Gummy Bear Heaven ... It's where I go when the world is too mean.

I saw my first "So Ill" sticker a couple weeks ago. Is this a "thing" now?

I found a site selling stickers and apparel and every single "model" looked like a huge tool.

You know, that's what I thought until I attempted to talk to a dude rocking one of those coming through the store the other night (I'm up in northern IL outside Chicago right now and was looking to just shoot the poo poo with another dude from southern IL, shoot me) and apparently it's actually just a full state thing, which is even worse.

I don't know why you bothered to tell him that when the transformers badge was clearly the point of no return.

Nah, it's manual at least. He puts that loving badge on everything he owns, including his Lexus hybrid suv.

gently caress I should have taken your money.

His previous 'sports car' as he calls it was a ralliart Lancer with 350k on it. Also covered in transformer badges.

To be fair unmolested they're one hell of a lot cooler looking than most new cars on the roads... If stacking cash to piss away on 1-1 online jerk off instruction sessions with a busty redhead wearing latex gear is wrong then I don't want to be right.

Saw a car today on Arran with a sign saying "TOURIST DRIVER PLEASE HAVE PATIENCE" in the rear window. Oh please gently caress off you entitled old prick, if you think being a tourist is reason to drive poorly and inconvenience people going about their working day.

Edit: Just to clarify I don't have a problem with tourists or cautious drivers, just the attitude of "Hey Charles, we are going to be driving our big SUV down little country roads gawping at the scenery, shall we pull over and enjoy the scenery while the faster cars pass?" "Don't be silly Phyllis, just stick a sign in the window dear, I'm sure the local bumpkins will understand we are important folks from the civilised south, if they can read that is"

....maybe I'm reading too much into this.

To be fair, some locales have some really hosed up road patterns. Colorado is lousy with merge lanes where most states would expect drivers to wait for sufficient gaps. It's a pretty decent idea but it takes a little bit to get used to be flow.

Oh yeah I agree, driving on the right fucks me up for the first day when I go on holiday (Picking up a hire car in Manhattan was slightly unnerving!) but I still manage to drive properly 99% of the time, it just takes more brain power. But If you are going to be so bad you need a sign on the back your car maybe you shouldn't drive.

The country sticker hasn't been required for ages. In the EU the country code is part of the license plate since 1990, and afaik it was never a requirement in the US?

Stance is extra dumb when some of your potholes have roads on them. The proud people of Azerbaijan have come up with a new way to make your car look dumb while still being able to hit potholes.
