“Say No to Magical Sky Pixies”

Ok, so that’s not true. I’m bumperstickerless, but I’ve only had the car for a couple months. I have some old-style Apple cling stickers, so I’ll probably put one of those in a window. The back window is tinted, though, so I don’t know if it would show through.

“There is some shit up with which I will not put”

And **MannyL** , check your local 'Head shops, they often have the chrome fish. I saw one once that was the fish, and inside it said “Gefilte.”

I saw one that I wish I’d had several years ago. It said, “My other car is a piece of shit, too.”

I’d like to have one that says, “When mean people suck, what do mean people mean by that?”

Hey, MannyL, my Darwin fish was removed as well!

Got mine at [www.northernsun.com](http://www.northernsun.com)

AWESOME collection of bumperstickers - guaranteed to offend just about anybody!

My best one was “official mafia staff car”, on my first car - a '73 Buick Electra 225 TANK (Black, of course!)

Another memorable one was “so many pedestrians, so little time”, placed on the right front quarter panel next to a dent caused by hitting a red pole - the red paint stuck to the dent, and looked pretty much like blood…come to think of it , THAT one was removed, too!:mad:

I don’t have a bumper sticker but I have a sign up in my rear window that I made. It says “IMAGINE PEACE” and it has four symbols in a circle: a cross, a star of david, the crescent moon/star symbol, and the peace symbol.

I used to have a “Darwin fish” that said “And chips” in the middle, but it fell off and broke.

I think the one I’d most like to have is “If you’re not outraged, you’re not paying attention.” Lord ain’t that the truth.

When I was a kid I had one that said, “I love cats - dead ones”. I had to remove it when I went to work as a pizza delivery boy. Go figure. I nowadays I wouldn’t dream of putting something like that on my car.

(Especially since I’ve learned that cats are best when eaten alive.)

Hey! I had a one of the Darwin Fish humping the Jesus Fish, but someone tore it off too! Fuckers. I only had it for like a week. I ordered it online, but I can’t remember the website.

I still have the following:

_“Emancipate yourself from mental slavery; None but ourselves can free our minds”_ with a picture of Bob Marley (that line is, of course, from “Redemption Song”). It’s white with a red Bob and red lettering.

_I Still Believe_ - bought this at the headshop where I used to work. It’s one of those Unamerican Activities stickers - black with white type letters on it.

_Try Listening_ - same as above. The dude who makes those has the coolest website - [www.unamericanactivities.com](http://www.unamericanactivities.com). It’s very thought-provoking, even if you don’t want to buy his merchandise.

_Namaste_, which basically means “the divine in me honors and blesses the divine in you, in truth, we are one, the I AM” in Sanskrit. It’s clear with black letters.

_We Are One_, which is green with white lettering. The “O” on one is an Earth.

_Free Tibet_, which is sort of torn on one side. It has the Tibetan flag in the background and big yellow letters - very colorful.

Finally, a school sticker: _UMBC_, in red and black. Gotta show my pride.

Heat that moose up with a hair dryer, then nudge it with a wooden or plastic tool.

I actually stuck this on a cheap end table at my residence, but said bumper sticker says “The Rex Allen Arizona Cowboy Museum.”

 I wonder if the Fish-swipers are the same people who break off window flags at the plastic base...No, they must be some other group--but I don't want to start a GD. Anyhow, I'm on my third flag now.
   I want another bumper sticker--it's one that I saw in Barstow once. It said: I'm Going Nuckin' Futs!

…is a decal which reads **Bitte Ein Bit**. German Dopers and imported beer drinkers will know this one.

Also, back in the 80’s I bought a little red Chevette that had a **Jesus Christ Is Lord** bumper sticker on it. I’m not particularly religious, but I **am** somewhat superstitious, so I deliberated a while before I finally pulled it off. Luckily I traded it before I’d even had it a month.
