rant for a monday.

I hate bumper stickers.  The occasional clever and funny ones are probably an exception to my general rule, but for the most part, bumper stickers make me cringe.  Now, it's one thing to buy a bumper sticker and put it on your car, or to get a bumper sticker for free and put it on your car.  It's even "ok" (relatively speaking) to create your own bumper sticker and have it printed or produced ("professionally") and put it on your car.  It is ENTIRELY another thing to cut a picture out of a magazine and use packing tape to adhere it to the back of your car.

The general public never ceases to amaze (appall?) me.

  1. I once read that people with bumper stickers are more likely to have road rage.
    On the contrary, I kind of love the creativity of the guy who used packing tape and a magazine- I think that's called 'living within your means.'

  2. It may also be called "they didn't have a bumper sticker for the message I was trying to convey." If you're all lucky, the same car will be in my lot tomorrow, and I'll be able to snag a picture of it... brace yourself.

  3. Sadly, the car was not in my parking lot this morning. Although, perhaps that's a blessing in disguise. The magazine picture was borderline pornographic... so (1) I probably shouldn't be posting it on the internet, and (2) without a doubt, this guy should not have posted it on his vehicle...
