Ever walk past a sign and think, “Huh?” This post explains everyday codes and warnings in plain, funny, human language.

Signs and codes are everywhere — on walls, doors, parking lots, job sites — but nobody explains them in plain English. That’s where Knowledge Apparel comes in. We love translating confusing rules into something funny, relatable, and wearable.
Let’s break down a few everyday codes you’ve probably seen… and totally ignored.
1. “No Loitering” — Translation: Don’t Be Suspicious
If the sign is there, trust us… someone did something weird.
2. “Authorized Personnel Only” — Translation: Turn Around
You’re not missing anything exciting.
It’s probably a mop closet.
3. “Hard Hat Area” — Translation: Gravity Is Not Your Friend
If you like your skull intact, you know what to do.
4. “Caution: Wet Floor” — Translation: Walk Like a Baby Deer
This sign exists because humans are slippery creatures.
5. Parking Codes — Translation: This Spot Is Not Yours
Zone A, Lot C, Permit 4…
If you don’t have it, keep moving.
6. “No Exit” — Translation: Do Not Attempt Escape Here
The amount of people who still try is… impressive.
7. “Employees Must Wash Hands” — Translation: You Should Too
Basic hygiene. Universal rule.
Why Knowledge Apparel Uses Real Rules in Our Clothing
Because rules are funny.
And weird.
And half the time they need translation.
Our shirts turn real codes into:
Conversation starters
Wearable education
Smart humor for everyday life
If you’ve ever looked at a sign and thought, “This should be on a shirt,” congratulations — you’re our kind of customer.
