... well - I was going to purposefully crash into that car, but now I've seen that sign and have registered the fact that there is a young life somehwere inside the car I have changed my mind. I only subject people over the age of 5 to my meaningless wrath.

the purpose of those stickers is to alert the emergency services
in case of an accident where the driver is unconsciousor dead

as such, they should be placed in a passenger side window, not the rear window

but people are idiots

Is THAT what they're for?

I though it was so people could brag about having managed to cultivate a relationship with another person long enough to spawn
and not being sterile

That's what I thought

They're fertility symbols to let people that you don't know, know that you are fecund, or at least were once.

No wrath is ever meaningless.
My therapist told me so.
( Powerpuff Boy ms paint lover, Thu 2 Aug 2007, 13:35, archived)

a friend of mine who's currently receiving therapy for depression was at a session
and the therapist said that if he was feeling angry then he should just break something... to which my friend replied that the suggestion seems sound in some circumstances, but that things have a worth and just acting out on your agression without direction is likely to be dangerous... to which the Therapist replied:

'very good... I won't have to take your driving licence off you then.'

So -- his therapist was trying to trick him...

More people get better while on the waiting list to see a shrink
than get better actually seeing a shrink.

Heh heh
I still don't see the point of these signs.
Don't get me started on the "Princess on Board or "Babe on Board" ones.
( ERG1008 Ich heiße Superphantastisch, Thu 2 Aug 2007, 13:28, archived)

I've seen Italian ones that say 'Bimbo a bordo'.
Not sure if they're serious ones or not though.
( joefish Are we human - Or are we denser?, Thu 2 Aug 2007, 13:30, archived)

Hmm maybe.
Does Bimbo have the same meaning in Italy?
( ERG1008 Ich heiße Superphantastisch, Thu 2 Aug 2007, 13:32, archived)

It's the equivalent of 'babe'.
But I think it still has both literal meanings, whereas in modern English it's rarely used to refer to an infant any more.
( joefish Are we human - Or are we denser?, Thu 2 Aug 2007, 13:52, archived)

I believe the "baby on board" ones were to alert emergency services in the event of a crash
because there is a risk of a baby not being noticed if it is trapped under a seat or something.

The others simply exist so that, if you fancy going on a road-raged killing spree, you can make sure it will at least improve the gene pool.

Oh ok thanks micto, Barbarossa & tipassoi.
I like the road-rage killing spree idea. :o)
( ERG1008 Ich heiße Superphantastisch, Thu 2 Aug 2007, 13:40, archived)

Hmm *thinks*
One of those stickers would go well on the boss' office.
( joefish Are we human - Or are we denser?, Thu 2 Aug 2007, 13:29, archived)

And now,
it's a baby, on a board, on the board.
