A long standing peeve(s) of mine are car decorations. From bumper stickers to hanging tassles to license plate holders, I just don’t see the need. “Hey, everyone, look at me! I have something to say!” I was reading this article yesterday and I thought it would be fun to solicit your opinion, Sacramento. Bumper stickers: Yea or Nay?
The Sac Rag 
OK morons and idiots of Sacramento. If you are going to put a ribbon on the back of your car, make sure you put it on right side up. I don’t know about you, but I immediately assume that someone is a moron if they hang their ribbon sticker sideways (like a fish). You see, it’s supposed to be a ribbon, not a fish. The writing is supposed to run up and down the ribbon!
BTW – Yellow ribbons are 2.8 times more likely to be hung incorrectly than red or pink ribbons.

My favorite one was the bumber sticker I saw that said, “Baseball butts drive me nuts!” I’m indifferent to baseball butts but just saying that makes me smile, every time.

For irony’s sake, don’t place your “Support our Troops” ribbon on the GAS TANK lid.

If you ARE going to put a ribbon on your car, you might want to go the snarky route & pick one of these: http://www.supportourribbons.com
Some cars in the Midtown area (esp. near the Natural Foods Coop) are probably held together with an array of bumper stickers. You know the type — the ’86 Toyota Corolla wagon with at least these requisite stickers (and likely more):
-Love your mother (then there’s a picture of the earth)
-These are all the arms we need (with a cartoon of a child with outstretched arms, ready to give you a hug)
-US out of my uterus
-Greenpeace/Sierra Club/WWF
-Darwin fish
I personally have the “support our magnetic ribbon industry” sticker on my bike rack.

i want to make my own sticker to add to the sticker that says “War is never the answer.” Mine will say “What if the question is World _blank_ Two took place between 1939 and 1945…?”
posting on your blog to make fun of people with their 2 cents to put in… Irony or just Coincidence?

I always wanted to make a bumper sticker for the SUVs, that said:
“My other car supports the troops.”
