> [@picker](#): > > One was ‘Nuke a Gay Whale for Christ’ and the other was ‘May the Fetus You Save Be Gay’ I lost that one too – but mine was a bit different. It said “Nuke a Godless Communist Gay Baby Seal for Christ” My “Eschew Obfuscation” bumper sticker only draws curious looks from people I suspect are too embarrassed to ask what it means. ---

When I put the “TOURISTS GO HOME!” sticker on my car 2 years ago I was sure it wouldn’t last. But I guess the tourists are too busy asking for directions and taking pictures of trees to mess with it. I also had a bumper sticker that said “I HATE THIS TOWN” a few moves back that nobody messed with. WTF, I try to antagonize and fail miserably. However, many locals try to buy some of the anti tourist stickers from me, maybe I should start selling them. ---

The “Tourists go home” sticker reminded me. I put an “All Dirt Roads lead to Tech” bumper sticker on my 77 Buick. It was stolen/removed. And I did not think it was offensive, merely poetic. ---

Support our troops yellow ribbon magnet. (in Canada) Twice. I don’t mind it so much because every time I replace them it’s another donation to the Military Families Support fund. ---

Hey, this devoted Christian LOL’d at the stickers - what can I say, I do appreciate humour, evne if (especially if?) it’s at my own expense (or the expense of the beliefs I hold) Heck, I’d get one myself, twould make for some interesting looks in the church parking lot … ---

> [@flickster](#): > > What’s the carbon footprint of the manufacture and printing of pointless Obama bumper stickers? A million-billion carbons per millisecond. Luckily, my Obama sticker isn’t pointless – it makes the point that I like Obama. Much better than those dumb pointless ones. And it’s never been messed with but then I live in Illinois so it hasn’t exactly been a big concern of mine. ---

Some militant Baptist/Mormon/whathaveyou pried my Buddha Fish medallion off the window of my truck last year. My town is full of intolerant religious types. It was quickly replaced. ---

> [@flickster](#): > > What’s the carbon footprint of the manufacture and printing of pointless Obama bumper stickers? Ironically, it’s exactly the same as the carbon footprint of posting a pointless comment on a message board. ---

What’s the carbon footprint? Certainly less than driving an SUV to the mall. ---

I had a bumper sticker that said My other car is a Porsche. I went to get my car and there was a rock with a note where my car should be. It said I left you your Porsche. Aren’t you glad you didn’t park it here? O.K. It didn’t happen.🙂 ---

Back in the early 70s in Austin, I had an annoy-the-hippies sticker on my car. Looked like a peace symbol, but it was a B-52 in a circle and it said Peace Through Power. I walked out to my car one evening just in time to see two individuals muttering and bitching about what an evil S. O. B. I was. One of them walked up and broke my radio antenna off and threw it over his shoulder. It landed right in front of me. Imagine his surprise when I picked it up and started whipping him with it. ---

I have a sizable collection of stickers on my Jeep; none have ever been stolen, but one – a Happy Bunny sticker with the caption “cute but kind of evil” – has been slashed up. I’m still searching for a replacement; my favorite sticker site is sold out at the moment. ---

Had an Obama sticker stolen off my car. That was more of a roll-eyes annoying than anything else. ---

It was eyes rolling annoying until I went to order some more and had to wait because they were out of stock. Now, it’s more annoying because I’ll have to ebay to replace. ---
