As far as visual cues for attracting the opposite sex go, this is like the anti-tramp stamp.

  • RahRahRecords

    my wife says this would be her if I died.

    • Please make sure you outlive her.

  • Reminds me of the "kill art" on WW II fighters.

    • facelvega

      That's what I was thinking. One girl and cat = barf. One girl and fourteen cats = extremely dangerous driver.

    • Which suggests an entirely different meaning for this montage if it were to be placed on the driver's side fender… a meaning for which they have laws, any way you decide to approach it.

      • Yes,when I see these stickers on other vehicles I assume they are challenging me.

        • You've got an impressive portfolio on your photo site. I particularly like the color saturation, the cars really pop. The one nit I have to pick is that you have captioned a row of Austin Healeys as "Morgans". A better caption would be "Big Healeys".

        • mr. mzs zsm msz esq

          Yes wow, Bret's comment got me to notice, great pictures!

    • dukeisduke

      All they need is X's for eyes.

    • P161911

      If she hits one more cat she's a triple Ace.

  • packratmatt

    I'd run to if I knew she drove a Sorento. Yuck.

  • tonyola

    I like cats but I can only imagine what her house must smell like with this many felines on the loose.

    • There was a cat lady in the area who had hundreds of cats. They had to go in the house with hazmat gear and the hardwood floor was warped/buckling from all the accumulated urine.

      • I think every town has one. Here in my town we had a "chicken lady".

    • sidecar 57

      There would be a very strong odour of pussies.

  • Brett MacPherson

    So I assume this is whats meant by a pussy-wagon?

  • Maymar

    This screams "I will never leave you!" The tramp-stamp screams "I have something that will never leave you!" Neither are great attractors really.

  • Alff

    I'll bet that thing is filled to the roof with fast food wrappers.

  • From_a_Buick_6

    Is the family stickers thing played out yet? It was kind of cute at first, but it's tiresome now that every other family hauler on the road has them. Same goes for the monograms every girl has on her back window now.

    Personally, I think displaying your identity on your car is a bad idea. Random motorists don't need to know how many kids I have, what team I support or who I vote for. It can only lead to problems.

    • Maymar

      I'm okay with the team support, although I used to have a 24 Hours of LeMons decal on the back of my car. After I sold said car, it ended up on my front door window to let random solicitors know what I support. Eventually it'll end up on my current car.

    • Deartháir

      I have a small skull-n-crossbones on the back of my car. I figure it demonstrates my personal beliefs about as well as one of those silly Jeebus-fish.

      • mr. mzs zsm msz esq

        I had the crankshafts through skull on my Golf, but I sold it. I have a spare sticker somewhere in the house for my new car, but I can't find it, drat. My wife does all these stickers on her cars. They get really neat by the time she sells it. The last minivan had a flaming eyeball on the side and a big USA on the back among lots of others, including the stick figures. I figure with this dissonance it's pretty funny. On the current minivan she has the stick figures, a puppy dog, etc and then a Dola gang sticker somewhat like this but cooler even (dang nab it, Miyazaki must enforce copyrights strictly on his merchandise):
        <img src="http://www.onlineghibli.com/laputa/newimages/Dola.jpg"&gt;
        Forgot to add before, I don't like the magnets myself. If you're going to do-up your car, and you don't feel strongly enough to make it semi-permanent, you're doing it wrong.

      • alain

        awesome! my dad has a red one on the back of his red 09 frontier four door long bed. his other car is a 92 miata with a lot of mods. scca approved double hoop bar, tokico ultima 5 way adjustable on all four corners, strut brace, turn signal intakes, 96 1.8l motor, full polyurathane bushings, and the car is a manual everything car, including steering. that car gives me the most grins per mile out of all the cars i've driven, and my car is an 04 gto.

        • alain

          and i was randomly thinking of this post when i remembered the previous owner of my e30 i just got a month ago put a skull and crossbones sticker on the back. when i saw that sticker on the ad online, i knew i had to have it. and it was in better shape than the pictures showed.

          1991 325i ~200k miles. perfect dash, near perfect interior, bunch of new parts put in around 6 months ago. paint is a little rough, and those are crappily painted basketweaves. probably going to get spacers/hub adapters and run the miata's wheels for a little bit while i get the basketweaves powdercoated. i'm falling in love with how rewarding it is to drive, and thats coming from driving a miata with manual steering, coilovers, rollbar, front strut brace, and full poly bushings.

    • P161911

      Just put them on your driver's side fender and see what kind of reaction that you get, maybe even put multiple families, lots of cats, and people on bicycles. Works best on large pickup trucks.
      (This was sort of mentioned above)

      • Alff

        Those will go great with the bull horns on the front of my Ram, thus ensuring that my better half will never again drive it.

    • Alff

      I'd like to put one of these on my Subaru, even though it, too, is kind of played …

      • Somewhere around here I still have my ex-wife's placard from 20+ years ago. I wanted to put it in her MGBGT but she insisted it was too embarrassing.

        Still got the MGBGT too, though the ex is Loooong gone. Traded her in for a newer model that was easier to start.

        • Alff

          My motocross buds refer to your challenges with the previous model as "spark knocking".

    • Age_of_Aerostar

      what team you support……

  • So if this were made into a tramp stamp, they should cancel out?

  • Paul_y

    What's wrong with having a bunch of cats?

    /being stared down by two right now.

    • Froggmann_

      "/being stared down by two right now."

      Exactly that. Dogs love you, cats are always plotting to kill you once your no longer useful.

      • Deartháir

        Mine's plotting to kill me even while I am useful.

        It's okay though. It's mutual.

      • Mr_Biggles

        Yes. We have a kind of Inspector Clouseau vs Cato relationship with our cat. It probably doesn't help that he's referred to as Fatty and I'm constantly short-changing him on the food.

    • ptschett

      Just two is fine. Crazy cat person status takes at least three.

    • Alff

      There's nothing wrong with a bunch of cats …

      that couldn't be fixed with a little rat poison.

  • skitter

    So, do you like animals?
    Yeah, I've got a dog. He's funny, he'll chase anything.

    • sidecar57

      I like animals,they're delicious.

  • Froggmann_

    "Dear diary,

    Day 8,264 without a date. I don't know why. Even when I hire a man to show me a good time, he always turns around and runs as soon as he sees my car. Never knew Kias were so hated by men.

    Oh well I have Moopsey, Poopsey, Kitty mumps, Mow Mow, Bebi, Buffy, Doodle, Peppa, Shemp, Skittles, Snowball, Matty, Rolly and Fred to keep me company while I peruse Craigslist. Awww.. someone is giving away some kitties."

  • Deartháir

    The tags made me laugh. Rob, she's gonna kill you.

    There's a chance that the fourteen cat stickers is ironic humor plastered on the back of a beater-minivan parts hauler, owned by a totally amazing woman who fixes helicopters for a living, rides fast motorcycles for fun, appreciates fine bourbon whiskey and juke-joint barbecue, and can still kick ass at Scrabble.

    I admit that it's a very, very small chance. The odds are good that the goods are odd…

    • Foolish

      "The odds are good that the goods are odd… "

      F-ing brilliant! 🙂

      • P161911

        Reminds me of the say the very few girls at my engineering college had: "The odds are good, but the goods are odd."

        • Alff

          That is the motto of the female students at the University of Missouri, Rolla.

          • P161911

            Same at Georgia Tech.

          • IronBallsMcG

            Many of my friends went there.
            The women are like parking spaces. The good ones are taken and the rest are handicapped.

            • topdeadcentre

              "…iced over, or the frat guys park there all the time."

              Thank you, thank you, I'll be here all week. Please tip your waitron.

  • Having all those cat stickers on the window of the minivan is weird, but actually driving around with all those cats in the van would be insane. When I had to stuff my two cats into their box and take them to the vet's to have their girly bits extracted, it was like having a double air raid siren on the seat next to me. Excruciating. Maybe a new law should be written, you can't have more cats than you can stand to transport at once.

    • tonyola

      I don't know what it is about cats, but they don't seem to enjoy car rides. On the other hand, every dog I've ever had absolutely loved to go for rides. They were delighted to have the opportunity to stick their head out the window, bark at random things, and snap at bugs.

      • seaninc

        I just took my 90 lb. Labrador for a ride in my Miata. It was awesome, except when he half-shifted into 3rd for me. Yikes!

      • Froggmann_

        Well then I have the cat for ya. Mine after the first 5 minutes or so usually chills out then goes to sleep on the back seat or stares out of one of the windows. Too bad she's bi-polar and will flip on you faster than that smelly transient woman at Starbucks.

  • Foolish

    Whenever I see those Stick-figure families on vehicles, I want to add a "Lovely Lady" silhouette sticker off to the side of "Dad."

  • SSurfer321

    That's what mine does. Her cat sleeps behind the driver or passenger seat, never to be heard until the vehicle is turned off.
