What bumper stickers do you have on your car?; ...if any

I know many here either dont have any or loathe the sight of them, but for those of us who do...what stickers do you have?

I have a Bush '04 sticker (obviously from the 2004 election) as well as a Ben Folds sticker. I'm planning on replacing my Bush sticker with a McCain 2008 in a couple weeks.

If I get a new car (currently have a 1995 car), I might not put any stickers on...but for now with my current car, I have two stickers.

U?

PS. I always wanted to create a sticker that said "I hate bumper stickers" :D

A bumper sticker came with my first car, and wouldn't peel off.

No more! I'm not a fan. I can't think of any that I wouldn't grow tired of.

no bumper stickers ever. i feel it's like offering personal information to strangers/unknown people.

you can actually infer a lot about a person by looking at their bumper stickers, type of car, year of car, stickers/permits on the windows (including where you work, where you go/went to school, your gym), things hanging from the rearview mirror, items visible on the dash, condition of car, etc.
i sometimes offer conjectural profiles of people when IT and i are out driving.

just take a look at your car sometime and see all of the stickers, decals, and other identifiable things that you are broadcasting to the public via your car.

i always get a laugh out of the cars that are plastered with bumper stickers!

Mine say "Don't laugh. It's paid for." ROTFL.

But seriously, I never put a bumper sticker on any of my cars. I wouldn't even put a college sticker on my car. It just seemed like a show off thing to do to me.

None.

And it adds weight.

I have none. I hate them. I won't even put a fish on my car.

"The beatings will continue until morale improves."

"God was my copilot but we crashed in the mountains and I had to eat him."

"Skywarn," (tornado spotter class)

"H2 Recovery Team"

"Dive & Surf"

"Don't Be A Dick"

"No Fear" (in red, with a diagonal white stripe through it, as a dive flag)

I believe you but I want to see a pic. Most people with that many stickers are using it to hold together old POS cars. I assume your rig is much nicer.

Hahaha.... Some of them are on the sides, and no... They are just on the bumper. My Jeep is held together with petrified mud, rust, baling wire, and duct tape, mostly. LOL

Especially police. They can acquire a lot of information about you through your bumper stickers, what you have in your car, etc., and based on that, you may have a different experience with a traffic stop if you have revealing info. hanging around.

Yep. My license plate that reads, "Veteran" and "Honorably Discharged," and my bumper sticker that says, "US Army Medic, 1987-1993" has been responsible for my not being ticketed on at least two occasions. :)

You mean like a bong hanging from your rear view mirror?

Frank, you have no idea. My old car was in fairly ratty shape (as was myself back in school), and so my car was searched MANY a time during a "routine stop".

I've strongly considered getting the following for my car:
"support the troops" ribbons
"Troopers are you best protection" bumper sticker
"Family member in the armed services" bumper sticker
"baby on board" magnet for the back
"MIA" bumper sticker
baby chair for the back seat

I'd also want to get one of those personalized plates for policemen of firemen supporters, but I dunno if they have them for my state.

...if I completely sold out my scruples, I'd do that.

Nope, that's not "information". That's "reasonable suspicion".

It's true...I've always wondered if police officers are more often democrats or republicans. So far I guess they are republicans...no tix in 9.5 years! :woot:

If one believes in karma, I think one would expect my car to spontaneously combust while driving tonight. :P

Without a doubt I'd say most of them are Republican.

A buddy of mine was wounded in VietNam and has a Purple Heart Recipient license plate. He never gets tickets, either. LOL
