Lowercase stop sign

I think it's the serif font, more than the lack of capitalization, that weirds me out.
-
Reminds me of that designing a stop sign video.

The only stop sign where rolling through real slow is probably fine
-
Legally speaking, it's not DOT compliant and unenforceable. So you don't have to stop at all. And if you want to, you can actually file a complaint and have it taken down. Traffic control signs must be approved and provided by the city/county.
Anecdotal: I filed a complaint when neighbors erected a speed limit sign in our neighborhood and put a camera on it. They were told to take it down or it will be forcefully removed and they'll be fined for the time and labor involved. It was removed about two weeks later.

in a timid voice "staaahp" 😩

sobs (quietly) "please..."

I think this is a Chik-Fil-A parking lot stop sign—the branding is spot on.
EDIT: Actually, I think I recognize the surroundings, too. This is the Chick-Fil-A off Hobbs Rd in Huntsville, Alabama: https://maps.app.goo.gl/fod76mqmB7sNhEqE7

You did good, PipedLinkBot just did better.

Why did PipedLinkBot think Google Maps was a YouTube video?

Sovereign Citizens will have a field day with this.

SovCits have field days with pretty much any rule they don’t like. They’re prime examples of why we need to be removing warning labels on everything; they’re an end result of far too little chlorine in the gene pool.

it somehow feels condescending.
-
stop.
-
-
Very passive request. Depends how I'm feeling that day
-
-
Well if the sign is gonna flirt with me...
-

-
Not only lowercase, but serifed as well.
-
I read something about this recently but I can’t remember where or find the article at the moment.
These are sometimes installed at high-risk intersections. At these locations, it is thought that people become accustomed to seeing ordinary stop signs, fail to notice them, and fail to stop.
The idea is that drivers unconsciously notice something is different and so these signs gain attention, hopefully restoring the original purpose of the sign.

submissive ass sign
-
This upsets me.
-
Those ones are optional
-
"or whatevs" written in tiny font underneath, indistinguishable by passing drivers - as designed.
Some say it wasn't a good idea to make Becky (age 16) a city planner, but she sure is capable.

Aren't signs like these out up by a private entity, like an HOA? I think the law is that a public and legally enforceable sign is all caps and these are legally distinct enough that they can't be confused for public signs (hence the lack of capitalization) but still communicate the intent.
These signs are also unenforceable so you're free to disrespect them if that's how you feel.
-
Iirc they're still treated as stop signs by insurance companies in the event of an accident

Nice try cop-watching-that-stop-sign.

Stop….. you know… if you want to and stuff.
-
Cursed serif.
-
that's the future liberals want for our country
-
Self driving cars gonna have trouble with that one
-
I love it.
-
It means it's just a recommendation.
-
My guess is that's more like in SQL: you can shout if you want to, but DBMSes also understand lowercase
-
-
I hate it.
-
stop

I think this sometimes happens on private property. Not sure though.

When my friend makes a funny joke I know everyone else will get mad at.
