| | | | Bumper sticker wisdom
I know, bumper stickers have really faded from the scene since their heyday back in the 70's and in Switzerland they're even scarcer than in English speaking countries but I saw one today on the back of a vehicle (written in English) which made me smile.
It read: Always take life
with a grain of salt..

My favourite was always; "Rugby is a game for men with odd shaped balls."

OOOh, I love bumperstickers, although I've never had any on my car - too many to choose from (plus my husband didn't think I should pi** people off). It's pathetic that I can list these from memory....
Some of my favorites -
If a**holes could fly, this would be an airport!
(no ** in the bumper sticker, of course)
Come the rapture, can I have your car?
Dog is my copilot
My other car is a broom
And of course, all of the politcal ones....

"Work is for people who don't surf"
But I think you have to be a surfer to really understand this one.
Another good one is "If you're riding my ass you better be pulling my hair".
I saw this one in California with my brother. We pulled up beside the car and saw a fat chinese guy behind the wheel.

One that left me a little perplexed, as I saw it twice this weekend:
"I love (heart) Fluglarm"
or my old personal favourite from the late 1970s:
"Save Gas. Fart in a Jar"

Ahh, the Fluglärm/Aircraft noise - means he's an Zurich Airport supporter (with the new fly-over routes and so on, so he probably does not live close  )
I like the democracy-sticker, shame they never really caught on here... | Quote: | | | | | One that left me a little perplexed, as I saw it twice this weekend:
