one might be 'very awkward'. Stand next to bin. Extend one bent arm over bin. Drop things in bin.
The only awkward thing appears to be getting the litter to fall in the way the picture shows...

no eyed dear, I'm studying information design at the moment. From the sound of your post, I think you'd fit right in on the same course 🙂

How fulfilled must your life be to worry about such things.

i always dry my hands under hot air dryers like the picture shows, it's surprisingly difficult to get it 'just' right!

The shower one looks like John Cleese's Hitler moustache and Nazi salute.

the shower one:

I think he has one hand on the wall of the shower to steady himself, and the other behind his head trying to appear nonchalant. The picture has been cut at waist level so you can't see what is happening below, but there's another stick figure in it

Used to get lags from Cardiff Prison shouting at you when you walked past there.

The traffic light game is fun in foreign countries, where they have different red and green men to the UK. In some places they have loads of different ones depending on age (I think Berlin has several for obvious reasons).
