The Clueless California Car Seat Installation

jeep car seat"Dude, let's go score some weed!"

"Nah, I can't. The wife is getting her face sanded again and she left the kid here. She said I have to stay with it."

"You have a kid?  What's that smell anyway? Can we just take the kid with us?"

"Yeah, there's this seat-thing. You just strap it in the car somehow."

"No problem, dude, let's go!"

.......... 

"Dude. What's that sound?"

"Tunes, man.  There's killer speakers in this Jeep."

"No, dude, it sounds like wailing.  What is that?"

"Oh. That. Yeah. Sounds like the kid.  Maybe we should stop. There's a 7-11. I have the munchies anyway."

...........

"Dude. Its face is all red, what's up with that?"

"I don't know, dude. Let's just wipe the bugs off it and go in."

"Dude. You want to take the baby in too? It's your call."

"Yeah, okay. Might as well. It might spit up or something back here."

You know, I'm cool with bloggers playing fast and loose and not particularly journalistically with the truthiness...

But it does seem that if you're going to write snarky commentary about something that originated somewhere else, you really should give credit to the person who started it!

In this case, I read this on The Poop a couple of days ago...

I did link to that page, actually.  It's under the words, "You just strap it in the car somehow."  But I didn't mention The Poop by name and meant to...so is that half a blog-sin?

okay, that's cool. the new look of babble means that links are pretty much the same color as text, and not underlined, at least in my firefox (windows) at work and safari (mac) at home, so I didn't notice it. my bad!

I wouldn't worry too much about this unless I actually saw a kid in it.

Not exactly the same, but once I bought some stuff from Home Depot or IKEA or something, and had to put both second row seats down, and the only place I had to temporarily put the car seat was in the front seat.

I got a few weird looks and double-takes (and no, my daughter wasn't in it at the time).

Better than when I was driving home from our local mega-shopping complex and at a stop light, I looked at the car behind me, and the people had something large in the back that was sticking out the hatch of their car, and in the passenger seat, one of the parents was holding a kid, maybe about 1 year old or so, in their lap...
