April 16


I normally try to space out my commute photos to every other day or so, but today's bumper sticker was so freakin' perfect, I had to use it.

I've always associated the word Masshole with Massachusetts drivers and their habit of offensive driving. I hadn't really realized that it was used in other contexts -- perhaps because I've only lived here for ten years or so. It's something people around here seem to take perverse pride in. "Masshole," is the perfect example of taking a pejorative nickname and turning it into something you're proud to be.

Thus, seeing this bumper sticker on a car en route to work today, I actually made a point of going back and getting the photo. I've never seen this particular bumper sticker before, but now, I want one for myself. To use the local slang, it's wicked pissah.
