YANBU but it is very funny to attach them to male friends cars, especially when they work in a very macho environment and don't notice them for a couple of days ... 2 years on, one is still known as 'lashes'

they're just a bit of fun surely. Wouldn't the world be boring if nobody did anything fun just in case other people thought it was ridiculous.

I've bought some to put on Dh's car as an April Fools joke Grin

He won't notice, sets off in the dark.

I'm going to see if there's any more stupid stuff I could do like a princess sticker or 'I like it hard' sticker

I am easily amoosed Hmm

I'm a right humourless old crone when it comes to cars. Giving them "cute" Hmm names, eyelashes, soft toys on the parcel shelf, 'amusing' stickers especially when they obscure a window...come the revolution, anyone who indulges in any of these things will be made to walk everywhere. In the rain. With flip flops on. And no umbrella.

IT's really hard to imagine someone going to Halford's, picking them up, queueing with them, paying for them, taking them out, taking them home, cutting open the packaging, and fitting them, and standing back and taking a look, without at some point thinking "this is really not that funny, is it?"

Yes, this!

I quite like them! Wouldn't have them on my car, but it makes me smile when I see other peoples.

MoominIsWaitingToMeetHerMiniMe · 20/03/2014 16:29

This is one of those things I can't get myself worked up about. I tried, I really did - I saw a car with eyelashes and I tried so hard to be angry, I think I pulled something I was straining so hard.... but nope. Can't find the anger.

ClownsLeftJokersRight · 20/03/2014 16:29

I also think toys and dressing up and names for cars is insane.

I wonder why stop at eyelashes. Why not have HD eyebrows or comedy breasts (ala Blackadder) or a giant wig on the roof, or even a spray car-tanGrin

"even a spray car-tan"

Er, isn't that just a respray? Grin

Cars alway have names and you need to speak to them nicely.

Not always easy when they drop freezing water on you from their interior light and their SAT nave insists your in France when you're lost in the Cheltenham one way system.
