Title: Car Stickers
Post by: Anna Woman von NRW on March 02, 2014, 08:54:05 PM
Something that occurred to me today while I was chucking assorted sacks of dog food/cat food/biscuits in the boot.....

Anyone seen one of these on the road? Until recently I averaged 25K miles a year in the uk and I've never seen another one have any of you?

Saw a car with a big back-window sticker saying WHAT THE FRACK in the typeface of a certain well-regarded sci-fi show... big respect to anyone who gets that joke...

Personally, I'd always wanted to have a Jaguar with a sticker on the back window that says 'my other car is a Skoda...'  ???

My NMA sticker lives in my 1991 Vauxhall Nova - somehow simultaneously very apt and horrifically incongruous, as my 16 year-old daughter pointed out.

So, they are out there on the road somewhere but no bugger has ever seen one other than on their own car!

As for Jalopy, well a chap I worked with used to call his Caterham thing a Jalopy and I just assumed that was what nerdy Car types called em'. Just looked it up in the dictionary and it means a crappy old banger  :-[ Oh......... I've had loads of Jalopys then  ;D

Hey I think that's excellent. Don't bother. You know cars are a real Number 1. thing that is fulfilled with loads of ready-made and pigeonholed imago & status with all those roles in society, your wealth and resources... But NMA sticker is for sure NOT a sign you'd expect to see in the glass of a brand new and big 55 000€ car.  ;D (or if so, then it might tell something interesting about the owner). I don't mean to sound so suspicious about eerr rich people, alpha survivors or 1st. class as it sounds, but I'd like to see the sticker rather in my car; Renault Kangoo which is a great, great choice for herberts, bums, hillbillies and shaggy freaks from forests and alleways.  ;) ;)

Happy Kangoo owners, reclaim the streets!!  :-*

There ya' go - small blue cars are the coolest  ;D

"herbets" oh man haven't heard that since I was a kid in the 70's - probably getting a well deserved clip round the ear from a neighbour!

Maybe we should collect here a cronoloque time list about all the NMA car stickers we see around the world? That would be cool.

...Herberts in 70's?  ??? They must have been in power then.  ;D

"herbets" for people in power? Nah, the word you're looking for is Wankers
