#9: Emojis on a Road Sign? Welcome to 2021
Ah, when the local transportation team is trying to stay relevant, we get lovely upgrades to our street warnings, like this emoji. I’m just impressed they used it correctly! This was either an in-the-know boomer or someone in a younger generation trying to upgrade the signs. Maybe it was really too hot to come up with anything else.
I’m also somewhat surprised the sign is in color. Where I’m from, they haven’t upgraded to this ability yet. I’m looking forward to when it happens, though! On a Karen-y side note, please take these warnings seriously. It’s very easy to underestimate the heat and wind up dehydrated. Crank that AC up in the car and drink plenty of water!
