That’s an AA or NA thing. It means the driver is an ex-drunk or druggie… Yeah, I’d want to advertise _that!_ :rolleyes:

LOL - that’s “Franklin Academy Parents”. The “S” should probably be lower case. I had a little chuckle the first time I saw one of those.

That’s it! It’s a bit jarring to see it on the back of a minivan.

I saw a bumper sticker that said “Rowsdower” I nearly peed my pants in astonishment. (google it if you’re curious).

It’s pretty much the only good bumper sticker in existence.

I think one saying, “I don’t like bumper stickers” would be kind of funny, but it’s also just a bit too lame to put on my car.

Just about my favorite bumper sticker, seen about a year ago, and breathtaking in its display of sheer intelligence and reasoning power, said, in big letters;

"GOD SAID IT, I BELIEVE IT, AND THAT’S THAT!

Not so much a minivan, per se, but still jarring. Found [a picture](http://www.beyond-awesome.com/index.php?showimage=1502) of it online – I was just talking with a co-worker about that sticker and happened across this forum and thought I’d share. 😛

Last year I saw a minivan with these stickers, and they were labeled. On the left side of the window, was a stick figure woman and two girls and above it said “Us and Mom.” On the right side of the window – I swear to God I am not making this up - was a man and a woman with the words “Dad and his Whore.”

Oh I love that! I’m wondering if that was made special.

> I think most parents end up using the brag stickers because, let’s face it – if your little kid made the honor roll, and brought one home, wouldn’t you feel bad if you didn’t put it on your car? Kind of a guilt thing.

I was a good student in high school, and I received one of those stickers. My parents didn’t put it on the car because it wouldn’t’ve been fair to my sister, who was also in school but was not a good student, and therefore never received such a sticker.

An asshole acquaintance of my mother’s got his license taken away for driving on the sidewalk (“to avoid traffic”, he said. He’s getting senile.) So, when on vacation, I saw a bumper sticker saying “If you don’t like my driving, get off the sidewalk,” I jokingly suggested my mom get it for this guy. She took me seriously and was hell-bent on actually buying it for him, but luckily I persuaded her not to.

I have those! I first had wanted to mock the family pictographs by getting one adult woman sticker and then like, 30 cats. But then I saw they run like $3-4 each. No friggin way.

Hah! The bitterness is strong with this one!

Just have to add my all-time favorite understated bumper sticker:

“Born right the first time”

It’s a reference to the Christian term “born again” for someone who is saved.

I still see a lot of the dorky “Terrorist Hunting License” stickers on cars and trucks around here.
