This one is a little bit difficult to read, as the photo was taken with my camera phone, through the front windscreen of the car, but it says "I'm polluting your air". How refreshingly honest, I thought to myself. A 4wd driver who publicly acknowledges the impact they're having on the environment. Then I noticed the bottom line of the sticker, in smaller print, http://www.nosuv.org/ which reminded me of a plan some friends and I had years ago of having anti-4wd stickers printed up. We planned to have them printed on the stickiest of sticky, lurid coloured paper using the most powerful glues known to humanity, and then we were going to do 'missions' under cover of darkness to sticker 4wd vehicles. We had some fantastic slogans. If only I could remember them ... But, how wonderful that the subject 4wd driver obviously hadn't noticed the sticker by the time I took the photo. I wonder how long it had been there ?
I couldn't help but warm to the owner of these bumper stickers, reminding me of a short documentary film I saw last year called 'Rare Chicken Rescue' about a man suffering depression whose one passion in life is finding and caring for exotic chickens.
In case you can't read the stickers in the picture, the chook related ones read as follows (from left to right):
DUCK in & have a GANDER, We'll talk CHOOK! http://www.backyardpoultry.com/
Backyard Poultry, More than just a hobby, http://www.backyardpoultry.com/
SHIT HAPPENS, My chooks make it useful! (accompanied by a cartoon of a chook ... er, shitting)Chook MAGNET, http://www.backyardpoultry.com/
DON'T FOLLOW ME, I'm going to a chook show!
I can report that our car currently boasts two bumper stickers, one rather subtle white text on a clear background for FBI fm and the second, a rather less subtle black bumper sticker with white graphics and text promoting Sea Shepherd. MBH recently tried to make the addition of a Collingwood 'Side by Side' Member 2009 sticker. I'm not ashamed to admit I fake cried to avoid that one.
