Things Could be Worse, You Could Be This Guy

Once in a while, you'll see a car with a bullet hole in it. The hole has a nimbus of steel around it, where the force of the bullet has ripped the paint off it as it slammed into the car. It's also worth noting that generally, these cars aren't very nice. one does look upon them with some wonder; where has this person been? What's the story behind it? Obviously, there are tales to be told.

Other times, you'll see a car that appears to have a number of bullet holes in it. Then you get up close and realize -- they're stickers. Worse than big pants, bullet holes stickers seem to be the ultimate indicators of total posers. People who would never be subject to having their cars shot at, have to buy stickers for their cars to imply their transgressive nature. Perhaps this has to to do with action flicks? Frankly, we find it a bit puzzling.


One imagines that people who actually do have their cars shot aren't thrilled, and if they have the money, they get it fixed. If these sticker guys were real badasses, they either a) wouldn't draw attention to themselves or b) they would take their car out to the desert and shoot them themselves. But what would that do to the resale value!
