Great idea for a topic--enjoyed your response.

After seeing a few of these myself I started keeping a "hall of fame". Some examples:

“something strange happens to 35 here”
“not interstate map road”
“ada kodok” (Indonesian: translates as “there is a frog”) (this was left along a road in Kansas, not Indonesia)
“This isn’t even my state”
“bug”
“snowflake that won’t melt”
“Back up due to taco spill.”

And many, many complaints about GPS signal woes, unreachable road goodies, and scoreboard issues.

How would you respond to a blank "wrong driving instructions" posted from the first tee at a golf course?

New one:
there has been a anonymous wazer showing up all over the map that says joined today M.P.H less then ten. any where from interstate seventy in springfield Ohio to Wilmington it shows up and it's annoying.
Re the previous one, I told him to look for a new caddie or ask the club pro for help.

A few more...

“lemons attacked”
“The Aliens Have Abducted The Road. Eeep!”
“so crazy directions. just look at this.”
“waze just doesn't get this intersection”
“looks like someone screwed up the 85 /101 junction again, damn it”
“HOV lane shows when not allowed on it”
“car unable to fly!” (near an airport where a 6 had connected the service roads around the taxiways [for airport personnel] to the street network on the outside)
“just doing this for pts” (he left 3 like that, and I thanked him for the points)
“just a test. please close” posted by krankyd (I left it open)
“balls rolling across interstate”
“dog chasing balls across interstate”

The last two were left in the same spot, but the situation became much more alarming when I noticed that the person leaving the URs was named balls.

"mulberry street does not go through Smokestone St.. Does NOT extend beyond south of Smokestone St. Mulberry St is a T intersection with Smokestone St, not a cross-intersection."

Am I a bastard for marking it "Not identified"?

Yes, you found it. After I thought about it, I went ahead and marked it solved. Don't want to acquire a reputation.
