I’ve obviously been a Doper too long. I was merging into thick rush hour traffic when I found myself behind a car with a bumper sticker that left me smiling and thinking of another Doper. **EddyTeddyFreddy** , I wish you’d seen it. It read:

> [@](#):

> I whisper …  
> But my horse never listens.

Anyone else seen any good bumper stickers recently? Anyone got any you wish they made?

The one I have on my car :

“Work like you don’t need the money  
Dance like there’s nobody watching  
Love like you’ve never been hurt.”

My all time favorite bumper sticker for sheer WTF’ness said this:  
“I’ll forgive Jane Fonda when the Jews forgive Hitler.”  
It wasn’t like I saw it in the 60’s or 70’s either. It was the late 90’s.

Sold at the university bookstore–

“My kid and my money are going to Dalhousie University.”

I’ve been tempted to pick that one up for my parents, it just has the wrong school name on it.

I spent the past week reading the first three Harry Potter books. So I particularly enjoyed seeing this bumper sticker this morning:

Republicans for Voldemort

I’ve seen these for several schools, most notably BYU and Texas A&M.

Saw this one yesterday:

“If you see my professor tell him I’m still looking for a parking spot!  
Texas A&M–Corpus Christi”

The background of the sticker is red, and it says: If this bumper sticker is blue, you’re driving too fast.

Explanation: When a light source moves toward you (or you move toward it), the light appears slightly bluer than normal, just like a car honking while moving toward you is higher-pitched than normal. However, you’d have to travel at extremely high speeds, near the speed of light, for the blue shift to be noticeable.

A recent sighting;  
“Doing my part to piss off the religious right.”

All time favorite;
