Personality
With a completely no-nonsense and calculated personality, Stop Sign is a brilliant asset here in our corporation. It's almost impossible to get him frustrated, and he only focuses on what's most beneficial to our glorious empire, even outside of work! While some might call this "being close-minded", we like to think of it as the components of being a role-model employee.
History
The stop sign was invented by William Eno in the year OOPS, and was later created by one Harold "Harry" Jackson in the year 1924 or whatever. He had been driving in a suburban neighborhood as per usual for a society going through a Cultural Normal Revolution, to a LAN party to go drinking with his buddies, like any regular person would do. Prior to this event, he was an incredibly reckless driver, smashing through peoples property because nobody had been kind enough to tell him when to stop on the rode. As he was driving he didn't want to make the same mistake once more, and quickly tried imagining the invention that Eno had created OOPS earlier. He came to a stop.
Realizing that he finally managed to control his driving problem through this revolutionary invention he was thinking off, Jackson Jumped with Joy, Jovially being Jolly until he realized that in his happiness he accidentally smashed his car into a mans home and killed him. He realized soon enough that simply imagining the sign in his head wouldn't be enough, as he postponed his trip to the bar with the guys and drove back home to construct the device. 7,440 minutes later, he had finally done it, and so the first Stop Sign was created.
His invention went on to win many awards, as Jackson found fame and fortune in his creation. He later used his spoils to become a reputable donor and investor in the General Motors organization, who helped take the idea of the automobile to the mainstream.
Tragically however, Harold Jackson was assassinated by Eno in his own home just seven years later, as the latter became engulfed in jealously and grief for the former not crediting him for the concept of the Stop Sign.
Functionality
The original intended use of the stop sign was to indicate when the cars should cease moving forward. This became an instant success.
If one comes face-to-face with a stop sign, the proper action is to stop moving forward in their desired direction for a set amount of time. Continue to wait until instructed otherwise by higher forces. Don't worry, you'll know when you need to move again.
- Pranks - One of the earliest uses was bashing somebody's head in with the top of a stop sign, as criminals and other devious evil doers found the metallic material of the invention to be an effective physical weapon to use in their schemes.
- Freeze Tag - Stop signs have been used as a counter to go signs Freeze Tag to counter when the ladder could be used to force disqualifications on those frozen. This has led to a rivalry between both races of sign.
