How is that their bad behavior? It’s done because you are riding their ass. Do you not consider not tailgating?

That one’s easy: they’re in it for the money.

IANAD, but I believe the plural is scrota. If you’re in the market, ask around for [truck nuts.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truck_nuts)

As for the OP…there are any number of vulgar bumper stickers out there, with plenty of examples being displayed on actual bumpers. If you want something completely innocuous, [XKCD’s your huckleberry.](https://store.xkcd.com/products/opinions-bumper-sticker)

I loved my **Stupid people shouldn’t breed** bumper sticker. There were people who laughed, and there were those who stared with a puzzled frown, then just walked off with their kids trailing.

Oh, and no mention of **Bend over, I’ll drive**?

It’s not funny. And no one in the history of forever has ever pulled anyone elses anything during sex.

I saw a pick-up last week that had in 6" letters across the rear window; “FUCK ISIS”

The only thing I could think is “Wow, that fat old dude really hates ISIS” and be happy that my 6 year old wasn’t in the car for me to have to explain some people’s complete lack of subtlety or tact.

I once saw **FUCK THE HATERS** in huge, white, fancy italic letters, across the rear window of an old car. Got a picture of it.

It’s funny. I don’t like putting any bumper stickers on my car, but I certainly wouldn’t find it weird if I saw that on some other vehicle.

You just wasted five seconds  
Slow learners; ten seconds

😃

I remember the bumper sticker of the 70s:

A friend with weed is a friend indeed

Saw a “What would Jack Daniels do?” once. I also like 'Lord save me from Your followers". Saw both of those a few times while living in the Midwest.

Years ago in USAF I was temporarily assigned to a base in Florida. I saw these cryptic bumper stickers that said “❤NY? →I-95N” . I didn’t really understand it then. Now that I live in FL full time I really, \*really \*get the joke.

The OP’s sticker seems pretty funny to me, albeit not child-safe. I suspect a few folks here don’t get the full joke.

A few months back I was at Walgreens with my 10 year old daughter, behind [this](http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f44/JoeyJoeyPP/fo_zps8q0defdh.jpg).  
She’s at that age where I don’t mind if she’s exposed to something here and there and, honestly, if I’m watching a TV show or listening to a song with swear words, she won’t even notice them. But that was pretty blatant.
