Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: campfire Date: 30 Jul 99 - 12:28 AM It wasn't a bumper sticker, but a T-shirt -well, maybe that's just different bumpers ;) - that said: My Next Husband Will be NORMAL campfire |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Lonesome EJ Date: 30 Jul 99 - 01:42 AM Not a bumper sticker, but a graffito I saw on a restroom wall many years ago.In an angst-ridden scrawl of black ink someone had written " My Mother made me a homosexual." Underneath, someone else had written " If I buy the yarn will she make me one too?" |

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Angus McSweeney Date: 30 Jul 99 - 12:12 PM Saw this one just last week: When guns are outlawed Only outlaws will accidentally shoot their children! Steve Goodman played at Charlottes's Web in Rockford, Il, circa 1973 and commented "Did you hear about Dick Nixon? He saw "Deep Throat" three times and still couldn't get it down pat (Pat)! (I should maybe start a list of people I've offended today.)

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Bryant Date: 30 Jul 99 - 03:20 PM This one's for the scientific crowd: (On a RED bumper sticker) "If this bumper sticker is blue you're driving way too fast." |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Banjer Date: 30 Jul 99 - 06:32 PM Since we seem to be straying from bumper stickers my all time favorite T-shirt has a picture of a reclining dog, looks like a great dane, with his one paw in the universal salute (shooting a bird, for the uncultured among us) and the quote below him says 'Fetch This' |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Celtic-End Singer Date: 30 Jul 99 - 08:13 PM All-time favourite, in the terrible days of Thatcherism, but equally applicable in the terrible days of Blairism: "Guy Fawkes, where are you when we need you?" |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: WyoWoman Date: 31 Jul 99 - 11:10 AM I have a lovely tee shirt that reads, "Fish naked: You might hook the big one." I forgot I had it on the other day when I rode my bike downtown and was standing on the sidewalk talking with friends when I noticed a mother sort of hustling her two sons, about 8 and 9 I'd say, past me with a very unappreciative look on her face. The boys seemed to think it was funny... WW |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Banjer Date: 31 Jul 99 - 02:39 PM That just 'goes to show ya'; Momma's mind was in the gutter and the two boys enjoyed a good play on words...I don't know if this is a repeat or not but the bumper sticker 'du jour' is the one that says, "Driver Carries No Money, Wife and Kids Have It All" |

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: katlaughing Date: 29 Aug 99 - 01:41 PM Seen at Kmart, yesterday, on the back of an elderly, white-haired woman's wheelchiar. An obviosly lively woman, scooting herself along, with her feet, directing the employee who was designated her shopping helper: FBI- FULL Blooded Irish! She was an absolute doll! I told her I loved it and so would several of my friends. She was a talker, gift of gab and mind intact. We visited for quite a few minutes, with her telling me which "home" she lives at, how she orders up a bus ride and takes off to shop, on her own; about her brother who had a mechanic shop; and her maiden name: Mehan (I think). Anyway, I think we both brightened each other's day and when I told her my name was Katey, she started singing "Kkkkkaty, beautiful Katy" to me! Made me really happy to think I knew of others who would appreciate the story and the bumper sticker! So thanks again for being the great friends ya all are! kat(ey) |

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Jen Date: 29 Aug 99 - 03:25 PM I have one: "Question Reality". Thought it was appropriate. I've seen some good ones, but I'll have to keep my eyes open for them and remember to write them down. There's a Shakespearian quote I'd love to put on a t-shirt: "There's small choice in rotten apples".*g* If I wore it at a certain place, some of the people there would ROTFL. Jen |

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Banjer Date: 29 Aug 99 - 05:57 PM This is the first time I have tried to copy and paste from my word processor to the forum. If it don't work my apologies in advance. It's a story that I received by e-mail that ties in with the "Honk if you love _____" series.
The other day I went to the local religious book store where I saw a HONK IF YOU LOVE JESUS bumper sticker. I bought it and put it on the back of my car, and I am really glad I did. What an uplifting experience followed!! |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: emily rain Date: 29 Aug 99 - 10:17 PM *snicker* such luscious nastiness. my mom confessed to me recently that for a long time she thought the jesus fish (without the letters, darwinian legs, etc.) was the logo for some car company. i told her i thought that in and of itself could make a great bumper sticker. |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Sandy Paton Date: 29 Aug 99 - 10:34 PM I think it was Erasmus who said: "When I have money, I buy books. If I have any left over, I buy food and clothing." (T-shirt from PBS). My favorite used-book storekeeper says to Caroline, "Think what he could be addicted to!" |

Imagine Swirled Peas
From the Nixon/Agnew days I remember, The Moral Majority is neither and now we have its more updated version: The Christian Right is neither But I think my all time favorite is the timeless classic twist on the 'pearls before swine parable', Never try to teach a pig to sing; you won't be successful and you'll only annoy the pig.

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: JedMarum Date: 30 Aug 99 - 09:54 AM ... and if y'all will indulge just one minor thread creep digression; I was sitting in the stall at a men's room at DFW airport when I noticed, among the usual homophobic scribblings, one 'author' had written simply Jesus Saves ... another budding literary genius had scribbled in beneath this comment (presumably some time much later) the words, and Lineacre scores on the rebound!. Apparently this is not an uncommon English one-liner, but it struck me as a bit unusual for American bathroom graffiti. |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: paddymac Date: 31 Aug 99 - 12:09 AM and from the Piney woods of the Florida Panhandle "Holvnwvt Momes". (the "v" is sounded like "uh"). It's Muskogee Creek and means (roughly) - "sh-t happens". |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: ddw Date: 31 Aug 99 - 12:32 AM Liam's post reminded me of something I saw on a john wall in the math and sciences building at Cleveland State U. back in the mid '60s.

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Mayberry Date: 31 Aug 99 - 05:10 PM I always wanted to make a bumper sticker that said "Honk if you think I'm doing something stupid!". The best graffitti I ever saw was in a truck stop mens'room cubicle: Truckers do it Better! (different script): Do What! (first script): Don't Know! Too Busy drivin' the Damn Truck! |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Pink Date: 31 Aug 99 - 05:55 PM Seen on a beat up pick-up "Keep back 300', driver dips Copenhagen Snuff." "Don't tailgate me, or I'll flick a booger on your windshield!" "Don't piss me off, I'm runnig out of places to hide the bodies." "My Mom says I'm special." "Keep honking, I'm reloading!" "If you want to finish in 2nd place, follow me!" (blurry letters) "What speed limit?" |

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: sophocleese Date: 20 Sep 99 - 05:02 PM I have a t-shirt that reads; "Bad Cop No Donut". I did actually wear it into a donut shop filled with police officers. I was on trip somewhere and the first place I headed for in the shop was the ladies. When I come out several of the people were snickering and staring at me. I couldn't figure it out at first. I checked my shorts, my hair, my glasses then I realized it was my shirt. OOps! Most of them thought it was funny, two of them asked me where they could get one. |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: katlaughing Date: 20 Sep 99 - 05:06 PM SophoC, I've seen that as a bumper sticker. Another related one is the DARE logo, from the anti-drug program, only instead of saying "DARE" and underneath that "To keep kids off drugs", it says "DARE...to keep cops off donuts!" NOI (no offense intended) to any cop Mudders. But, liam, do we have to have the housework in order to create the dull mind?*G* katlaughing |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: JedMarum Date: 20 Sep 99 - 05:16 PM dull minds aren't created, I think, kat - they just happen (perhaps much the same way as sh*t happens). I once saw a clever graffiti conversation written along the wall of a public entrance to the men and women's room at a restauraunt in Framingham Massachusetts. It read; Women get liberated. Make him sleep in the wet spot! the equally clever, and presumably equally liberated retort penned beneath it read; Liberated men prefer sleeping on the wet spot! |

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: Jack (Who is called Jack) Date: 20 Sep 99 - 11:37 PM I don't know if I put this in the last bumper sticker thread. About 10 years back, David Duke (remember him) ex-imperial Wizard of the Klu-Klux-Klan, claimed he had 'changed his tune', he tried to run for Guv'ner of the great state of Louisiana as a member of the Repubican . The Louisiana constitution calls for an open primary with the top two finishers to fight it out in the general election. Well much to the chagrin of the GOP, and mortification of old G.W. Bush in his taxpayer funded digs up on Pennsylvania Avenue, Mr. Duke managed to finish second behind the right honerable Democratic Ex-Guv, one Edwin Edwards, who's history of self-serving patronage and corruption in office had attained a legendary status on the delta second only to Huey Long. So come November, the good citizens of Louisiana had managed to put themselves in the unenviable position of having to choose between a Klan Wizard (The Hood) or a political criminal (The Crook). The running joke was 'Who ya gonna vote for, The Hood or The Crook". Which gave rise to the greatest political bumper sticker in the history of american politics IMHO. Vote for the Crook--Its Important! |
Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: DonMeixner Date: 21 Sep 99 - 12:26 AM While traveling with the band to a gig in the Poconos we were very slowly passed by an elderly couple who were busy in the front seat of their car conversing in American Sign Language. I can read very little of it but I felt like I was eaves dropping so I looked away. As they passed I noticed their bumper sticker read " Honk if you don't like my driving". |

Subject: RE: Funny Bumper Stickers-Second Edition! From: DonMeixner Date: 21 Sep 99 - 01:52 PM I have always wanted to have some stickers printed up that would be of A #12 x 1 1/2" phillips head threaded fastener. The sticker would be about 1 1/2" in diameter. It would cover the "luv hearts" That we see on bumber stickers realating ones affection for their pets. I imagine a few heads might be turned along the highway. A sticker of the spade from a deck of cards could have an equal effect. But it might also get cheers from the ASPCA and Peta. Don |
