Saw a B/C sticker on a Prius today
Made me choke on my diet coke. What's the world coming to!? This was after I admired the anti * grafiti that has appeared on the local gas pumps. Funny how ppl don't just love him at $3/gal gas, ya know? But the Prius lady, I'm still trying to figure that one out. :shrug:

2. My boss has a VW Beetle with a "W" sticker on it.
He's one of the most virulent Shrub supporters in the world.

Having said that, he is kind, funny, friendly, and a really good boss. Some people...........

7. It is a new beetle or one of the new ones.
Because the new ones were built for the fucking yuppies and you wouldn't catch me dead in one of those damn things. Now a Jetta or Passat. . .

11. Male driving the new bug?
I see mostly females driving those. Most men drive Jettas.

18. Beetles were first made by Nazi Germany
From http://people.westminstercollege.edu/staff/bknorr/html/history2.htm

Later in 1933, Adolf Hitler met with Ferdinand Porsche to discuss Hitler's idea of a volkswagen. Hitler proposed a people's car that could carry 5 people, cruise up to 62mph, return 33mpg, and cost only 1000 Reich Marks. This was an opportunity for Porsche to push his idea of a small car foward, as was it to help Hitler get a real people's car for the citizens of Germany.


-snip-

I myself never understood the appeal of those little sewing-machine-engine ugly fuckers.

13. How odd
I would estimate that about 95% of the B/C stickers I see around Philly are on SUVs or pick-up trucks (or Hummers!). It's very rare to see one on an economy car.

In a Trader Joe's parking lot!! :crazy:

33. are you 100% sure it was Bush Cheney?
I've seen several surprises that I thought were Bush/Cheney, but when you look closer it was really like "Bush/Orwell" or "Bush/Cheney 4 more wars"

34. Was it ironic?
I ask because I used to have a friend that wore his ironic "D.A.R.E. To Keep Kids of Drugs" t-shirt even in the midst of a pot-fueled haze.
