Million Dollar Idea
I had an idea for a new product that should be developed, and if someone could figure out how to make something like this, that person would make a million dollars. I've noticed that a lot of times, I'll be driving down the road or I'll be in a parking lot, and I'll see a stupid-ass right-wing bumper sticker, and I think, "Oh, I've just GOT to respond to THAT nonsense!" But that's the thing about bumper stickers. You CAN'T respond to it OR the person who is polluting the world with its nonsense. But what if you could?
I think someone ought to invent a "bumper sticker responder" that would allow you to give a response to bumper stickers that are obviously DYING for a response. For example, today I saw a car with the "Don't Tread On Me" sticker, the "I'll keep my guns, freedom, and money...You can keep the CHANGE" sticker, and one that I would have LOVED to respond to. It had a picture of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and it said, "America was founded by right-wing extremists." Oh, the things I could have said in response to that (most of them along the lines of, "Didn't study your History very much when you were in school, did you?")
So if there's anyone out there who could figure out a way to "post responses" to bumper stickers, you could make millions. I had an idea of a bumper sticker that you could put on the back of your own car that could change text, so you could type in your response, it would show it, and then you could get in front of the other driver and "respond." But ideally, it would be something that the person with the sticker would carry along WITH the sticker they have so OTHER PEOPLE could see it. If there were a way to do this without resorting to vandalism, I would be all for it.
Any ideas?

Yeah I have an idea, how about being a mature responsible adult, and realize that people are going to have different opinions.
These people let a bumper sticker ruin their entire day, and they wonder why we don't want them in power.

A million dollars? What about windfall-profit taxes, health insurance, pensions, retirement benefits, and equal-opportunity hiring for the people that produce your product?
Decadent, greedy capitalist.

They already have such signs. Problem is, conservatives won't buy them and you DUmmies don't have enough money...So there.

Plus the extra drag would cut the range of their prius in half.

Umm, so is he talking about an automated sticker that would have to be hooked up to the electrical system and filled with responses to what? 5 billion bumper sticker slogans out there? what if it malfunctions? what if someone has say a PETA bumper sticker and you want to flash a thumbs up bumper sticker and it malfunctions and a "cat the other white meat" bumper sticker shows up?

But that's the thing about bumper stickers. You CAN'T respond to it OR the person...
It's called a piece of paper under their wiper blade. If you're dying for a response leave your email address too.
Paper and a pencil, what a novel idea.

Most DUmmies just flip the bird and then make up a bouncy tale.

Bingo. High 5.

That's gotta be a Prius.

I'm pretty certain it is. Just thing of those stickers causing drag and reducing it's MPG.

It would be a heluva RPG target, too.

RPG sure. Not enough metal or heat in the thing to give enough signature for a modern weapon.

5. Paint gun
you might be able to shoot it and cover it with paint.
This is one of the stupidest ideas I've ever seen from the DUmp, and they come up with some real doozies.
Some DUmmies suggest a $60 portable LED scroller, you can input your message into a laptop in your car, I guess. All doing so while tooling down the highway at 75 MPH. That should end well.
Lurkers, aren't you ever embarrassed by your fellow DUmmies?

What is it about low IQ people and bumper stickers?

They're important people. Without them, bumper stickers, tattoos, electric cars, and the democrat party could not exist.

Mugsaway, that's what the DUmmie had in mind. You type your stunning rejoinder to his freeper bumpersticker, roar ahead, pull in front of him, and go "SEE? See my witty reparte???"
I see it's retailing for $34.95, been slashed a couple times in price. No million dollars for the DUmmie.

I got stuck behind a real, live DUmmy today. Stupid car? Check (Toyota Scion) Ridiculous bumper stickers? Check DUmmy? Definitely.
