Bumper sticker I have been seeing around Houston...
Edited on Sat Jul-17-04 05:52 PM by Lisa0825
It says "Marriage is" and then has the figure for a man and the plus sign (+) and then the figure of a woman.. the real plain ones, like you see on bathroom signs. I have seen three of them in the past week. It pisses me off, and I always make a point to pull ahead so they can see my blue and gold HRC sticker (along with all my other subversive stickers).

Well, today, I saw a lady on I-45, just north of Texas City with that stoopid sticker. I pulled ahead, and looked her way, but she wasn't looking. Well, about 5 minutes later, she comes SPEEDING up behind me, get in the left lane, looks over at me, shaking her finger at me, and obviously ranting some bullshit I should be glad I couldn't hear!!!LOL!!! I stuck my tongue out at her, and then winked, smiled, and blew a kiss. She just kept on ranting in her state of rage.


Of course I hate to see people like her, but a little part of me felt good that my existence and beliefs might have ruined her day:-)


Have y'all see these stickers around too, or is this a new or local thing?

2. yeah, I saw one in Plano
I always scratch the side of my face with my middle finger - the poor thangs are never quite sure if they are getting the finger or not. Wouldn't want to CONFUSE them, would I???? :D

10. I always just laugh and point
That pisses them off good. Hopefully after awhile they'll realize that it's not healthy to get angry at people who are laughing. :)

5. Remember the last scene in "Easy Rider?"
Don't underestimate freeper crazies. Especially in Texas. All you have to run into is one rw nut with a shotgun.

Don't taunt them, ignore them, for your own safety. And please, please try to grasp the fact that these people will kill you in the name of God, country and Bush.

7. They're from the 700 Club

They're free, so you could get Pat to send you a bunch and cut them up such that they wind up being man + man and woman + woman. I'll add the link to my earlier post on this on edit.

Edit: See? http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=105&topic_id=1199499

11. Basic formula

+ = . No 's need apply!

God said this; the rest of you should just shut up and obey.
If God comes up with any variations on this formula, He'll let you know thru Jerry Fallen, His Chosen Mouthpiece

13. If I were more evil
I would draw additional women on the sticker... after all, that's what biblical marriage was.

But that would be vandalism, and would therefore be wrong. :(

14. I've seen them in Dallas, they are STUPID
yeah marriage is something only men and women can have. How do they explain all the long term gay and lesbian relationships that have been going on longer than a lot of hetero marriages?

In TX we have common law marriages. If it applied to gays or lesbians there'd be a hell of a lot of them in common law marriages.

Those are people with a SERIOUS stick up their ass. It would hurt too much to pull it out, I guess, so they leave it there.
