What existent or putative bumper sticker would you most like to flaunt?

(I have even considered designing an LED display to make my own message manifest.)
 
Physics news on Phys.org
KISS MY AXLE
 
"Kill Bill"

With a penguin in the yellow suit and a hanzo sword at the end.

Saw a shirt like that, it was greatness.
 
I saw this sticker last week and ok, I'm a republican and all, but I laughed anyway:

"Frodo failed. Bush has the Ring."

:smile:

Even I can laugh at that. Clever.
 
I've always wanted one written in backward letters for my front bumper (so the person in front of me can read it in their rearview mirror) that says, "Move over slowpoke!" or "The gas pedal is on the right." :biggrin: Not very funny, but would be very useful. There seem to be a lot of people around here who insist on driving 15 mph under the speed limit.

I can't remember any of the ones I've seen that I thought were really funny at the time.
 
Not really a bumper sticker but found on roadside signs throughout New Hampshire-

In Texas, bumper stickers aren't necessary, those pick up trucks with the shotguns mounted across the rear window say it all. :bugeye:

I like the bumper sticker that says "I hear voices...and they don''t like you".

Sweet! Where did you get this shirt? Or did you make it? I want one! Ahh, the power of math used in a vulgar sense, and all these fools will have no clue what it means. Too bad I did not have one during high school, that would teach the punk administration :biggrin:

Most of them wouldn't get it.

I wonder what my high school calc teacher would ahve said...

For anyone that is wondering what it means your in luck. I have a brother who is very good at math so I had him figure it out :smile: the whole thing equals 69.

Yeah that's the point, most of those punks would not get it :smile:

I too was wondering what my high school calc teacher would have thought. Meh, I am majoring in math ed, so if I do get this shirt I will be interested to see what my profs think :smile:

Yep, it is essentially 13^2 - 10^2 = 169 - 100 = 69

edit.. omg I was searching for this math shirt and I found this one. Almost brought a tear to my eye. It is a joke my high school calc teacher told us when he started teaching us integrals

HouseBoat

pff, wait a minute that is not the one. The one he said was log cabin + C = houseboat.

I did notice that.

I was noticing that too.

ok so what does r=a(1-cos\theta) mean then? o:)

Thats not a dirty joke. Thats the equation for the heart on her bosom in polar coordinates.

there is a graph on her shirt?

I saw a picture for this a little while ago. I think it's hilarious and guaranteed to get attention but it's also disturbing as hell... so I'll post it in white. Seriously, if you're eating or you get disturbed easily don't highlight the following...

... My other car is a vagina full of centipedes!

I warned you... :smile: :smile:

Oh god, I shouldn't post this...lol...BUT I MUST!

Yeah. Most of the people don't even know what it is. The ones that can figure it out just burst out laughing. Just like my Calculus professor did.

There's no point in me getting bumper stickers. No one gets close enough to my car to read them. I think it has something to do with the bazooka I have mounted on the roof of the car...
 
  • #35
Back in the '70's, there were some bumper stickers floating around that read "I FOUND IT!" - the 'it' being religion... Well, I had a friend who had a bumper sticker that read "I FOUND IT! AND NOW MY FINGER STINKS! Her mother would not let he park her car in front of her house until she removed it! :smile:

Best sports bumper sticker was by Boston Bruin fans:

In block print - "Jesus saves" (and in what looked like someone had scrawled it in) "but Esposito scores on the rebound!"

I'd like a bumper sticker with a mirror imaged message on my rear bumper. Just to confuse someone. Maybe ".eno siht si rac rehto yM"
or "?I ma ro sdrawkcab gnivird uoy erA"

Oh, now I remember a funny one I saw. It read, "If God is your co-pilot, switch seats."

Aw that's so sweet.

Not a bumper sticker, but i saw a shirt once:

Lord give me the serenity to accept the things i cannot change, the strength to change the things i can, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of the people i had to kill because they pissed me off.

And another:

People like you are the reason people like me need medication

And:

I tried to see things from your point of view, but i couldn't get my head that far up my @%#

Now that's a version of the serenity prayer I can take to heart!

Okay, that one earned a little chuckle.

:smile: Now, I need to get my hands on that one. I think I should wear it anytime I have to meet with my department chair! We had a faculty meeting yesterday that the dean attended, and the dean asked the chair to introduce the faculty since we don't all know him yet (he's fairly new and an interim dean at that). The chair actually said he'd let the faculty introduce themselves so he didn't embarrass himself with senility! I think that itself was enough to embarrass himself, don't you? In other words, he just admitted he couldn't name all his faculty! Yep, he definitely needs the aid of a proctologist for his eye exams. :biggrin:
 
  • #45
maybe his faculty just aren't that memorable.
bumper sticker:
Doc says I have alzheimer's and cancer, but at least I don't have alzheimer's.

There are a bunch that I like. Some of them are buttons, some shirts, and some stickers... and some are just made-up graffiti stuff. My cousin gave me a shirt years ago that just says 'ESCHEW OBFUSCATION'.

'Beam me sideways, Scotty. Nobody here knows which way is up.'

'You people who think that you know everything are very annoying to those of us who do.'

'Outside of a dog, a book is man's best friend. Inside a dog, it's too dark to read.'

Picture of Milky Way with an arrow and 'You are here.'

'I hope that life isn't one big joke, because I don't get it.'

'I may be slow, but I'm ahead of you.'

'Don't laugh... it's paid for.'

'Rainy days and automatic weapons always get me down.'

Okay, that's it for now; I'm getting bored. :-p
