Bumper stickers have been around forever, but they were at their peak in the 80’s and 90’s. Here are some of my favorites:
Like “Imagine whirled peas” this snarky little gem skewers a popular quote.
“Jesus is coming back” stickers were everywhere for a while. I snorted an entire venti latte the first time I saw this one.
Don’t know why I like this one, I just do. Uh-oh, gotta go, they’re here!
I watched half a dozen truckers crane their necks to peer down into this car before I noticed the bumper sticker.
I don’t know who came up with this one, but I’m pretty sure it was a mom or a dad.
“Beam me up, Scotty!” stickers were ubiquitous in the 80’s, so my old comedy act Mitch & Allen came up with this phrase. It was such a hit that dozens of other sticker makers began duplicating it. Ah, well, plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery, right? Even now, 30 years later, Googling the phrase produces over a million results.
Haha, the first one. LOL! <3
This one’s kind of mean-spirited but I’ve never forgotten it: “I may be fat but you are ugly and I can lose weight” (made my Dad laugh anyway)
One I planned to have made when I commuted to work: “it’s not my fault you’re late so please back off & don’t tailgate”
Funny. Sounds like a variation on the old line (sometimes attributed to Winston Churchill), “I may be drunk, but I will be sober in the morning, whereas you will still be ugly.” I like your idea too!
I got my degree in Art . . . Would you like fries with your order.
Love it.
the first one:-)
Put these on licensce plate frames.
I am doing what I’d rather be doing.

World’s Largest Suitcase
As I lived in, then traveled in for about three years.
A parody on “no nukes” and “save the whales’ : “Nuke the whales.”
“My other car is a broom,” but I also liked, “Friends don’t let friends… vote Republican.”
“Who are all these kids and why are they calling me Mom?” 😂
The most common bumper sticker I see at the moment is “Mom’s Taxi Service” but my favourite is “Do you follow Jesus this closely?” I’m yet to see this but I might get one. Haha 😂
Haven’t seen the latter. I like it!
When I worked as a contractor for the government, we had a deaf lady in another department who was an inspiration to me. And the bumper sticker on her bright blue pickup said, “Don’t pray for a lighter load. Ask for a stronger back.” (What a testimony.)
It’s not a bumper sticker, but I have written on the back passenger side window of my dented up, rusted out, 15-year-old van, “Don’t laugh. My treasure is in Heaven.” A silver Sharpie did the trick!
Love ’em both, Paula!
How about this one, “I HATE BUMPER STICKERS”
Terrific!
I had one in my back window of my pickup truck,
“Lay Down, I Think I Love You”
Did you have a silhouette of a naked cowboy on your mudflaps? ;>)
When a dear friend drove a truck for a propane company I couldn’t resist making her a bumper sticker warning: “If you pass me you’ll be passing gas.”
Perfect!
“Look busy” bwahahaha!
Gotta love them. I did see one that said, “I break for…ah s**** no breaks.” (Sorry, but that was humor in action).
My husband wants to get one that says “We’re spending our kids inheritance.” I have to remind him of the one “Be nice to your kids, they’ll be choosing your nursing home.”
