Bumpersticker musings...

Personally, I don't like putting stickers on my car of any kind. I cringed when the homeowners association made us add them to our cars so they could 'better police' the pool and hood for those unwanted interlopers.

That being said, I do like to read other peoples bumper stickers. I have actually snapped a camera phone pic of one and sent it to the iDiot because it was funny. It was the "No Child Left a Dime" sticker in the 'No Child Left Behind' theme.

Today my route into work should be deemed the 'American Pride' route. I'm not talking about rainbow pride, but true red white and blue shit kicking, Dixie Chick hating, W glazed eyed and wide open mouth mastication love of the good ole US of A. The standard American flags, Power of Pride, Boycott France, and the USA in the circle ones were all there, along with a few Austin style "I don't have to agree with Bush to love my country" and my fav "Jesus is not a Republican". But there were 2 others that irked me (or maybe I wish I would have though of it and set up a cafepress site to sell them!).

The first on was "Hardcore American" WTF? Do softcore Americans not replace the foreign made parts of the engines in their GM cars, but the hardcore ones do? Or does that mean there will be close ups of their wee bits somewhere on the internet?

The other one was "Native American" and I don't think it meant the ones we stole all the land from. Nope, this one had a good ole stars and stripes next to it and the driver was as white bread as the Beavers dad Ward.

I expect someday soon to see a big ole Redneck looking guy walking along with his klan and a t-shirt that reads "PRIDE" in red, white, and blue letters. BOOYA MOFO! Followed shortly there after by 2 skinny AF model looking guys wearing tshirts that read "PRIDE" in rainbow colors. Oh SNAP!

That would be a good day...
