VANITY: folks tying tea bags to rear view mirrors?

I searched the site before posting this: are folks tying tea bags to rear-view mirrors? Just tied two on my SUV (separated by my tree air-freshener, that is)

Yes, it hangs with my DisneyWorld "Pirates of the Carribean" antenna ball.

Many times I have wanted to strangle the person in the car ahead of me who has Chrystal's hanging from their mirror. When the sun hits them it makes a blinding flash to the eyes of the person in the car behind.

If a cop wants to stop you, he will find a reason. Something hanging from the mirror would serve that purpose quite well.
If that dangler happens to make a political statement that the cop doesn’t agree with, especially now that DHS has branded all of us as subversives, a tea bag would be a perfect excuse.

The TEA parties are a solid start (there were about 5,000 in Olympia, WA, where the wife and I were). But we, the people, have to follow up by having Push Back Until events later this year, early next year, and for as long as we have to: http://pushbackuntil.com.
It will not be easy, but how interested are we in saving our country from an irresponsible Congress? If we, the people, do nothing, our country is finished.
Be in D.C. to Push Back Until!

Atlas Shrugged - Page 404
"There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone? But just pass the kind of laws that can neither be observed, nor enforced, nor objectively interpreted - and you create a nation of lawbreakers - then you cash in on guilt. Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with."

You can also drape one out of your gas tank or tie it to your (non-retractable) antennae

The sweet aroma of Earl Grey could be a definite distraction.

Too bad you don’t hang a tea bag and fight the citation, make the news, and become famous. Another thought, you would be surprised by the number, of officers, that would not “see” the tea bag smile and drive on with a smile on their face.

You’ve got it ... Those incredible Atlas Shrugged lines are where my thought came from.
Thank you ...
To: gogulls
I got the tea bag boxes out of the pantry, dumped the bags into a zip lock and cut out the big tea bags images in the cardboard...taped one to the top of my windshield where the view is already blocked by the RVM and then one at the top of the back window...Your states may vary but in mine, as long as you have a left and right outside rvm, there is no restrictions on blocking the view of the back window.
I've already had a few honks and waves.

That’s a good idea, then maybe some of the cowboys around here will take the bull testicles off. That’s just gross.

I don't want to minimize the hassle of getting a ticket, but isn't it an overbearing government whether it be high federal taxes or whether it be silly local laws, that we need to change?
A tea bag, as puny as it is, is not a hazard when it hangs from the rvm. Hang the sucker.

Good idea. And they will serve as a nice air freshener all by themselves.

That's a good law IMO. I've seen cars with so much crap hanging I don't see how they could see to drive.So...because some people hang a lot of crap from their mirror, we need a law that also punishes people who hang items that don't obstruct the view at all?

I’m using Raspberry tea bags..nice scent in the truck..
