observation


There's a house in my neighborhood with a sign just like this

Instead of putting it at the end of their driveway
they place it practically in the middle of the street

When I see it...
I get this uncontrollable urge to
Hit the gas - floor it up to 95 - and completely obliterate it
then throw my truck into reverse and run over whatever scraps remain

Is that wrong?

If its in the street, its fair game.

There's a house on my street that does the same thing!
I think those signs are ridiculous, getting an urge to run them over is completely normal.

Slow children shouldn't be outside unattended, anyway. I say, forget the sign, go up to the door and slap the shit out of who ever opens it.

It reminds me of "Baby On Board" signs.

I think you'd be justified in ramming it.

Where's the sport in that? The moving targets are worth more points.

It's only wrong if you leave tire tracks on the lawn.

I have to put 4 of those freakin things out in the driveway of the school I work at every day....
Take the thing, take it home and put some rancid kind of liquid in the bottom parts that keep it from blowing away...take it back.Put a note on it saying someone left this at my house you'd better keep it inside from now on....

As a proud parent, I wave my fist at people speeding down our street.

I don't think it does shit, though.
