Best. Bumper Sticker. Ever. #5

So we’re heading home from the Central Library this afternoon and while going south down East Street, pull in behind this car with a bunch of bumper stickers on it—also a Kentucky license plate and an Avon advertisement tattooed to the back window (though neither of these things probably means anything at all); and one of those bumper stickers is:



The person—and Darwin as my witness, I swear I could not tell from that distance whether it was a man or a woman in the driver’s seat—had two opportunities to use their turn signals before we parted ways. The person managed to signal their turn from East Street to New York Street, but not their lane change somewhere between East and LaSalle. One out of two for a person who went to the trouble to apply a bumper sticker exhorting others to use their turn signals.

The person also had a Rand Paul for Senate sticker on the same bumper, along with a number of stickers alluding to tree hugging, dirt worshipping, and that sort of thing—so it’s possible that they might just have been a lunatic. (And yes, I suppose it does go without saying that anyone who supports any of the political Paul family would pretty much have to be batshit fucking crazy anyway.)
