Oh, crap. Almost forgot to tell you...

I was driving on the "beltline" in Madison, and I came upon a car with a "Clinton 16" bumper sticker. Well, I had actually seen my first "Bernie 2016" bumper sticker a few days previous.

I was a bit annoyed (Being one of those Clinton "haters" ) so I got up closer. To my complete surprise - upon further review - it actually said "Carson 16". Now that blew my mind.

I absolutely had to pull up next to this car just to look at this loon. I pulled up, and it was a 60 year old something white guy. He looked at me and I looked into an abyss which will forever be seared into my brain. He was what we politely refer to as a "low information voter". Bless his heart.

1. You should always make the polite assumption that ...

maybe it's not his car.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

3. Well, that would kind of take all the fun out, don't you think?

[darkangel218]

2. Oh, my!

He looked at me and I looked into an abyss

this part literally made me LMAO!!

K&R!

[Paulie]

4. Sure it wasn't Cthulhu 2016?

Looks just like Carson

5. In NE for a few days; saw several "Bernie" bumper stickers, none for Hillary.

7. I have 3 different Bernie magnetics on my car sides

I have 2 Bernie bumper stickers, but I need to get out there and put one on. It will Happen! Muc sooner than later!

13. Hillary stickers are reserved for private jets & Maseratis!

20. Nah, not at all.

You just have to pay her a commission before you are allowed to have her name on your vehicle.

6. When you stare into the abyss

The abyss stares into you.

You might have been infected, can you still do equations using the quadratic function? Just to be safe watch 3 episodes of Cosmos (you can get it on netflex) or both the Daily Show and the Nightly Show with a chaser of the Late Show.

In case of extreme exposure, watch u-tubed saves of Mock the Week for maximum political irreverence.

9. The zombie-eyed thousand yard stare?

I've seen that at poker tables in Vegas when heading out to go to CES. Spooky, ain't it?

[Doctor_J]

12. I saw one of those today

Some really twisted people out there

[Nay]

19. I saw TWO Carson/16 bumper stickers before I saw one Bernie one. I'm

telling you, stupid is still winning.

[LWolf]

21. I've seen a Carson sticker

and a Trump sticker in my area.

Only one each, and nothing else.

I don't put stickers on my car, which is visible from my classroom window. I do my best to separate my classroom and students from my personal politics.

If I did, though, it would be this:



or this:

22. Last week I saw my first Trump bumper sticker.

I couldn't stop laughing.

[ecstatic]

23. It's odd that you'd be annoyed by the idea of a

Democratic bumper sticker, even if it's not your candidate.

[Elmer S. E. Dump]

24. I don't find it "odd" in the least.

Why do you say that?
