I saw one similar to the “Coexist” sticker, except that the word it spelled was “Toxic”. A little confrontational for my taste, but if you want to up your middle-fingers-to-thumbs ratio, you could go for it. ---

I was going to vote for the Coexist one, but as that’s been said, [this](http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.northernsun.com/images/thumb/5308.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.northernsun.com/n/s/5308.html&h=288&w=288&sz=9&hl=en&start=1&tbnid=4hRpG0XsrgFh4M:&tbnh=115&tbnw=115&prev=/images%3Fq%3Deschew%2Bobfuscation%26gbv%3D2%26svnum%3D10%26hl%3Den%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26channel%3Ds%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-US:official%26sa%3DG) will have to do. ---

Just popping in to say \*thanks \* for all the suggestions. I like the “Coexist” one, but of late I’ve noticed a curmudgeonly turn to my discourse, so perhaps I’ll go with “Coexist, f@ckers”. It’s nice to know Cafe Press will do a custom sticker. I’m going to enjoy myself for the next year trying to come up with something pithy \*and \* original. And timeless. And universal. And that’ll change hearts and minds at first glance. “Coexist, f@ckers”. ---

[QUOTE=Shirley Ujest] I’ve always been partial to " Just pretend it’s all ok" ribbon magnets. [/QUOTE] I saw a magnetic yellow ribbon once which said: “Support the Magnetic Ribbon Industry” and I chose not to get it. As I haven’t seen it since, I’m kicking myself. BTW: the white on blue COEXIST sticker is designed and printed by crazy Dr. Bronner’s (ALL-ONE!) family, of the Bronner’s Magic Soap fame. At least, their name is in teeny tiny type on one edge. ---

**SUPPORT THE TRUTH** I came up with the idea myself, but my guess that it was already available as a bumper sticker proved correct: [Gifts - CafePress](http://www.cafepress.com/bobofester) ---

I want to make one that says (as a takeoff on the “Life. What a Beautiful Choice” bumperstickers) “Choice. What a beautiful life.” or perhaps “You can’t be Pro-Choice without Choice.” I know, it’s a theme. What the hell. ---

Ever been on the [Betty Bowers site?](http://www.cafepress.com/bettybowers/52353) It’s part of CafePress and makes for some fun reading. A little confrontational, but that’s OK. FWIW, my own personal favorite, as a child of the 70’s was always “I brake for hallucinations”. ---
