A lady and her husband used to van pool with me and she wanted a rainbow sticker for their car "cause it was cute". When he told her what it meant, she changed her mind very quickly.
Shame it doesn’t also have an altered sticker showing a four-legged fish and “Darwin” instead of “Icthus”. The person who dreamed up this farce didn’t exhibit a very fertile imagination.
The lady’s photo they used looks a lot like Betty White....she occasionally plays the role of a ditzy woman who has no idea what’s going on and makes silly double entendre remarks...like THIS gal.
This story strikes me as a lame knockoff of the story of the gullible old woman with the “Honk if you love Jesus” farce that went around the net awhile back.
Last time I saw a car with that many bumper stickers, I pulled along side it, lowered my window and when the other person did the same I told him some complete idiot vandalized their car with all those liberal bumper stickers. I would laugh and drive off.
My sticker says infidel with a big thumbs up sign.
This is a true story:
I was going to a gun show in a large city nearby..a few yrs. ago...In the passenger seat was Rod my giant “once was a marine and still thinks he is” friend of 30 yrs..As we drove down a nasty street on the way...lots of traffic....at about 30 mph .....I noticed a caddy swerving back and forth behind us.....It flew up on Rods “passenger side “ The caddy was new .... had Huge chrome wheels and a large black guy driving it....he had his window down and was half way out of it...... swerving,screaming and waving his arms...... and ......................thats all I saw a glance.............because before Rod could get his window down to figure out what all the yelling was for that caddy just disappeared........I looked in the rear view mirror and there were little car parts rolling in the lane behind me.....as I looked closer I realized that caddy had crashed himself into a parked car!
That guy got so wound up over my sticker...that he crashed.
Anyway I like bumper stickers...I think the freedom they represent is important...as are all forms of honest communication between participants in a society. Maybe random exchange of perspective the most valuable aspect of that communication?
Probably they will be banned soon.
Oh well
