    My Doors Spontaneously Chirp At Me... WTF?

    It's an electrical chirp for sure... I just can't figure out what's causing it. It's a rather high pitched chirp... but not really. OK! It's like a high pitched chirp muffled by nasal congestion. I know that sounds funny... but that is EXACTLY what it sounds like. It only chirps for like .2...

    I don't know if anyone else is ranting about this or if any other states have adopted this new sticker, but it is the worst looking piece of crap I've ever seen. It looks like a little cheap piece of inkjet printed paper being held up by scotch tape...except without the sticking quality of...
