You see, I am a smart ass.
I am... sarcastic.
I have... what some would call "issues".
Psh. Whatever.
And because of who I am, I feel that one of the coolest inventions in the last several years is the "window cling". Window clings are different from bumper stickers, but only slightly. They go on your rear windshield. Hence the whole "window" part.
Moving on.
Ya see, I have 2 on my car. One is a very large SPURS logo decal. Probably around 16" in diameter and about 8" from top to bottom. I love it!
I also have a "Southwestern University" sticker. Gotta represent, ya know!
Both of these are representative of me. Which is why I have them.
I would like to think that is typically the case. That whatever sticker you have on your car reflects you. Get it. Window cling. Personal reflection.

I'm deep too. Apparently.
Anyway, the problem with that is that when I see stickers like this one...
the first thing that pops into my head is "Well, at least you're up front about being a tool."
I know that tool is the name of a band. I would even say that I'm a fan. But it still just seems so odd to have a sticker that says "tool" on your car. It's like a label.
Which if the driver IS in fact a "tool", then rock on. Again, I appreciate the heads up.
Also, I always end up feeling majorly guilty when I pass up or accidentally cut off people with religious window clings. The ones w/crosses and/or pictures of the Virgin Mary are the worst. But at least they're Christian and will likely forgive me for my overly-aggressive driving style. I mean, they have to, right? They're Christians and that's what we do. We forgive.
Amen.

That is why I only have a "Apple" logo and a NASA sticker. But what I find interesting is when you are passed up or cut off by one with a religious "cling" or sticker or what have you. I have to wonder just how much does that represent? Or were they just borrowing (stealing) their mom's car?
1. Just today I was having a wee bit of a road rage problem with a car that had several Christian window clings and bumper stickers. Sadly it didn't stop me from calling them every name in the book as they drove 10Km along the street....making us all late getting back from lunch.
2. My husband has a bumper sticker that says "My Other Ride is Your Mom"
Now that is classy.
I only have a couple of Nascar stickers on my car (oh and a 2004 presidential campaign sticker I keep forgetting to take down) but I LOVE reading peoples stickers. Never seen a "tool" sticker - but yeah, that one would crack me up - because for some reason you just know the driver really is a tool.
The best ones are the tree huggers / vegetarians / peaceniks. Those folks are hilarious writers of stickers!
