Must Exit Signs say "EXIT"?

gives the Internet a bad name.

Perhaps he can also scribble "SALADa" to appeal to the hispanic crowd ;)

Speaking of EXIT humor, I am reminded of the EXIT sign that P. T. Barnum had in one of his exotic exhibits. After paying their way, and looking at some of the strange and far out exhibits that were in the room, there was a door which had a sign over it that read: THIS WAY TO THE EGRESS. Eager to see some more strange and provocative sights, and not realizing what EGRESS was, they would open the door and go out, only to find that they had exited the room. If they wanted to go back in, they had to go around to the front and pay to get back in again.

Good thinking! And "WHEY OUT" for British tourists, and "SORE TEA" for the French!

You can also put on the glass door of the fire extingusiher box:

In case of fire, breakfast!

Personally, since eveyone knows what the sign means, (there is an exit here), maybe it could have a calming message for those looking to exit fast. Maybe "DON'T PANIC!"
