Bumper stickers?
« on: July 05, 2007, 11:47:23 pm »
I used to be an Option 1.  Now I'm a 2.  Which is amusing considering I'm tattoo'd.  Easier to mark my skin than my car I guess.

I used to have a Howard Dean, a Radiohead and a "If you think putting on a condom is hard, try it with paws:  Have your pets spayed or neutered" bumper stickers.  Now, I have some remains of the cheap ass Radiohead one, but besides that they are all gone.  I may or may not put more bumper stickers on my car, but I doubt they will be political.

I had a bunch in high school. Now I just have a Mary dot and a parking permit. Which expired Saturday, now that I think about it.

That is excellent.

I have What We Need More of is Science on my dashboard where I can enjoy it myself.  On the bumper I have two pug-related stickers. (A neighbor introduced me to her new roommate by saying "She drives the Pug Bug.")  In my drawer I have a Republicans for Voldemort that I have never gotten the nerve to put on the car.

Mrs. West put a "Keep Louisville Weird" sticker on the back of the Ranger.  I think that's the only one on any of the vehicles.  I'm generally an Option A type of guy.

Only, not exactly.  It's not about not defacing the vehicle -- I'm a huge slob.  It's more that I don't wear my opinions on my sleeve (or my bumper.)

I have an Alaska State Firefighters Association sticker and an NREMT (blue star of life) sticker on there. Well, I had them on my rig in AK, but I'm going to put them on my new vehicle when I get one.

I'm a big fan of innocuous stickers. Plus, I always try to trash cars that have those annoying anti-abortion stickers on 'em.

On an old car I had a "Friends Don't Let Friends Vote Republican" sticker.

My last car was adorned with a "Militant Agnostic: I don't know and you don't either" sticker.

My current car just has a small Redskins sticker to the left, and a small Tony Stewart sticker to the right.

I chose option 1, which is funny considering I drive an artcar.

I am the same way-- even when I had bumper stickers I looked down on any type of writing on tees (it is either free advertising or a really dumb way to say things).  Now all the stickers are gone, but I would get one like the spayed or neutered one again-- it is funny, a good cause, and not really something that is, idk, like, uh... no one will make a profit?  Basically it was funny.

With the tiny writing at the bottom of the punk one you're going to get rear ended by someone trying to get close enough to read.
