The horn on my husband’s truck doesn’t work. For that I want “Horn broken. Watch for finger.” For my mom-mobile, I’d like the stick figure family, only with really large snarling drooling dogs. (Which would be accurate, except for the snarling part.) ---

I have one that says “Tourists Go Home!”, and another one that says “Drink Vermont Beer”. Nobody ever asks me for directions, sigh… ---

If I were the bumper sticker type, I’d have… “In event of Rapture, can I have your car?” That and an evolution fish, or a Linux fish. ---

When I was driving a POS car as a teenager, I did the “punk rock sticker” thing, and had several dozen on the back window, trunk, and bumpers. Band logos, record labels, etc. I’d often come out to the car and find new stickers slapped on by passersby. I’ve avoided that on my current car-- I do have a small 2" diameter Suicide Girls logo sticker in the rear window, and a Presidential campaign sticker on my bumper that still gets me yelled at by passersby, but nothing else. I did plan on adding a 2" Burning Angel logo sticker to accompany the Suicide Girls one, but the stickers they sent turned out to be a little more distasteful than I felt comfortable with. I’ve also thought about being a show-off and getting rear-window university stickers for both IU and Purdue, now that I’ve got degrees from both… but oddly enough, I can’t seem to find them for sale any more. Must have been an 80s thing. ---

I saw one recently about he wisdom putting your philosophy on the bumper of your car. I wish I could remember the exact wording. If I ever see it again, I’d get it and put it on the bumper of my car. ---

> [@Ulf\_the\_Unwashed](#): > > I want to get a Smart car. Or an MG, or maybe a mini cooper. Then I want to cover the rear window with stick figures showing a mom, a dad, four daughters, five sons, a Great Dane, and a horse. It’s true I may run out of window space. If so, one of the sons will simply have to go. Mr.Q drives a Mini. I keep trying to persuade him to do this. I’m always amused by the flying spaghetti monster response to the Jesus fish.

Living here in the center of the bible belt I’ve always wanted: Zeus said it. I believe it. And that settles it. Then again anybody who got it wouldn’t be one of the morons it’s aimed at. If I was gonna go for the \*plastered with stickers \*look, maybe several of those with other obsolete deities from various other non-baptist religions. I might also take those little stick-figure family stickers & add a row of them on my drivers door just below the window. Like WWII aces used to paint enemy flags below their canopy for their combat victories. ---

I don’t put stickers on my cars, but if I did, I’d slap on a _“There is no gravity, the earth sucks!”_ bumpersticker. I did have a “State for Moosylvania” decal at one point, but it got scraped off when I got my windows tinted. ---
