A Family Who Took Sadness International

 

Fair warning: This post might make you sad.

This photo was taken for me by the sister of one of my best friends, who spends part of each year in Switzerland.  And you can easily tell I'm not lying about this once you note the size and shape of the license plate. I know...I was hoping it was fake, too.

Reasons I'm sad:

1. It's now official.  People the world over have embraced this misguided trend.

2. I thought it was just stupid Americans who thought it was okay to put the names of their family members on the back of their cars.  But alas, no. Coming from someone who has had her identity stolen, YOU ARE AN IDIOT.

3. The kid on the far right either has a pointy goatee or his tongue sticking out, which instantly makes these people cooler than any American sticker family I have ever seen. We just can't keep up. Sigh.

4. I've never been to Europe.  Unrelated, yes, but it still makes me sad.
