Picture of Obama, with “does this ass make my car look big?”
Earth First!
We’ll log the other planets later
In the 2000’s I guessed correctly that bumper stickers saying “Support the Truth” were available, so I got several.
There really was a man from Nantucket;)
Legalize the truth
I love Particle Beam weapons:)
On an old beat up rust bucket of a car:
“Honk if parts fall off”
“Where’s Lee Harvey Oswald now that we Really Need Him?”
This came out, IIRC, in Gerald Ford’s administration. Please apply to the administration of your choice.
“My other car is a POS, too.”
hh
“There is no gravity: the earth sucks!”
I haven’t seen one in the wild, only read a description: “Have wood for sheep” (or something similar). It’s a Settlers of Catan board game reference.
On a Mini: “(actual size)”
Back in the day, the earliest of the “I’d rather be ___ing” bumper stickers was “I’d rather be sailing”.
The rejoinder soon appeared: “I, too, would rather you were sailing”
Not any one in particular, but I love watching the evolution (ha!) of Jesus Fish stickers, and am always on the look-out for new ones. It’s like a really slow-spreading meatspace meme. So far I’ve seen:
Fish
Fish with “Jesus” inscribed
Fish with legs
Fish with “Darwin”
Fish with legs and “Evolution”
Big fish with “Truth” eating a small fish with “Darwin”
Fish with tentacles and stalk eyes with “FSM”
Fish with “Buddha”
Fish on its side resembling a rocket with “science”
There’s also one shaped like a shark with “Lawyer” written inside.

One could make a whole thread just on variations of
“My other car is a(n) __________________”.
– My other car is a broomstick.
– My other car is a Cessna Skyhawk.
One could also make a whole thread of bumper stickers along the lines of:
– Tree surgeons get into more crotches.
– Glider pilots keep it up longer.
Here’s one I really saw:
Oh, look. C code.
C code run.
Run, code, run.
Run, dammit run!
There was a variation of this in California in the early 1990’s (?) when one-term Rep. Tom Huffington (I think his first name was Tom, IIRC) (yes, Arianna’s former husband) decided to run for the Senate against long-time incumbent Diane Feinstein, and both of them, being bazillionaires, were paying record-breaking amounts out of their own pockets for their campaigns. There was a bumper sticker going around: “Make him spend it ALL, Diane!”
Another one I really saw: “Bee healthy. Eat your honey daily.”
You can also get a parody of this featuring The Flying Spaghetti Monster, and one that says Cthulhu, and many many more.

I once saw on a roofer’s truck: “Roofers do it on the roof”.
What? Is that supposed to be funny? Talk about not getting it!
Another thing that annoys/annoyed me was the proliferation of “Got _____” stickers/window decals when the “Got Milk” campaign was popular. They would usually be on some lame truck belonging to a sand delivery service or something that said “Got sand?” Why would I?
I have a friend who claimed complete ignorance of the “Calvin peeing” stickers during their heyday. Really? I usually hate those but I once saw one that was actually pretty funny but can’t remember what it was. Something like a peeing Calvin peeing on a peeing Calvin.
There was a catalog I used to subscribe to when I was a teenager (and I want to say burningairlines.com, except this is before “dot com” anything <- dating myself) that had an exhaustive selection of “radical” bumper stickers/t shirts/posters, etc but looking at their site it seems they’ve abandoned most of what made them edgy and cool. (They have a Katy Perry page FFS.)
To keep this in the spirit of the OP, I really like the “Coexist” sticker. Also the very simple “Human Rights Campaign” sticker. Thnough I once saw someone who had theirs taped on the inside of their back window. What. You’re committed to human rights until you’re not? :rolleyes:
I don’t recall if I saw this actually on a car, but I saw a Calvin peeing on “copyright infringement” somewhere. Since Bill Watterson never approved any officially licensed Calvin and Hobbes merchandise, all those stickers are stealing his intellectual property.
“My other car is also a Porsche”
