We the People (Places and Things)

It's not the very best bumper sticker I've spotted so far, but it's right up there.

Mister Earl said...: Actually, "I am pro verb." I teach writing to lawyers and one of their common sins is "nouniness." Instead of "visited," they'll say, "made a visitation." Instead of "observed," they'll say "made an observation." We try to stamp this out!; May 15, 2011 at 6:09 AM
Mister Earl said...: I wonder what being "pro noun" is really about.; May 15, 2011 at 6:10 AM
Judy Williams said...: That is fantastic. I love clever bumper stickers, but given the size of the font, you'd have to get up pretty close to read it. Really hilarious.; May 15, 2011 at 6:47 AM
Judy Williams said...: I am pro wrestling (not really, but my husband and son are going to the taping of "Smack Down" tonight at the Erwin Center in Austin).; May 15, 2011 at 6:48 AM

(I rather like Alex's though!!!)

If I am pro noun...what am I for??? Very thought provoking Ms LA!!!; May 15, 2011 at 10:59 AM
Mister Earl said...: DB: It was not only an oxymoron bumper sticker, it was a pro moron bumper sticker.; May 15, 2011 at 6:06 PM
Mister Earl said...: Only when they put a Bush sticker on them!; May 15, 2011 at 8:47 PM
dbdubya said...: Sort of like an Obama sticker on a Hummer.; May 15, 2011 at 8:50 PM
Mister Earl said...: Or a Ten sticker on anything!; May 15, 2011 at 8:52 PM
Brenda's Arizona said...: I love this!
When some people tell stories, they can get into 'pronoun' trouble - too many 'shes/hes... How annoying!
I guess I am anti pro noun?; May 16, 2011 at 5:49 AM
