A Family And A New Trend

NEW TREND ALERT!

This was the first one I was able to catch, but these have started popping up all over my area.  Shadowy figures - hockey players in this case, but I have also seen baseball players and ballerinas - are beginning to mix in with traditional sticker families.

Terrible? Yes. Ugly?  Definitely. Infuriate me as much as sticker families?  Absolutely.

Are these really the future? My gut says no, mostly because you can't equip a shadowy figure with the same caliber of accessories as you can a traditional sticker person.  Mom's shopping bags would just look like blobs, and a child with an equestrian hobby would end up looking like a strange centaur silhouette.  We'll see where this goes, but I'm hoping it dies quickly. I can only handle one silly car fad at a time.

Also...I just want to point out that I was also able to catch a dude wearing pajamas and a trench coat in the background. Photo timing level: expert.

A Family Of Guns (And A Pep Talk)

When a friend of mine from Johnson City, Tennessee sent me the top picture, she said, "Only in Tennessee would you see a family of guns!"  I thought she was right until, in my very own neighborhood in suburban Columbus, Ohio, I stumbled upon this double whammy of guns and sticker family hatred.

Even though the bottom picture isn't an actual family, some company somewhere still convinced this person to purchase these stickers and put them on their car.  

We are losing this fight, people. Rear windshield stickers are taking over the world. Even those who supposedly hate these stickers are buying them and proudly displaying them. Is there hope yet? Only time will tell how long people will continue to make these questionable decisions. I promise you, there are better ways to let others know you have a spouse with a job, children with hobbies, and pets who have died.  Stay strong, friends. Together, we are bigger than this regrettable trend.

A Family And A Murderer

It's not exactly a sticker family; it's not exactly even stickers.  It looks like that white medical tape you use to wrap around popsicle sticks when you break your finger, cut into shapes.  If you look closely at the wheels and head on the bicyclist, it looks like a preschooler cut them out with blunt-tipped scissors. This person actually put a legitimate amount of work into looking like a psycho murderer.


Dear Minivan Owner,

So what you would like us to know is that you regularly take out bicyclists and handicapped people with your minivan?  You just run them over?  That's cool.  Yeah, it's totally normal to kill people with your giant car who happen to be riding smaller means of transportation or are disabled. Blatant advertisements of vehicular manslaughter are totally normal.

Also, we can all still see that the bottom one was a handicapped person, even though you clearly got your fill of murdering them after a mere three kills. Do you park in their parking spots, too, ya jerk?

Might I suggest a few rounds of intensive shock therapy or walking into oncoming traffic (perhaps a fleet of minivans?) to cure your hatred of bicycles, wheelchairs, and their owners/riders?
