Broken: Hotel exit sign
Steve Jackson writes in:
This is from the Tremont Hotel in Chicago. The dueling exit signs appear to point to the door in the middle, which is actually room 607. I'm guessing whoever's in there isn't real happy whenever a fire alarm goes off.
Not photoshopped. Yes, that's my friend Dave looking stupid in front of it, but the arrangement of the signs and door are real.
I stayed at bed and breakfast in Bedford, England several years back. The door to my had a room had a small box on it, with the message "In case of emergency, break glass." Behind the glass was a key to my room.
Inside my room was a fire door leading to the outside. Of course, the layout of the room was such that those escaping would have had to climb over me in bed to get to the door.

Pul leez! This "picture" is so obviously "photoshopped" that it is laughable. It's not even a good fake.
