to have an irrational hatred of drivers who

[thederkinsdame]

have stickers on their car saying 'powered by fairydust'?
It is not cute, it is not ironic, it is not even amusing. It is baffling and slightly odd that a grown woman would choose to drive round in a car that looks like a four year old has chosen to modify it.

They drive me crazy but when im stuck in traffic it gives me more to do than add up how many numbers on my dashboard add up to!!

booja

YOu can get the brakeing ones, they sold them at a gig apparently. But I haven't been able to find one online.

Some of these are ace.

Our children on board sign works really well. As soon as people get close enough to read it they actually back off. I've seen this loads of times recently, since having it.

Driver comes up quite fast, right on the bumper and then suddenly goes back to the two second spot.

It's incredible. So I'm keeping it.

You can design your own at Zazzle.com.

My lovely grandad (sadly no longer with us) used to have a big Tigger cuddly toy on his parcel shelf so that he would recognise his car. So those of you being a little snide about such things should know that some people have genuine reasons.

I love this thread! someone used the word Twunts which is just Fab.

I actually have a bumpersticker..... it says "So many Christians ...... So few Lions"

it really tickled me.

I also see a car with "Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons - for you are crunchy and good with ketchup" ..... as with all these things, funny at first but wearing when you see it every day!

Finally I've seen a picture of a drain cleaning van "F.Greir Drainage Services - Your Shit is my bread and butter" - quality

DH thought the Christian fish was actually a surfer dude symbol and couldn't understand why so many staid, middle aged people were so keen on surfing.

champagneforLunch here the dinosaur eating fish one! That's cool!

I have the Darwin one.

Bright, it's a bit of a product of my weird Aspergersy brain, but it says what I would say if I got out the car and explained to people why I didn't like them up my backside.

'Children in car - please don't drive too close, just overtake if you need to'

It takes a close look but once they have read it they do actually fuck off back to where they should be.

It might not stop the proper twunts but it helps when the person behind just doesn't realise how close they are. Seriously about once a day I see it happen. I always think 'blardy sign isn't working!' then a few seconds later the person has backed off!

Either it works or it encourages people to drive way too close just to read it.

ahem

Dueling, LOVE your link. Dh chortled as he looked over my shoulder and is demanding I send him the link. (He wants the Cthulhu one.)

I've seen the 'ex-husband in the boot' one which did make me smile. And 'my other vehicle's a broomstick'.

I have a real dislike the "mum's taxi" and equally "dad's taxi" ones.. FFS.

Oh my god, I got hauled over the coals by the MN massive the other day for saying that I hated a VW round the corner from me that had a 'powered by fairy love' sticker in the back. I was accused of being anti-pagan

But no, YANBU.

Worst one I ever saw read:

I love my husband and kids.

I should think you do you stupid, sad bitch why do you feel the need to let the rest of the world know?

I know someone on a car forum who has a signature on the frum thats the "powered by fairy dust" sticker but shes edited it to say "powered by petrol - what else?!"

:oAvrilHeytch:o
princesses have such a bad record in car accidents

Its almost worth buying some

I tunnels

stickers to put underneath.:)

I have an irrational hatred of Baby on Board signs. Why? Why do they exist? Surely people don't really think reckless drivers will suddenly modify their behaviour when seeing a car sticker? Or are the owners of the baby on board signs just so happy that they have managed to reproduce that they wish to advertise the fact? Overly harsh? Probably . Apologies to anyone who has one on their car, I know plenty of lovely people who do. I just don't understand why they exist!

In response to the
"Baby on Board" stickers my friend purchased a "Baby Im Bored" sticker.

Years ago my Ma had a 'Bats need Friends' sticker upside down on the back windscreen. My sister put the 'give blood' sticker underneath it.

It used to get sniggers, but the car had to go when it was featured on Esther Rantzen!

I saw "Car Sticker Rage - your hate phrase " on Discussions of the Day, and clicked with haste to add "has anyone seen those Powered by Fairydust ones?"

< disappointed >

Want2bsupermum LOL at "A guy I worked for had a Harvard sticker in the back windscreen of his car. The only problem was that he didn't go to Harvard and I knew because I saw his resume and did his education check when he was hired."

It reminds me of the Goon Show.

Character X: That looks like a Cambridge Tie you're wearing!
Eccles: Urr . . . yeah
Character X: What were YOU doing at Cambridge?
Eccles: Urr . . . Buying a tie.

zerozero - I've seen:

How's my driving?

Call 0800 Eat shit.

variation on the theme!

In California, on one of those humungous people carrier / van things with blacked out windows and bling everywhere
"Eco-Jedi"
Actually I'm lying. It was not a sticker, it was the license plate!
