  1. Oh wait…. I totally lied. I did bumper stickers once. When I was living in Vermont everyone would drive around in their Subarus with super liberal bumper stickers that they bought at Everyone’s Books in Brattleboro. I’m pretty sure they would high five as they drove past each other. “Hey you hate Bush! Awesome, I hate Bush too! OMG what a coincidence!”

    So I went down to Everyone’s Books and purchased the following bumper stickers:

    – You Can’t Hug Children With Nuclear Arms
    – Pro-Choice and Proud of It
    – Peace (just a big peace sign)
    – Food the World: End Hunger
    – Meat is Dead

    And I took a pair of scissors and cut them up to say the following, and put them on the back of my diesel VW Rabbit:

    – Pro Nuclear Arms and Proud of it
    – Feed the World Meat
    – Peace is Dead

    I really enjoyed driving around Vermont that summer.

  2. I also don’t do bumper stickers. They’re kind of like t-shirts with sayings. People don’t really do this stuff outside of the United States. I have no idea why the habit of broadcasting sarcastic little snippets and political positions is so popular here.

  3. MM: I’m sorry, I may have become my mother in my old age, but that’s sooooo tacky, not to mention bordering on obscene. What ever happened to dressing appropriately to your size and age?

    I have become my mother too; I think it is terrifying….:)

    The best T shirt with “saying” was “All THIS AND BRAINS TOO”
