Ironically, i was just forwarded an e-mail of great poitential bumperstickers. To wit: Great Thoughts From Not So Great Minds… Indecision is the key to flexibility. There is absolutely no substitute for a genuine lack of preparation. Happiness is merely the remission of pain. Nostalgia isn’t what it used to be. The facts, although interesting, are irrelevant. The careful application of terror is also a form of communication. Someone who thinks logically provides a nice contrast to the real world. Things are more like they are today then they have ever been before. Anything worth fighting for is worth fighting dirty for. Everything should be made as simple as possible but no simpler. Friends may come and go, but enemies accumulate. I have seen the truth and it makes no sense. If you think that there is good in everybody, you haven’t met everybody. All things being equal, fat people use more air and food. If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame. One-seventh of your life is spent on Monday. By the time you can make ends meet, they move the ends. Not one shred of evidence supports the notion that life is serious. There is always one more imbecile than you counted on. Never wrestle with a pig. You both get dirty and the pig likes it. Suicide is the most sincere form of self-criticism. ---

I once saw a sticker with a little picture of the mudflap girl – you know that buxom silhouette that’s on so many trucker’s mudflaps. It said “Who is this woman, and how can I find her?” ---

I miss my ex… but my aim is getting better! Jesus is coming (and boy, is he pissed!) It’s never too late to have a happy childhood I always loved those little screw stickers. They used to have them advertised in the back of Rolling Stone magazine, with the ad line: “Screw your hearts out!” Never did buy any of 'em, though. I’d like to see some soccer mom’s SUV with the sticker “I _screw_ my dalmatian”. : D 'Smeggy ---

In line with Zette “Darkstarfagnugan” kept me amused at more than a couple shows. Or how about “Lycanthropy - fight the disease, not the crime” I saw this for the first a couple years ago. Got me to pause for a moment, smile a wee bit, then burst out laughing. “where am I going and what am I doing in this handbasket?” I always had a thing for subtle Deadhead stickers on nice cars… Porches with a small steal-your-face on the licence. * * * Once in a while you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right… ---

It seems like all the witty stickers are gone around here. All I usually see are those damn Calvin pissing on (car brand). I once saw a guy with one of those Calvins pissing on his _own_ car brand, and i thought that was kind of amusing.

I like the “My kid beats up/screws/etc your honor student” ones. Actually, on the old car we had, it said, “My honor student goes to \_\_\_ Middle School.” Right next to it was a sticker, “I get my kicks at \_\_\_\_ Taekwondo School.” What can I say? I’m well-rounded. ---

Three mostly unrelated points on bumper stickers: 1)"…Wisconsin issued some ‘Escape to Wisconsin’ stickers, which could–and were–modified to ‘Escape to sin’. In Northern Virginia, pro-road groups printed ‘Build I-66 Now’ stickers, which saved the anti-road group from having to print their own, since all they needed to do was clip off both ends to make ‘I-66 No’ stickers." I’ve seen here in Chicago (but maybe they’re more widespread) a red “bumper sticker” that says DRIVING in white lettering. As you may imaging, it’s stuck to STOP signs (mainly in densely-populated city neighborhoods) so that the sign reads STOP DRIVING. Clever. 1. How come “My kid beat up you honor student” is always on a piece of crap car built during the Reagan administration or earlier that’s probably worth $500 tops, and that only because of new tires and wiper blades! Maybe because the kind of ignoramus who puts this on their car is envious of people with double-digit IQs. 2. I crack up with laughter when I’m on a bus downtown headed from the train station to my office and a car ahead of the bus has all sorts of “Save the Earth” and “If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem” smug environmentalist bumper stickers. If you care so much about the environment, ride a train downtown, you hypocritical peabrain! It’s especially amusing when the stickers include one slamming all Republicans as evil ravagers of the Earth: hey, pal, I’m a Republican and I’m doing a **hell** of a lot more for the Earth than you are right now!
