I have to say that one of my all time favorites is:

**Aparagus Festive 19??** in some city in California. It was on the back of a beater truck.

You just don’t see great stickers like that any more.

One of my faves: “My wife’s other car is a broom.”

One that has me puzzled, though, is “You’re ugly and your mother dresses you funny.” I do appreciate how that phrase, in the right hands used in the right occassion, could perhaps be funny. But on a bumper sticker? To whom could this possibly apply but the driver? I just don’t understand.

Don’t know whether it was meant to be funny, but I took it as so: one of those ribbon things, bearing the legend “Support Ribbon Awareness.”

Not so much a bumper sticker as such, but an all-purpose sign anywhere:

DISREGARD

A bit more pointed maybe is:

**If you can read this, you’re not illiterate**

For ten miles on Rt. 83, I was stuck behind a car with a long bumper sticker in a language none of us spoke. I had my passengers copy it down, and it turned out to be Latin for “If you can read this, you are both extremely well-educated and much too close.”
