On the Nature of Family Car Stickers
Posted: 24 Jul 2012, 22:08
I have to make a confession. You know those cutsey car stickers that people have that go on the rear window that display their current family in some whimsical manner? I hate those.
These things
I can't explain where the hate comes from, but I do remember that the first time I saw those stickers, I was annoyed. I get the same way whenever I see those “My child is on the honor roll at Whatever High.” There's just something about them that rubs me entirely the wrong way.
Anyways, back to the cutesy family stuff and how much I hate them. I really do hate them. A lot. They feel incredibly fake and slapped on to the family car to somehow prove that their family is the best family ever.
Upon seeing the stickers one day, I cringed (which is normal) but I suddenly a fantastic idea came to my mind. The idea made my giggle which is typically a good sign that I have stumbled upon something great. My brain told me that I should make my own family stickers.
So I did. And now I present you my far more accurate version of these family car stickers.
Seeing how 50% of all marriages end in divorce and broken families, let's at least be honest about the whole family thing. Also, family members die and so do pets. So when Tommy accidentally sets the clothes dryer to extra tumble and places the family cat, Boots, inside, you can easily display to the world whenever you get the cat to fill the void Boots left.
Perks: Easily removed so that when Daddy moves on to Mommy #3, reorganization is quick and easy.
