What is the point of Baby On Board stickers?
Also, you're supposed to admire the driver's fecundity.
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
you're supposed to admire the driver's fecundity.
Bah. For that I want to see Babies On Board.
any other questions?
What about those of us it enrages? I might be driving less safely because of it, subconsciously.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
They make me think "those things are still around?" - meaning the signs and not babies - and attempt to sing that song from the Simpsons barbershop quartet episode, but since I don't actually remember the song I end up with some to the tune of "Baby, I'm yours".

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I thought that was what the whole-family stick figure things were about.

Jesus, I was behind one of those the other day that took up the entire bottom of an SUV window. Mom and dad, four kids, two dogs, a cat, GOLDFISH. I get it, people. Drive your happy little family out. of. my. way.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I think what's irritating about them to me is the implication that this particular person thinks that their particular child should be and is more important to me, who doesn't know them, than any/all of the other kids on the road, let alone the non-children, and that, therefore, I will drive more safely around them.
The whole-family stickers just seem like bait for "oh, yeah, I know your family" lies, especially when they have names. They also seem to show up a lot on SUVs, so maybe it's an attempt to say, "No, I really do need this much car."

Huh. I haven't seen those.
I need one of a stick figure human and a whole bunch of stick figure cats.
