I currently have none, but on my old vehicle I had quite a collection.

Stupid People Shouldn’t Breed.  
Discourage Inbreeding, Ban Country Music.  
Partnership for an Idiot Free America  
Tattooed White Trash  
Bad Cop, No Donut  
a giant middle finger in one of those white ovals  
And an Opie and Anthony WOW sticker. (I loves me the boobies).

American flag and a Jesus fish. I put the flag there before flag-waving became political, and my father put the fish on my car when he bought it for me years ago (made me raise $3000, then got me a good little cheap but sturdy & new Toyota when I was 16). If you’re accepting a car from someone else, then you better damn well not complain about little stickers the donor puts on it.

I’d love to remove both, especially the fish, but that’d raise a lot of questions with my family. Yet, I can’t help feeling like I’m putting a huge “Fundamentalist Redneck Bush Worshipper” sign on my car these days. Sigh…

I’m an idiot. I’ve had a Kühtai sticker on my rear window for 2 years. What’s the point of skiing an Austrian glacier if you can’t brag about it?

I have two clings on my rear window.

1. Maui shark
2. Maui turtle with flowers

I have a cling on my back side window of Indiana University.

I have a Chicago Cubs plate liner on my rear plate.

I also have a Humane Society magnet paw print on the back of my car.

And I know you didn’t ask, but hanging from my rear view mirror I have a hair thingie with flowers on it. It looks like a mini lei that is purple. I also have a sparkly heart charm hanging there.

My car is pretty common and I have all that stuff to personalize it to me.

I thought it meant she missed Bill from the KillBill movies since he got killed. Though Bill Clinton would make much more sense.

Since I “bought” my car off of my parents, it has stickers from all the colleges my sibblings and I went to (including 2 Cornell stickers); I added one of my current University (_Go state!_) … I also added one for the radio station I dj’d on in college ([www.kspc.org](http://www.kspc.org)) and an “Everybody to the limit” sticker that my fiance gave me.

I have a relatively new car, so I don’t have the traditional bumper stickers. I do have a ‘United States Air Force’ cling on the rear window. I have a Dale Earnhardt #3 and a Dale Earnhardt Jr. #8 cling on each rear pax window. And, I also have a Dale Earnhardt ‘INTIMIDATOR’ license plate frame. Obviously, I’m an Earnhardt fan.
