Visual Clues


After many years of “study” I have concluded that any reasonable observer can tell a lot about the driver of a car by observing his/her bumper sticker(s).

Now here I am not talking about the actual message on the bumper sticker as often the message tells a lot about the driver of the car and this is obvious. Here I am talking about how the bumper sticker is placed on the bumper. 

Those of us who are of a conservative bent will take a modicum of time thinking about the placement of the bumper sticker, but this is often not the case with a liberal. Like I said my studying of this issue has led me to conclude that if the bumper sticker is on crooked, then the owner of the car is a liberal. The next time you see a bumper sticker, look at its placement on the bumper before concentrating on the message that the bumper sticker is conveying. Sure a lot of bumper stickers are neutral . . . “My son is a star pupil at xxxx elementary school.” while some are pretty obvious . . . “Can’t we all just along!” No matter the message, if it is on crooked, the owner of the car is a liberal.

Now there is an even better clue as to what kind of person is driving a car. You can take this one to the bank! If the driver of the car is wearing a face mask . . . whoa, Nellie! . . . that person is over the top! What person wears a face mask when driving alone in a car? What type of person wears a face mask while driving in a car accompanied by his/her son, daughter, husband, or good friend? While it might be possible that the person sitting in the passenger seat is a stranger (perhaps, a hitchhiker), the odds are much higher that the driver is a liberal Karen/Ken. (Furthermore, I would guess that some of these “I’ll wear my mask in my car to protect me from the coronavirus,” even wear their masks while inside their homes . . .  as “you can never be too safe.”)

Is there a correlation between the wearing of a mask while driving a car and the crookedness of the bumper sticker on that car? To be honest, I haven’t studied this extensively enough to be sure, but my prediction will be “yes!”
