A car is like an extension of its owner; it can be adorned, bedazzled, and upgraded to look like a futuristic piece of art. If you're a 2000s kid and remember MTV's Pimp My Ride, you know what we're talking about. But sometimes, the only thing you need to do to give your car a little pizzazz is slap a little sticker on it.
In fact, 60% of Americans say they've had a bumper sticker on their car. A witty adhesive on your car's bumper can send all kinds of messages: it can demonstrate allegiance to a fandom, state your political views, or just show off your quirky sense of humor. Bored Panda has collected the funniest and most impressive bumper stickers in one place and we present them to you below!

Im Getting This Bumper Sticker
Only embarrassed? I'd be furious if my president was a total moron that throws worse temper tantrums than a toddler.
I'm furious that his orders are carried out. (His staff in his first term blocked a lot of that.)

I still can't believe, tho... How American can only pick between: -Orange man's cult of personality resulting in a nonsensical rollercoaster of good and bad. -An actual cult of "higher morality" that looks a bit TOO MUCH like the f*****t rulers in the classic movie "Demolition man" who have twisted the concepts of empathy and virtue signalled so hard that it becomes a disgusting form of control and forced compliance of anything not 99.9% aligned... As for THE Orange man. I like what he is doing against Hammas/Israel and the whole cult war in there. But that is about it, as fundamentally he has shown to be a sleezy lier about the whole "uncovering the child r**e island" Only way he could be excused is if these pedos are somehow so powerful that they would bring the entire USA with them if they fall... Still as president he has to find a way to get them and that is his failure. Could also be that he has been and always was part of that "league" of depraved f*****g individuals...
Anyone Know Where To Buy This One?
The type of people who call themselves His followers today are exactly the same type who gave Him over to the Romans to be crucified back then.
Yet my brain immediately focused on how crooked this sticker must be on the car. Either that or it's badly photoshopped. XD
A Message I Definitely Agree With
Why do i keep thinking ur pfp is scooby doo or shaggy related at a glance btw this is under #8 if u cant find it

Bumper stickers have an interesting history in advertising. Back in the day, before cars even had bumpers, people would advertise their businesses on horse-drawn carriages, stagecoaches, buggies, and the sides of their vehicles.
In 1927, Ford created the first automobile with a bumper, the Model A. Still, bumper stickers didn't become a thing. People would just tie a cardboard sign with ropes to the side of their car with a written message.
Bumper stickers came into the picture with the invention of the adhesive label. Ray Stanton Avery invented the first-ever stickers, and Forrest P. Gill then took it up a notch and put fluorescent paint on them to make "bumper strips" – the original bumper stickers.

I’ve always been puzzled by this. People wanna die on all these hills and I’m like folks there’s very few hills that you need to die on. Just do your duty, follow the rules, and get your s**t done. You will know if it’s important enough to die on

Gill used DayGlo pigments, which were primarily used for movie posters up until then. Then, during World War II, this high-visibility paint came in particularly handy for safety reasons. Later, artists like Frank Stella and Andy Warhol even used DayGlo in their artworks, but it soon began to be used for stickers that one could see on other cars while driving on the highways.
The first bumper stickers were a chance for people to boast about the places they had visited, as most of them were from roadside attractions. Similar to keychains, suitcase stickers, and tags today, bumper stickers from back in the day signaled that a person was an avid traveler.

This Bumper Sticker I Found On TikTok
A work colleague’s retirement plan; buy an old F150 spend AU$20 a day on petrol and drive around just waiting for inconsiderate motorists to cross his path. When he said this, $20 bought a lot of petrol 😂
As an owner of an old F-150, it always amazes me how stupidly daring people driving small, low weight vehicles are. Also, $20?! 🤣

In the '50s, bumper stickers also became a vehicle to express one's political views. They became especially popular during the presidential race between Dwight Eisenhower and Adlai Stevenson. Since then, it's likely that every presidential hopeful has used them for their campaign. In fact, in 1968, Alabama governor George Wallace had two million bumper stickers printed for his presidential campaign.
That's Brilliant

Love our possums! Sweeties who wouldn't hurt you. Sure, they'll put on a big display and everything, but their teeth are so weak they won't dare bite you. I love just picking them up to carry out of the road. They get this "oh... okay" reaction. Fun fact, their body temperature is so low, the Rabies virus can't survive in them.

After having been on a speed awareness course, I was driving away from the lights and wondered why everyone else was sticking to the speed limit like glue, I thought they can't all have recently been nicked for speeding. Then I saw the camera unit van on the overpass.
I don't understand why speeding is so rampant. They either need to enforce it or abolish it. Otherwise, it's just punishing people like me who are trying to do the right thing.
One of the few things in Florida is the new super speeders law. Anyone going over 50 miles over the speed limit and/or going over 100 miles per hour in a way that puts others in danger and gets ticked will have to appear at a mandatory court hearing. Fiines begin at $500 and/or 30 days in jail. It goes higher from then on.
Load More Replies...When the '60s came around and anti-Vietnam War sentiments had reached their peak, people began using bumper stickers as an activism tool. As the years went on, it wasn't just about political activism. People began putting stickers on their bumpers that expressed their support for things like reproductive rights, fighting climate change, conservationism, and many others.

You might think that a bumper sticker is just a piece of adhesive paper. But, with a certain message, it can arouse big feelings in other people. Researchers at the University of Cincinnati have found that people are more likely to honk at bad drivers who have political messages on their bumpers.

A Bumper Sticker I Saw In Utah
Yeah, I don't know how I feel about this one. My dreams tend to be pretty negative, so what's happening would be on par. Fewer zombies than normal, though...
Load More Replies...The researchers had volunteers drive around with three different stickers on their cars: "Proud Democrat," "Proud Republican," and "I Love My Dog." When the volunteers cut off other drivers without signaling, those from opposing parties were more likely to honk at the offending drivers. If it was a Democrat or an "I Love My Dog" owner cutting off a Democrat, they were less likely to honk. The experiment also worked accordingly with Republicans.

I"m guessing by the downvote someone thought I was directing this comment at the OP. The opposite is true. What I was trying to say is that the OP isn't so insecure that they need some obnoxious truck or sports car to boost their ego. It was a compliment to the OP and a jab at those that think they need a car shaped p***s extension. (edit: clarity)

If I see one more "baby on board" sticker I'll hurl. They gave them to us in the hospital after each of my kids were born (a $10k bumper sticker here in the states). And I was so sleep deprived and grumpy I almost told the nurse to shove that sticker up her b**t
Baby on board stickers were originally designed to show that the person in the car may become distracted and drive oddly due to there being kids on board. They weren't meant to warn other drivers to be careful because of the kids, but because of the parents antics
Load More Replies...Given how many idiots k**l their kids in hot cars, the "BABY ON BOARD" should be standard equipment on the dashboard.

I'm Not One For Car Stickers, But Someone's Gotta Tell Em
Oh I miss my Ford Ranger!!! We were made for each other. Stupid deer jumped in front of us and my Ranger took the brunt. DOA. Both truck and deer. RIP sweetheart! ☺ No, there was no time to avoid the deer. They're EVERYWHERE in America's Midwest. Repopulated by hunters decades ago, their only real predators are humans. They eat my husband's garden and lawn, no matter what we do to protect the plants. I guess we need to import cougars and bears.
That is on a Ford Maverick, I just got one (the truck not the sticker). Fun little truck, that would be normal sized in the mid 90s.

Does Anyone Have Any Clue What This Bumper Sticker Means?
From the poem "Wild Geese" by Mary Oliver, and it means you don't have to strive for perfection to be worthy. Instead, you should give yourself permission to love and connect with the simple things that bring you joy and comfort, whether that's a flower, food, a hug, or even just the vastness of the sky.
