You ever notice that when you see a car on the road whose back end is totally, gaudily covered with bumper stickers, you don't even need to get close anymore to know what they're all about?
I even saw a brand-new Porsche 911 Carrera a couple of months ago with a big NO BLOOD FOR OIL sticker on it. Totally aside from the irony of the statement itself, imagine the mindset of someone who would put any bumper sticker on that kind of car. Some people, apparently, feel so strongly about these matters that it overrides all taste.
Which brings up another interesting thing I noticed: In the run-up to the election, we all saw plenty of pro-Kerry and pro-Bush bumper stickers. But while there were also (and continue to be) anti-Bush stickers up the wazoo... did anyone ever see any anti-Kerry stickers? Because, oddly enough, I sure didn't...
If this signifies anything, I'm sure it escapes me.
