Which is dumber: Bumper Stickers or Magnetic Ribbons?

[BB73]

Both are generally dumb, but some specific ones of each are acceptable:

They both suck, I chose stickers because they are stickers however, both damage the paint job of your car and the magnets are copies of the stickers.

You're damn right it does. Time to live with the consequences.

Has the phrase "tongue-in-cheek" ever been used in your presence, and if so, has its meaning ever been explained to you?

My mother was pissed when someone stole her magnetic ribbon. I told her that's what she gets for putting that crap on her car. She said, "Sushi, it said 'Spay and Neuter'". Now she wants to neuter whomever stole her damn ribbon.

So she just assumes that it was a man?

Actually, neuter refers to both spaying and castration, so it could be either.

Tell your mommy I found a likely suspect.

Looky there. It's my face. Being all red and stuff.

Is it common to say "spay" for females and "neuter" for males?

That's what has always bothered me about that saying, "have your pet spayed or neutered." I guess "neuter" is better to say than "castrated." Maybe it makes the male audience less likely to shudder when they hear it.

Keep back-tracking, sparky.

When I was in school, I had a bumper sticker on my pickup that read - "God created Ohio State. Michigan was subcontracted."

Now, on the trunk of my VW, I do have a "Support our Troops" ribbon. Dont care who doesnt like it - its how I feel.

Last, in the back side window of both my VW and my 911, I have a small "OSU Alumi" decal.

Just months after 9/11, every car in sight had magnetic ribbons on them. Plus, had an american flag, attached to the window.

Yeah, they became a fashion statement/trendy accessory instead of having any true meaning. Despicable.
