Do You Really Want the World to Know You're a Cat Lady?

I'm not going to lie, I judge people with bumper stickers.

I hate them - the bumper sticks, not the people (actually, that's debatable).

There is nothing worse than trying to peacefully drive home after a long day’s work, only to be berated by someone’s political agenda, religion or lack there-of, music choice, world views, vacation destination or their child’s recent school success - all via an annoy little sticker on their car.

I don't think I am alone in saying I.DON'T.CARE. Nothing will be important enough for you to tell me as I am driving 60 MPH down the highway trying to avoid rush hour traffic and get home before I parish from starvation.

 

I also don't care how many people and pets are in your family. It is not necessary to have a decal stick figure representation of each one of them. I saw this van once that I could have sworn belonged to the Duggars: 19 Stick Figures and Counting.

In my opinion, the only acceptable things to advertise on your car is the following: 1. A school which you attend/are an alumni of, by means of window cling or license plate decor only. No, I don't mean a vanity plate. 2. Your kids school which they attend/are an alumni of..

...I suppose if you like a sports team a window cling for them is acceptable as well - but only in season.

That's it.

If you really feel the urge to share your political view - write your local paper. If you have a witty one-liner you absolutely need to share with a large group of people who don't care - use Twitter

There are always better options than a bumper sticker.

Otherwise, that one sticker gets you spinning down a slippery slope.
