    I think it’s the serif font, more than the lack of capitalization, that weirds me out.

      Imagine if it was a handwriting font? “Live, Laugh, Stop”

      Reminds me of that designing a stop sign video.

    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

      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.

    Not only lowercase, but serifed as well.

    “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
