POLL: Bumper Stickers

Re: POLL: Bumper Stickers

  • My step-dad always taught us to keep a very clean car and that included the windows/bumpers/etc. So, that impacted my opinion I think. But, I cannot stand them. One is maybe not so bad but I HATE when I see a car covered in them.

    And on another note, those "family" stickers irk me too. 

  • I'm not a fan of them. Like you, I've been taught to keep the car clean, and adding stickers ruins it.

  • Can't stand them. I like the clean car look.

    I also dislike the family stickers- the ones with names actually make me angry( safety risk IMO), the ones with just figures are annoying.

     

  • I love them, just not on my car.

    I like to read them, figure them out, judge people based on them.

    Kerry '04 - - really? Might want to take that one off.

    I did just put a window cling of HHI on my car, it felt appropriate since I've been going down there every years since I was like 10.

  • Funny, DH and I just had this conversation today.  We saw a sticker that just said "White Trash."  I turned to H and said, "If he puts that sticker on his car, I 100% believe him."

    Nah, not a fan myself.  They get dated, thereby dating the car.  They look messy, mess up the paint, etc.

  • We don't have any.  I used to have one of those interior long back window clings of my university and sorority when I was in college, but my dad would have flipped if I ever stuck something to my car like a bumper sticker-- he was in the clean car crowd.

    Honestly, there really isn't anything I'm dying to communicate to the world enough to put on my car.  That said, I do appreciate reading them on other people's cars and laughing at them, figuring them out, whatever.  I did crack up at the "Republicans for Voldemort" sticker I recently saw.

    This exactly!  I no longer have the car that I had in college and don't plan on putting anything on my grown up nice car.

  • I've never had any on a vehicle, and I would probably never put one on one, with one exception.  I've always wanted an old beat-up Subaru Justy or VW GTI of vehicle, like below, (to use for car-camping & dirt road exploring) & to cover it in bumper stickers.  Super-cool, I know.

    But for now, we have a kegerator in the garage, and it's covered in what I consider to be cool bumper stickers.  Some of our collection:

  • I have five on my bumper! I love bumper stickers, it's a fun way to express my personality while driving.

  • I do not like bumper stickers, but I do have a little magnet on the back of my car representing Lily's school. I also have the stickers of the little people on my back window. I think they're cute and the kids love them!

  • No bumper stickers for me, but I do like reading them on others.  I'm not a fan of the real religious preachy ones though.  I do get annoyed by people putting political bumper stickers simply because what a pain they are to take off after the election.  And I've seen some from 04, and even older!  LOL
  • I don't do bumper stickers. But I do sometimes put election ones on. But I tape them to the inside of my window so I can easily remove it.

    I do also have a college window cling that I got 2 years ago and never put it on the new car. 

  • I had window clings on my old car of sports teams, but would never put an actual sticker on my car. I do like to try to read them when stopped at red lights.
  • We only ever had college stickers on my parents cars.  We used to laugh that the FIVE stickers from private colleges may has well have been a bumper sticker that read "I am driving this crappy beat up car because I put five kids through these schools:....."  :P 


    We have none on our car - not really our personality.

  • I would never put a bumper sticker on something so expensive but they are fun to read on other people's cars.  Window decals are ok, I used to have an Army National Guard decal in my old car.

    We have a roof rack on our Escape with bike trays so we put stickers on the faring (wind deflector), which stays on the vehicle all of the time.  We also have a rocket box with some stickers on it.  Most of our stickers are outdoor equipment brands, brewery stickers, or places we love like National Parks.

  • My cousin actually got us the chicken one.  It makes me giggle everytime I think about it.  I'm always on the lookout for cool kegerator stickers!  We have a bunch of random product & destination stickers, too, but I love the clever ones most.
