Hello police. Yes im traveling behind a vehicle that is labled as carrying a pathogen and it obviously does not look like it would meet requirments for that type of transport. Yes. Yes. I would think homeland security would make sense. Seems an ask questions later situation for sure.
Opens it
It's a car.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
"What? The sign keeps people from getting too nosy, most of the time."
"I thought this was 'Murica!"
They carrying middle-managers in there?
No. Republicans.
No there's cures for that.
Starts with G and ends with llotine.
The cure for republicanism requires a functioning ballot system.
It's almost too late for America.
This is literally just a joke about how people become obsessed with dirt bikes or track days - whichever type of motorcycle he has in there.
I got infected by that one by my ex girlfriend's father of all people. Still fighting the disease 12 years later. I accidentally infected my wife too.
So that's where all the Abrahamic religions are stored.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure
The cure for religion is education.
Just The Ark of The Covenant
The only cure is more cowbell.
We can be like they are

They'd just be damaging two-wheeled addiction fun machines
Great fake album cover
Genie, for my first wish, I wish that everyone who has ever seen this photo or ever will can just look at the stickers right there on the bumper and see that this is just a joke about being obsessed with dirt bikes, not any kind of deadly pathogen or anything.
Seriously, it’s sad how many people over the years have taken the phrase written there far too literally.
With no context, how are we meant to take what looks like a warning sign?
What does "cry wolf" mean?
The context is right there on the trailer.
“Look twice” is a phrase to raise driver awareness of motorcycle safety. Right below it, though kind of hard to see, it says “[MO]TORCYCLES”
Then there’s the Yamaha sticker. They make motorcycles (and musical instruments lol).
Finally, you think some deadly pathogen would just be transported in a flimsy-ass consumer grade trailer? How about some Occam’s razor?
To “cry wolf” is to unnecessarily raise the hue and cry (either on purpose, or through naïveté), something those taking this phrase literally are far more guilty of than the owner of this trailer.
If I say “Watch out, don’t hurt yourself thinking too hard,” that, like the above, would be understood as a joke even though it takes the form of a warning. It’s not my fault if you freak yourself out worrying about literally hurting yourself by thinking too hard.
A virus. Human beings are a disease, a cancer of this planet. You're a plague and we are the cure.
have you tried more cowbell?
Waffle House syrup.
It's too late for me, I've been addicted for 23 years...
A waffle house right by a day's inn? That's just convenient, ngl
Love Is a social diseaseeee!
DV-55521?
North Carolina
apathy inside
Sure that there not just "greed" in it and the other sticker is just camouflage?
