Put a !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! on my car (hey, it already had the Oppo sticker) and took a vertical photo of it. And yes, I’m of the opinion that bumper stickers on the window are more acceptable than ones actually on the bumper of a car. Also, new Saab badges! No more silver disc!

I don’t consider a bumper sticker on glass a cardinal sin, because (A) it’s not factually a bumper sticker and (B) you put it somewhere you can scrape it off without damaging the car.

What’s the significance of SOLOMON?

Other than being my first name, not much. Unless you count the bible dude.

Gotcha. Wasn’t sure if that was a coincidence or not.

I’ve seen these before:

But I think I’ve only seen that pig one once. I don’t get it?

I look down my nose at people who put bumper stickers on their paint. I’ve seen UV change the paint color in as little as a year. All the Goo Gone in the world can’t fix that.

Subaru’s rally team was sponsored by a Japanese magazine and the pig was thier logo. So naturally it became the cool thing to do, sticking them on Subarus.

This. My Oppo sticker is on my backlight (“rear window”).

...which is why it’s okay to have bumper stickers if you’re kicking it old-school and have a chrome bumper. Chemical resistance, no fade, impervious to damage from plastic scrapers.

There are so many reasons chrome is superior. My wife’s van bumper tells a lot of really boring stories with its scratches and gouges everywhere.

Hey wait, maybe I should put some bumper stickers over the blemishes!

Only 1 cardinal sin - the sticker is cool, and putting it on glass >> putting it on the paint.

Dat portrait pic though...

My excuse for that would be that it was a Snapchat

Wait, so you were filming video* in portrait mode? Ban!

* I’ll turn 50 next week, so I’m probably wrong about Snapchat so whatever :)

You can do pictures or video with snapchat, I was doing the former

that settles it, absolved of 1 of 2 sins. For the other, it’s snapchat, so “eh”.

Not hating, but a counterpoint: Do you really want to make your car a potential trigger for some asshole looking to prove you wrong?

I can just picture a random mean-spirited drunk passer-by reading that and proclaiming “oh yeah!?” before somehow damaging your car... and that’s just based on a response to the text, nevermind any rainbow related prejudices.

I mean, I’d hope not, but society kinda sucks sometimes.

I had thought about that, but I decided to go for it anyways.

I applied this sticker to a side window of my wife’s 5-door Subaru.

Now when we’re on the highway and someone on the right side of us does something stupid, she’s like, “DIDN’T THEY SEE THE PEACE STICKER????”

This is my only reason for not having a bumper sticker of any sort. Just the cardinal rule of: “Don’t be a target”

I know I judge the hell out of people with TRUMP stickers in the same way that person would probably judge me for a FEEL THE BERN sticker. But while I know I am not going to do something about it, who knows what that psychopath might do when roles are reversed.

There is no issue with Portrait PHOTOS. It is Portrait VIDEOS that are the bane of human existence. This is ESPECIALLY true of any video shown on the news. It is ALWAYS a god damn portrait video and pisses me off to no end. Fucking iphone users usually since that is the thing to do.

Honestly I wish phone cameras recorded video in landscape regardless of how you hold the phone, that would solve that problem.

I have an HRC sticker on my car. I insist on it.

Yeah fuck all that. I don’t even put sports team logos on my car for that reason. People are fuckin dumb and if you come across this person messing with your car and crack their skull open you become the criminal. Shit is ass backwards here.
