This catchy three minute ear candy by Fountains of Wayne has been stuck in our heads since 2003.
She Always Wore Her Seatbelt
By wearing her seatbelt in front of a bunch of young kids, she promoted safe driving habits by showing that even if you have a cool sports car, safety comes first.

She Wasn't Constantly On Her Phone
I mean, it's there in case of an emergency, but Stacy's mom was really rad because she knew that spending more time on her cell phone meant being more disconnected from her family, her "me time", and the beauty of the world around her.

She Cleaned Up Around the House
She knew her daughter (Stacy) was on a date, so instead of embarrassing her by yelling at her to clean up the mess, she nicely and discreetly did it for her. Stacy's potential boyfriend might have noticed her cleaning, but that's because he can't mind his own business.

She Played Sports and Promoted an Active Lifestyle
Those kids probably thinks she was just putting her tennis rackets in the trunk, but she could have easily done that at the tennis court before leaving to pick up Stacy. Instead, she took the opportunity of having Stacy's classmates around to show them that it's cool to be involved in sports and that exercise can be fun. That kid who looks like Ric Ocasek sure thinks so.
