So there's a sign on Big Bend in Webster Groves down the street from Webster University, my alma mater (go gorlocks), that reads "Caution Deaf Child." At first glance, the driver would think "Okay, some kid with a hearing disability can't hear me driving by and for whatever reason is prone to playing very close to the street where I could hit him or her." Upon further brainstorming, I've decided that this sign does not specify who indeed is in danger. Is it that the driver is endangering the kid? Or is the driver in danger of being attacked by a VICIOUS CHILD THAT IS INCAPABLE OF HEARING YOUR SCREAMS OF HORROR!!!???!? ...Just a thought.
