I reckon somebody needs to make singles ones that look a bit different - could be a good pickup

One chick and 14 cats - wonders why she is single.....

The creators of these stupid stickers have sold 2 million stickers at $2.50 a pop for animals and $4 for humans over the past 2 years. Who's laughing now ?
The following article was in the Telle a few months ago - funny.

I believe they started in a garage on the gold coast,I'm not too sure if they created the idea having seen these stickers in Hawaii in 07.

My wife has the set on her car...a gift from my mother-in-law that "we have to use or she'll get upset!"

...just adds fuel to my argument of interfering m-i-l's.

Saw one a bit like this the other day, it was a father, mother, two kids and some pets, and the mother had a great big cross of red electrical tape over her.

Could have been worse, could have been a Unit sticker, southern cross sticker etc...

Why not buy the mum-in-law some stickers for her car, and mention to your beloved that you will be upset if they are not used.
I'm sure our fellow seabreezers will be willing to find something appropriate for her...

Edit: I had interfering in-laws in the past, it is no fun. It seems that some people who 'get upset' use their behaviour for 1% of the time to try to control everyone elses behaviour 100% of the time.

You had a mother-in-law so you know what I'm up against, so you also know that your sticker idea won't work.

Our stickers should show (in order of importance as rated by my wonderful wife) wife, kids, her mother, her friends, the mortgage, wife's work, her hairdresser, our pets (dog, budgies, rabbit, guinea-pig, goldfish)...

...then if there's still space, her car, garden, shoes, clothes, piece of belly-button lint...then maybe me?

Perhaps my ex in-laws are related to your in-laws?
My ex-mother-in-law used to call up her daughter and ask how the family was going. In order, she would ask her daughter...
"How are you..."
"How are the kids..."
"How is Lizzie (our dog)"
and finally, if she was feeling generous...
"Oh, and how is David (me)..."
Not once was I featured before the dog. If nothing else, I knew where I stood...

It seems my role in life was to provide for her daughter. My wife really wanted a daugher; after the birth of son #3 my mother-in-law openly blamed me for the fact that he was not a girl (apparently the father's sperm determines the sex of the baby, hence it was my fault her daughter was disappointed).
It gets much worse than this, but I will spare everyone the details.

Anyway, perhaps we could get your mum-in-law a sticker (witch on a broom?) and have a friend or fellow seabreezer install it on her car as a favour. Perhaps while she is visiting you, so there is no way you can be accused of such a deed.
Of couse photos would need to be taken and posted here for the general amusement of all (well, for the general amusement of all of us who have had controlling in-laws).
Do it, you know you want to....

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ You've just given me an idea to purchase a sh1tload of not so nice family stickers and place them on cars of people I don't like or do like but wanna take the piss. 2 blokes and a cocker spaniel perhaps. I wonder how long before they realise?

each to their own but they do seem quite monocultural. I have not seen any for muslims for example

Yes, monocultural, confined mostly to white middle class twits driving Japanese soft-roaders.

Nothing says "I'm a middle class breeding bogan from an estate suburb" faster than a hyundai Santa Fe with faded frangipani stickers, fresh "my family" stickers, a "baby on board" sign, and for the QLDers a zupps elephant sticker too.

We have a genetic misfit that drives around our sleepy country town in a lowered Hilux ute, with a big UNIT sticker on the back window and "we grew here you flew here" sticker on the windscreen. We only have one set of traffic lights in town but one day he will pull up at them and a Tarago full of Tongans will pull this Fwit apart like a hot chook

And those making the most noise have probably got some kind of ripsilverbong fan boy sticker plastered over their car.
