Long Island resident Seth Bykofsky just wanted to make people laugh, and that’s exactly what he did with his clever vanity license plates. Many years ago, Bykofsky adopted the fatherly admonishment and dad joke of “Pee Before We Go” and turned it into the “PB4WEGO” plates. 

The joke earned Bykofsky some laughs, a few thumbs up and plenty of smiles from fellow drivers. But when the New York State DMV revoked his plates because they were “no longer in compliance,” Bykofsky turned to Governor Kathy Hochul for help. 

“Thanks to the Governor’s Pardon of my plate, my car, with PB4WEGO firmly affixed, is free to roam the country as a Public Service Announcement,” Bykofsky shared exclusively with Woman’s World. “Moms, Dads, Grandparents, rejoice!”

He then added, “I consider this a victory for the little guy, whose voice is all too often drowned out or stifled by the powers-that-be. More importantly, this is a triumph for our First Amendment right of freedom of expression.”

Woman’s World had a chance to catch up with Bykofsky and learn more about the story behind the plates and some of the funny moments they have sparked. 

We also got a hilarious reaction from his daughter, Melissa Bykofsky, who declared she was “embarrassed whenever I borrowed his car and would be stuck in traffic.” She explained that she’d have “cars honk at me to roll down the window and say how funny the plate [was].”

Woman’s World: What made you want to get a vanity license plate in the first place?

Seth Bykofsky: I’m a big believer in individualism, and in speaking my mind. Often, it gets me into trouble. In this instance, I like to think of it as, “good trouble.” The custom plate seemed like a simple way to make a statement—in what I thought was a clever, witty and punny way—as well as to avoid an unnecessary pit stop.

One Woman’s Kindness Started A Ripple Effect Of Joy: “The Good You Put Out Comes Back!”

Every day, 57-year-old Bill Moczulewski, who is legally blind, walked 2 hours to and from his job at Walmart until, one day, a kind woman offered him a ride, and soon he had a team of chauffeurs

WW: What’s the story behind ‘PB4WEGO’?

SB: When my kids were little—and now, of course, grandkids—every road trip was preceded by a fatherly or grandfatherly admonishment to “Pee Before We Go.” They’d shrug, roll their eyes, and, true to form, scream, “WE DON’T HAVE TO PEE!” Sure enough, no more than 10 minutes into the journey, I would hear, “Dad (now, Pops), we have to pee!” To this day my two girls tell everyone that their dad refused to stop the car to let them go.

So getting this plate seemed natural. Well, to everyone, but for the NYS Department of Motor Vehicles, whose algorithms apparently took umbrage to having “P” on a plate.

(Bykofsky’s daughter, Melissa, confirmed that her dad would never stop the car once they’d left. “He would literally never stop at a rest stop when we drove,” she explained. “I blame him for my perpetual dehydration because I was scared to drink too much water in fear I’d need to pee while en route anywhere.”)

WW: Many people have stopped to laugh with you about the license plate. What kind of community have you found since getting them? 

SB: I have found that common bond of community I like to call “humanity.” That which allows us to laugh, not only at the mundane and sometimes silly little things that are a part of our everyday lives, but at ourselves.

Face it, in a world with far too little to laugh about, we could all use a chuckle every now and then. It makes my day when someone sees the PB4WEGO plate and smiles. All of us should aspire to bring more happiness into the world.

This Traffic Stop Proposal Ended In Tears…Of Joy: “I Couldn’t Be Happier!”

When the police flashers lit up behind them, Moriah Prichard wondered what they’d done. She had no idea the officers were answering her boyfriend’s call for help—in pulling off a surprise marriage proposal!

WW: What are some funny stories of people reacting to PB4WEGO? 

SB: What really warms my heart is when, say, folks are crossing the street when I’m stopped at a light. They stare at the plate, momentarily confused, and then, it clicks. An ear-to-ear grin comes to their faces, and I get a big thumbs up. Pure joy!

I’ve also had a police car pull up next to me, the Officer motioning to roll down my window. My heart stopped. “I had to tell you that you gave me a good laugh,” he said. “Nicely played!” 

From all walks of life, every persuasion, all over the political spectrum, people stop, look, and smile. What better way to unite us as a people but a feel good moment, as fleeting as it may be.

I suppose I can sum this up by saying that, with Governor Hochul’s reprieve for my license plate, we can all be relieved, in so many ways, free once again to PB4WEGO!

29 Mom Jokes Guaranteed To Make You Laugh So Hard, You’ll Need a Time-Out

Motherhood is a journey like no other. There are diapers to change, dinners to cook and tears to dry. And sometimes managing it all seems impossible. But one way moms can do it all is with a little bit of humor and grace. Maybe that’s why there are so many mom jokes out there!

What are mom jokes?

We’ve all heard of dad jokes — those cheesy, punny (and sometimes funny) quips that abound on sitcoms and in real life. Mom jokes, on the other hand, highlight the humor in caring for kids and dealing with toddler tantrums, teenage eye rolls, mood swings and everything in between — and beyond! So grab your kiddos and be prepared to laugh way past their bedtime at these 26 mom jokes.

Being a mom 101

• Q: Why do moms always say, “Because I said so?”
• A: Because, “Because science” isn’t always a good enough explanation.
• Being a parent means never having a moment to yourself. Even in the bathroom!
• Mom’s recipe for iced coffee: Have kids. Make coffee. Forget you made coffee. Put it in the microwave. Forget you put it in the microwave. Drink it cold.
• We can’t all be Pinterest moms — some of us are made to be Amazon moms!

Moms and money

• A boy asks, “Mom, can I get $20?” She replies, “Does it look like I’m made of money?” Son: “Well, isn’t that what M.O.M. stands for?”
• Steve and Linda’s son was always calling from college, asking for money. So the next time he asked, Linda said, “Sure. I also noticed that you left your physics book here. Should we send that too?” “Um, sure,” responded her son. Later, Steve was shocked to hear Linda had sent their son $1,100. “But don’t worry,” said Linda. “I taped a $100 check to the cover of his physics book, and a $1,000 check on the inside. He’ll never see it!” 
• There’s nothing quite like being told I’m wrong by someone who depends on me for food, clothing and shelter.

A mom’s work is never done

• I’m going to donate these bags of outgrown baby clothes to Goodwill. But first, I’m going to drive around with them in my trunk for two months.
• I hate when I’m waiting for Mom to cook dinner — and then I remember I am Mom.
• Being a mom is constantly cleaning up after a party you didn’t attend.
•  Mom’s casseroles come in two sizes: not enough and enough to feed an army with leftovers.

• I love my kids—not enough to flip the chicken nuggets halfway through cooking, but I love them.
• After searching several rooms, a woman asked her daughter if she had seen her newspaper lying around anywhere. “Newspapers are so old-fashioned,” the young girl said as she handed her mother an iPad. “People use tablets these days.” Her mom took the iPad, disappeared into the other room for a bit, then came back and said, “That fly didn’t stand a chance!”
• How do you know when something is officially lost? When mom can’t find it.

If being a mom were easy, men would do it!

• I don’t want to sleep like a baby. I want to sleep like my husband.
• Q: Why is Mother’s Day before Father’s Day?
• A: So the kids can spend all their Christmas money on Mom.
• “It’s okay, honey. All I need is a combined total of three hours of sleep,” said No. Mom. Ever.
• What three words solve Dad’s every problem? Ask your mother.
  
  

Motherhood has its own language

A mom texts her teenage son while he’s out with friends: “Hi! What do IDK, LY and TTYL mean?” He texts back, “I don’t know, love you and talk to you later.” The mom replies, “It’s okay, don’t worry about it. I’ll ask your sister. Love you!”
