On the contrary, current teenagers say far too much, there is a line and kids aren't taught where that line is. Either that or they are and they see it as their goal to cross it, as extremely and as often as possible

Anyway, O/T, sorry

trouble is ,and its somthing i have noticed with you young folk, is that we have tought the last 2 generations in school to be politicaly correct with everything. so they tend to be frightened to say what they think........having said that its your opinion that stickers should be fun and your entitled to it.

In support of Minili, it's nowt to do with political correctness, really (or age). If I see a car at a mini show with some kind of moronic slogan on it (e.g. True Brit, not German.....), no matter how beautiful the car is, it gives an incredibly bad first impression of the owner & puts me off speaking to them.......

That's exactly where I was coming from, JuJu

The girlies are right, nything to hostile in't going to get you or your Mini any respect and sounds a little too defensive as if you're threatened.

I'd go for something along the lines of

"I was worried my Mini was conceited but thanks to BMW now I know it really is perfection."

you might need a bigger window though.

You're right, it is nothing to do with political correctness. I don't think there's anything wrong with a sticker like '100% BMW free'. It's not promoting any kind of -ism and definitely not moronic. You'll find that the owner just holds the simple belief that the only real Minis are the originals and they're proud to drive a British icon rather something with a Mini badge on it.

a buddy of mine has one on his roof that says "if you are driving and you can read this, your vehicle is too damn big"... two lines along the roof rail above the passenger side...

I have Frogeddaboutit on my back window... (my car's name is Le Fraug).... I also have Le Fraug and custom frog logos on the side windows.... and "Buttkicker... Feel what you've been missing" on the side windows....

pics to follow

No, just generally offensive

eg:

"i really dont give a f*ck what you think"

I agree, something like that seems to be used to *yellow human water* everyone off just for the sake of it. Nothing to do with polictical correctness (the actual swearword isn't offencive, to me atleast, but it's the way it is used that annoys me).

I bought 'The car in front is a REAL Mini' and never got round to putting it on - now I want to get 'Never underestimate a Mini' and some more custom logos if i can find somewhere that does them for a good enough price.
