    I can’t stand these stupid signs normally. Do you think it’s actually going to change anyone’s driving? Or are you just so excited about your baby that you want the world to know you have a baby?

    Probably an unpopular opinion, but I definitely silently judge anyone who has these on their cars.

      Originally they were there to notify first responders in case of an incident where the driver is incapacitated. You used to see them held up with suction cups so they could be removed when the baby was, in fact, not onboard. It seems like that original meaning has been kind of lost, but they didn’t start out as a “please don’t run into me” sign.

    I would’ve gone with “something something burt ward” for the title.
