Just an odd pairing: on one side, Meat is Murder. On the other side, Pro-Choice I once saw a motorcycle with a little tiny sticker on the back reading Start Seeing Geo Metros. ---

My uncle has one on the back of his truck that says “This Vehicle Protected By Smith and Wesson” I still get cracked up by that one. I saw one in Florida one time that said “No Officer, I’m Not Drunk, I Use the Beer Patch.” ---

Just when the WWJD craze really started to bug me, I saw WWJD–He would stay right except to pass! And I’m sure every computer geek out there has, at some time or other, cracked up at the sight of a “Feature” sticker on a Volkswagon. I don’t have any bumper stickers, and I rarely pay much attention to them, but it is nice to see the occasional person going against the crowd with them. ---

I once saw a massive pickup truck with a Texas licence plate…it had a bumper sticker with one arrow that pointed to the left side that said “El Paso” and an arrow that pointed to the right side that said “El Cruncho” 😛 ---

Mrs. Labrat and I were driving home when we saw an old beater car with a sticker that said, “I’d rather be riding my dildo”. The woman inside looked like a librarian! Another crude one was in a car driven by some teenage kid that read, “Let go of my ears, I know what I’m doing”. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Balance \* > **And I’m sure every computer geek out there has, at some time or other, cracked up at the sight of a “Feature” sticker on a Volkswagon.** I’m a pretty hardcore computer geek, yet I have no idea what you’re talking about. Care to enlighten me? An ex-girlfriend of mine was fond of her DARE-lookalike sticker that said, “DARE to keep the CIA off drugs.” I picked up a sticker at an Army surplus store at one point that said, “I \ Assault Weapons.” I put it on my car just to stir up the bleeding-hearts 'round here. I don’t even own any guns. One of my bleeding-heart friends suggested I also affix a sticker that said, “Arms are for Hugging.” I thought it was a great idea, but I never could find one after that. Damn. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by pestie \* > I’m a pretty hardcore computer geek, yet I have no idea what you’re talking about. Care to enlighten me? It’s the canonical denial that you’ve made a programming error: “It’s not a bug, it’s a feature.” I should have specified that it was a VW Beetle, I suppose… There’s a guy around here with three stickers on his truck: “I love Celtic music.” “The Goddess is alive and Magic is afoot.” “My other car is a zamboni.” I’ve always found that an interesting combination. “Harm none…unless he blocks your slapshot.” ---

One I saw back during the late, lamented, election: “Vote Republican … It’s Easier Than Thinking” What annoys me are those stickers that have a whole paragraph on them. Just how long do you want someone to follow you to read the whole thing? If it can’t be reduced to one line of few words - don’t put it on a bumper sticker. [hijack] Not a **bumper** sticker, but it was a sticker … from MAD magazine, back in the late 60’s, in one of their Special Editions (that cost 50 cents instead of 25), they had a bunch of stamps (no peel and stick back then), my favorite was (in pretty small type): “By the time you finish reading this message, you will have made a complete fool of yourself by going around and around in this revolving door.” [/hijack] ---

“Save a turkey. Stuff an activist.” Recently spotted: “My border collie is smarter than your Honor Student.” ---

And it was! He was the second owner of a 924, until back surgery resulted in not being able to sit that low. ---
