Yesterday I parked at a Starbucks and while walking to the place noticed a car (no, it was not a Prius) with the stupidest bumper sticker ever. Actually it had two: The first was that COEXIST one which is also stupid. Because the problems we have today aren't because of Christians fighting with Muslims fighting with Jews fighting with Buddhists fighting with Shintos fighting with Zoroastrians fighting with athiests. The problem is freaking Muslims and left-wing socialist-Marxist secular-"progressive" athiests.
But I digress. The other bumper sticker was the real stupid one. It said, "It wouldn't kill you to learn Spanish."
???
Discuss.
Now that’s funny !
I walked past a group of short dark gentlemen at a construction site in my neighborhood last week, a quick “Hola, La Migra”, really gets a reaction.
I wonder why there’s a little blue postage stamp on the corner of that bacon strip.
LOL! Yup, done that too! I just yell “Migra!! Too much. :-)
It wouldn't kill us to pay for all their medical care, schooling, and incarcerations, either. But it's not very freaking fair, either, is it?
I speak 3+ languages already. Just not Spanish.
Note the "Coexist" along with the sticker mocking Christians for not believing in evolution.

Speaking of bumper stickers, the DNC had a beaut in 2008, “Had enough, Vote Democrat”, I’d love to have one of those now and put one next to it. “Not Stupid enough, Do it Again”
LOL. Good one that I have to remember. We had a very annoying repeat caller who just liked to bug us. We got a new service that has a generic message. The next time she called, I answered with: "Vee gates" - no reply - "sprechin sie Deutsch?" Click. That was the last call we had from her.
“Puerto Ricans speak it. How tough could it possibly be??”
Woman in the parking garage I use has a “Voldemort Votes Republican” bumpersticker.
I’ve had one, and only one, conversation with here. And it was about the bumpersticker. She noticed me chuckle about it and asked whether I liked it. I told her something along the lines of “Sure. Especially since its the Dems that allow illegal immigrants like Voldemort TO vote”.
She just glares at me these days ...
There’s another bumpersticker in my garage I like too, but admit that it comes out at about an 8.5 on the William Shatner “Get a Life” scale. “Phasers Don’t Kill People; Our Klingon Security Officer Kills People”.

Funniest post of the day.
It seems in the past ten years my wife and I have seen an unusual amount of Suburus frequently plastered with leftist slogans. I remarked on this one time, and my wife seemed surprised. So now every time we pass a Suburu without any leftist decals, she says “see, they don’t all have decals on them!” ...as if she showed me. I still guffaw loudly when we pass one with the requisite “save the earth/ whales/trees/whatever” signs covering their vehicle.
Well, I laugh at a few of my Brit in-laws, because some of them do not speak very clearly. Though in general, my Brit in-laws speak better English than we do. The "Received Pronunciation" or Tony Blair-type English is actually spoken by very few English. Most have an accent related to the area where they grew up. And every large English city or area has a different accent. Somebody speaking with the RP or "posh accent" is looked at as someone trying to put on airs. My wife comes from the Norwich area, and she still uses a few words that would not be called proper English. Of which I never forget to remind her. Naturally, she never fails to snicker at some of my Wisconsinisms.
Thanks
I live in the bay area if i put a IMPEACH OBAMA sticker on my truck it would have been keyed by now..
Doncha love those tolerant liberals..:>)
I gotta bigger one than you ..see my post 3.:>)
Not far from where I live, I saw a bumpersticker (BO Shepherd Fairey style) in sepia tones, with "History" (not Hope) as the legend.
History. As in, "You're history, dude...."
Totally true. I dated a Brit who was from Birmingham. She went to finishing schools where she acquired her BBC accent(Which I found very sexy, BTW). But when we visited her family I could barely understand them.
Auch ich bin der deutschen Sprache mächtig. Aber was sagte schon Lenin? "Vertrauen ist gut, Kontrolle ist besser!" Jedenfalls müßten Sie schon zugeben, daß es mit Ihrer tadellosen Rechtschreibung nicht weit her ist.
Dennoch: Ich ziehe den Hut in Ehrfurcht vor Ihrer Wortgewalt, Ihrer Geistesklarheit in einer kitzligen Lage bzw. Ihrem Einfallsreichtum!
Hochachtungsvoll, Ihr ergebener Diener
