Shankar Vedantam - Looking to Avoid Aggressive Drivers? Check Those Bumpers. - washingtonpost.com Pretty true from my experience, but a ton of crazy people in Bellingham had bumper stickers all over their cars, so it was just a majority thing.
hmm.. i got a decal on my window of LLSOC car club.. guess im a "territorial driver" i can definately see how this psychoANAList of people and road rage can be true though. I guess they need to emphasize the difference between defensive driving and selfish driving in drivers ed.
i saw a great bumper sticker the other day. it said "it will be a great day when our schools get all the money they need and the air force has to hold a bake sale to buy a bomber".
My VW had a bumper sticker that said, "my other ride is your mom". My Subaru has one that says, "I love big dumps" and it has a logo from a local ski hill.
probably the coolest rear deck graphic ive seen is a jesus fish but it had the cthulu monster in it instead.. i was like! whoa! thats awesome. was a cute white girl driving, i shoulda spit some lovecraft game on her to get in her pants.
Most bumper stickers and personalized plates seem tacky to me. Do you REALLY feel strongly enough about what's on that sticker to make your car look like shit? Apparently many do. But the customized plates are the worst. There was a guy here in Cincinnati for a while that had a plate that said "My Jag". Now, a few inches away from this plate was the Jaguar name badge. And he was driving it. So without the $70 specialized plate I was already able to deduce it was his Jag. :roll: On the other end of the spectrum are the folks who create a complex arrangement of numbers and letters that apparently mean something to them but none of the rest of us know what the fuck it says. Take my buddy Kyle for example, here was his custom plate. A cookie for the 1st person to identify what it means: 02BFLPN
lmao. bumperstickers make a car look like garbage. they can be funny though. I'd never put a bumper sticker on my car. I have a license plate frame for Dallas Mavericks but that's it. What annoys me the most is the people that leave the stock license plate frame from the dealer. it just boggles my mind. the car could be pimp, customized, etc, but STILL has that damn thing on it. wtf, seriously dude, you spent the time to get a nice car and/or customize it but you leave the free dealer advertising on it. nice move...everytime i have bought a car, I take that shit off before I even drive off. yes, it's a major pet peeve of mine lol.
Oh god, I forgot to list this! Talk about annoying. I will refuse to take delivery of the car until they remove that shit. And the dealer labeled license plate holders? I take them off and put them under my license plates, like a big plastic washer that protects my paint. But yeah, there's a guy at work with a really nice Vette with the deal ad smacked on the back. What the fuck...
There was a car in the parking lot in Jewel once that had McCain stickers all over it. I wanted to destroy that car.
Another pet peeve? People who leave political stickers on cars YEARS after the election is over. Especially if their candidate was the loser. My buddy saw a car recently that had a Dole / Kemp sticker next to a Kerry / Edwards sticker! The guy actually crossed party lines to follow the loser... :lol:
flippin burgers but on the side drug dealer? ive only seen one ron paul sticker on a truck in my city. i felt "close" to that person then i looked at the 20 something odd vehicles with "W" and bush political garbage stamped mindlessly
Nope! I guess enough people have had time to guess. He's into pinball, so it was a very, very, very vague reference to flippers on a pinball machine. Even he admitted they were lame and has regular plates now. But it's a good example of the cryptic shit people pay a lot of money to display on their cars. I see similar shit nearly every day. Occasionally I'll see one that's well done, funny, etc, but it's rare.
I do not and will not put a bumper sticker on my car. I do however have a license plate frame that says: (top part) The Internet (bottom part) makes you stupid. I did almost order customer plates that read Mr. Ali but passed on it. edit: I too get angered at the dealer license frames.
