People Are Sharing Their Favorite Bumper Stickers They Saw And Here Are 50 Of Them (New Pics)
InterviewBumper stickers are pretty straightforward, as they’re exactly what they sound like—stickers that are meant to be applied to the back or front bumper of a car. Many people use them to express their political views, inform everyone what college they’re studying at, or support a sports team or a noble cause. Some paste such adornments to their vehicles to express their quirky personalities and their top-notch sense of humor, making monotonous journeys more entertaining for other fellow drivers and passengers.
The team at Bored Panda has collected such instances from all over the internet and compiled them into this witty little list. Scroll down to find the most playful bumper stickers out there, and make sure to upvote the ones you’d like to slap on your own car!
While you’re at it, don’t forget to check out a conversation with Linda Fairhurst, owner of The Grumpy Tortoise stationary store, and Christopher, owner of Christophermerman small sticker shop, who kindly agreed to tell us more about why people enjoy these adhesive pieces of art so much.

I'm Trying To Make My Work Truck The Antithesis Of Most Trucks With Bumper Stickers I See
A friend of mine met a man over the internet a ways back. The first time they met in person, this guy told her roommate "I like women like I like coffee". Roommate said "Let me guess, black?". The guy says "No; Fresh ground in an airtight container". These two are now two of my best friends, and recently celebrated their 10th anniversary

The original idea was that it would alert the emergency services in case of a bad accident, so the baby wouldn't be missed (RSPCA put a sign on their rear windscreen when they are carrying snakes, to warn the emergency services). Then it just became a cute thing that people buy when they're expecting. I've always taken it as just being an expression of joy.

He mentions that stickers are a simple and adorable way to decorate, while their affordable nature allows the majority of people to purchase a product with a lot of personality.

A Tesla Driver Wants To Make Something Very Clear
My bumper sticker says "Tesla yes, Musk no" Wanted a Tesla for years; then decided no Tesla when Musk lost his mind. Then my van needed $3600 worth of engine work. Wanted an EV so started looking for used ones. Found a gorgeous electric blue Bolt - but $20k and didn't have most of the goodies my wife and I wanted (AWD, memory seats and mirrors, etc.) So looked at the inventory and for $3k more I got a used Tesla Model 3 Long Range AWD. With all the goodies I wanted - at least once I figured out how to use them... Started raining on the way home - had to pull into a parking lot to figure out how to turn the wipers on. :) Anyway, hence the bumper sticker.
This might be self defense. I can honestly see people keying the car (or other vandalism) just because they hate Elon. I've seen some video of people doing this (taken by the car's cameras) but the motive wasn't given.
Polestars are a nice alternative. We were on a waitlist for what seemed like forever for our Rivian & Bronco, neither of which are easily acquired on our island.
Now I know why when my ex husband who bought both a tesla and jeep wrangler (which stinks on fuel consumption) never drives his tesla.
This Guy's Bumper Sticker
I have that quote printed on a t shirt and I've owned it for the best part of a decade :)
There's a bunch of folks I'm not happy with, need to go to store and buy a bunch of Slinkies.
Love this! There are many people I’ve fantasized about pushing down a flight of stairs
Another aspect that attracts people to them is nostalgia, says Christopher. “Especially among adults who grew up with them. From sticker albums to decorating school notebooks, for some, they bring back fun memories or childhood moments.”

Meanwhile, quirky, sarcastic, and sweary stationery store owner Linda Fairhurst from The Grumpy Tortoise believes that playful decals are a fun way for people to express themselves and their interests. And they have no age limit!
“Historically, they have always been seen as a kid’s item, but adults love them too! They are also an affordable way for people to show support to small businesses and artists,” she adds.

The really funny part is that Toyota was originally spelled Toyoda. Mr. Toyoda changed the spelling after the family numerologist said it would bring greater fortune.

Best Sticker I've Seen On A Car In A While
Much better than the "powered by fairy dust" climate deniers.
When it comes to the creation of the stickers, Christopher usually bases the design on what he likes and what purpose they will serve, as some of them are meant to decorate books, while others are intended to be collectible pieces.
While Linda gets inspired by her past experiences. “I keep a running notes app on my phone with ideas as they pop into my head,” she tells us.

We were also curious to know what the key elements of a quality sticker were. Christopher said that “the more simple they are, the better. You need to know how to transmit feelings with a simple drawing. Sometimes it doesn't need to be sentimental or dark. Sometimes it just needs to be a cute bug enjoying nature.”

Nobody understands how insurance works. If anybody ever figures out how insurance works, it will immediately disappear and be replaced by something even more confusing. Some believe this has already happened. (My apologies to Douglas Adams!)
All week my sister has been crying 'I don't know how insurance works' because her car was broken into! Let's just say, my mum did a lot of the work getting it fixed up.
Christopher concluded by saying that stickers are one of the best ways to let one’s personality shine, as they’re affordable and last a long time. Lastly, he wanted to add that “it's beautiful to see someone showing your art with pride, and it's heartwarming to see your design making people happy.”

Virginia. Likely a federal government worker. Gray minivan. This wasn't a joke. The local (American) football team was for years named "Football Team." (It's now named "Commanders," but given their red-and-gold colors, and the fact that "Commander" is a mid-level rank in the U.S. military, but a top rank in the Soviet military, it's hard to see that as a reference to the US military leaders and not the Soviet military leaders. The old name, "Redskins" was deemed racist; I wanted them to simply change their logo from a Native American to a potato.)

It is a quote from a very old (fictional) person. Estimates vary but Gandalf was thousands of years old. So, "very old person" indeed. He actually said the same thing in 1282 BC but back when you had to copy quotes with stone carvings they didn't go viral as often. /J

People Tested Beer Bumper Sticker
Probably Shouldn't Drive, Then
When I see stickers like this I wonder if they work against a person in a DUI case. Obviously doesn't prove drunk but if officer sees erratic driving of some kind, then sees this when they pull them over, seems like they would have more cause to say they suspected the person might have been drinking / wanted to do sobriety tests. Just seems like it doesn't work in your favor. Same as those bumper stickers that say things like I hate pigs or other anti cop stuff. TLDR: Why poke the bear?
