Inspector Gadget doesn’t understand why people can’t operate his toilet.

Wait, I don’t see the problem with this! »« Ah, I get it now!
- “Have You Flushed with Success” needs a question mark at the end
- “Please Check the toilet is clean” is awkwardly worded. “Please Check that the toilet is clean” might be better.
- The capitalization throughout the sign is strange
- The second sign is a run-on sentence
- “please do this from here on” could imply that you should stand at the sign to flush, as suggested by the comment written at the bottom
Methinks it’s like a bad, but friendly, toilet poem. “Have You Flushed with Success” may be the title — sans punctuation and underlineation, of course.

@Noob – “it’s like a bad, but friendly, toilet poem” HaHa! I can only hope you’re right, but I suspect that perhaps you’re wrong.
My God… why do people have to be told such things? (the sign, not you Noob ;o) ) I mean come ON people… flush the friggin’ toilet when you’re done! At least the photos gave me a good laugh this morning (I don’t even remember who forwarded this to me, but thanks!)

That’s too funny! It should be common courtesy and not require a sign, but seems like enough people live like they were raised in a barn to warrant signage. LOL
I saw a sign in Brooklyn last week that said:
5 T-shirts: $10
6 T-shirts: $10
There weren’t any t-shirts. It seems their math skills were not quite up to par for a business endeavor.
