Sometimes, as I’m driving along, bored enough to glance at someone’s random bumper sticker, I wonder what the purpose of these really are.
After all, advertising that you plan to vote with a particular politician or that you love Jesus or “Abortion stops my heart from beating” doesn’t really affect anyone else, does it? It’s not like I’m driving by thinking about what I think about Jesus, when that sticker widely affects me. Oh, yeah… I was just wondering about the after-affects of abortion. Now I know.
I suppose it’s more a matter of self-expression, but sometimes I find the major philosophical statements plastered on people’s cars annoying, at best.
I wonder what it’d be like if people always put just the major things they think on a sticker and stuck it on their car.
What would your bumper sticker say? 🙂
Mine would say, “Mean People Suck”.

At least the occasional bumper sticker can be amusing. I’ve never understood the purpose of “Baby On Board” signs on the back windows of vehicles. What are they there for ? Am I supposed to slow down and back off just because there may or may not be a baby in the vehicle ahead ? If the driver is out on his/her own, do they remove the sticker ? Of course not.
I have to assume that like the “My Son Is A Marine” or “My Daughter Is A High School Graduate”, the vehicle owners are simply making a statement – something we don’t do in the UK.

Silverback: I’m guessing there’s a baby in that vehicle and yes, they do want you to not ride their back bumper quite so closely. Of course, you have the alternative of stopping them and checking to ensure they’ve not improperly advertised said baby.
Brennig: shocked. Ok, maybe not. 🙂
Mine would say: “Bumper Sticker” although I do lean towards one with upside down writing on it which says “other way up”.
I like those… I’m almost in the mood to have some bumper stickers made.
Funny bumper stickers are much more fun than depressing ones. 🙂
