When I was a kid, I laughed at people swerving to avoid a paper bag. It seemed silly to me. My dad explained why they were doing it, and then chuckled as my eyes got huge and I said “OHHHH!”
Oh, you mean someone’s bag of caltrops might have fallen off the back of the truck? Yes I like this story better. Puppies and kittens should all be cuddled up on sofas. And only be in bags when they choose to jump in there

can you ask your dad to explain it to me as well ?
so this one time when I was a kid, I was biking through a parking lot and kicking at some garbage, because why not
I kicked at an upright soda cup. it exploded all up my legs and looked like I’d pissed myself for the next couple hours
same idea
Paper bags often have glass bottles in them. Glass+tires=a bad time.
oh. what’s the correlation between paper bags and glass bottles ? is it a cultural thing ?
In the US you can’t openly drink in public, but you CAN if nobody knows what you’re drinking
In the US you aren’t allowed to drink alcohol in public. So they put the bottle into a paper bag.
Was it because there might be a puppy or kitten inside?

Ah, I’ve heard way more stories about bags of baby animals tossed out car windows than caltrops.
That’s fair

Or they just put caltrops in paper bags on the road to be mean XD
