Title: Strange car or truck messages
Post by: Robert Eric on Sat 01/05/2004 13:52:26
I was on my way to the supermarket this morning, and on the lane that takes you to 101 west, a truck drove past me that said on the side, "North east building: Our erections last longer."

Anyone else see anything like this?

I'd assume it's a construction company.

There are some businesses around my college town with funny names. Dick's Plumbing, Roofies (they put shingles on), and Christie's Toybox (oh, but that one isn't ironic, because it really is a sex shop).

Not a car or truck message but the other day I saw a sign that said DIVERSION TURN RIGHT and a big arrow pointing left...

"P. Christopher & Son, builders.
(and then the phone number)
When you call, ask for Phil, as John's only 4"

I don't rememeber the exact names, but I do remember the 'joke'.

Bumper Sticker:


How am I driving?  Call 1-800 EAT-SHIT

Saw it outside Taco Bell

I think I saw "Shit happens" on a bumper sticker once. I thought it was clever.

Not as clever as "Where's the beef?"


Heh.. Where's the beef...

Everyone's probably seen this one already:

I love that one..

I can't remember any ones I've seen.. I have seen purple license plate borders before.. And if you don't know what that means, it's sort of a universal signal of a gay person.. Sorta like the quilts and the udnerground railroad..

In that case, wouldn't anything girly be a "universal sign for a gay?" I mean, you won't see most straight guys driving around with a flower vase in their windshield or a pink license plate border either.

What about gay women. What are the rules about what they can have on thier cars? Or is it a double standard kind of thing?

I think they hang a green handkerchief from the exhaust pipe.
Don't tell anyone I told you that though.

Why would anyone bother. I mean who really needs to know whether someone is gay, or christian etc. from looking at their car?

My friend has one of those Jesus fish and instead of Jesus it says Pegan. I thought it was funny.

I don't know, around here it's a rainbow sticker on their car or something.  I thought the rainbow was the universal sign for a gay person.

One of my friends in high school turned his Jesus fish upside down so the cross was sacrilegious (one of those that's just a fish with a cross for an eye). Nobody ever noticed it, so he put paper-clip antlers on it. Yeah, not horns.. I don't know why, it was funny at the time though.

I can't think of any witty car messages I've seen lately but what pisses me off is people that get really bad wanky personalised number plates.

One I saw was on some try hards car, the sad thing is he probably thought he was living this life for real.

and one of my friends (that's a dickhead) tried to get this numberplate but it wasn't allowed.

I don't know about funny signs, but you should see the trucks here. This is the norm. All trucks look like this. Some people may find this looking nice, but then they must be nuts. Also, if the "this-type-of-car-means-the-owner-is-gay" rule was right, then all of these guys would be gay, which is not likely ;D.

My license plate is a vanity plate, reading "BACKOFF".  I wanted "F*CKOFF", but they wouldn't do it.

Well, there was a truck with big, bolded letters on it that read on its side, "EJACULATE".

And it was in a parking lot of a company named Siemens.

I've seen cars with the Jesus-fish sticker, only with LEGS and saying DARWIN instead of Jesus.Ã,  8)

And I guess it's not a car or so, but funny as hell:
Here in Sweden there is a company called Locum that during christmas 2001 wanted to show how caring they were for nature, by not sending any xmas cards, thus saving trees. Instead they put in an ad in a national newspaper wishing their customers happy holidays. To even more show their warmth and love for those poor trees, they exchanged the o in locum for a heart giving this rather unwanted result...

Well there's a fishing and hunting shop in my town called "Steve's Tackle". You can't make stuff like that up.

I love the locum ad. That is just so stupid, it's great!

I've seen a couple of good bumper stickers in my time... here are the most memorable:

"Very funny, Scotty. Now beam down my clothes."
"Where there's a will, I want to be in it"
"If you can read this, I can slam on my brakes and sue you!"
