Was it just a rainbow, or was it one of those "ho-hum, just another sh|tty day in paradise" stickers? Because that VX looks like it had one really sh|tty day.

VX1: lmao![]()
You see, it's as if I told you I love to wear Victoria's Secret lingerie. Would you think of me as 7' tall, slender blonde? Yet, I am 5' tall, far from anorexia, brunette... LOL Would you be disappointed that you were mistaken?
Sticker doesn’t make you gay. Car doesn't make you gay. What they say, doesn't make you gay...
And really... F*** P.C. police. Lets just not judge before we get to the truth.
What scares me though, is how fast VX population is dwindling…
i will give $5 to the first person i meet who has a rainbow sticker like that one on the back of there car and isnt gay.

Yal^>Actually, my wife is 5' tall, shapely, and brunette, and seriously she's the most beautiful thing I've every laid my eyes on, so no, I would not be disappointed! I understand your point is the ol' "don't judge a book by it's cover' adage with the Victoria Secret reference, but in this case, the stickers do truly make them gay. They use them as a "gay pride" kind of thing and as a way to identify themselves to other gays. So when someone sees that particular sticker, they can be easily identified as gay, and that's not putting them down; they are proud of it, and want to be identified as such. It's a good idea I suppose; it would have been cool to have the heterosexual equivalent when I was single, to let the ladies know I was open for business. Anyway, I am sorry for the tone I used (in the things I DIDN"T SAY), but the couple of posts after Numba1goalie's just struck a nerve, and I got up on my soapbox before I even knew it. I should have just said: I definitely don't hate gays, but it would really bother me if I saw many more of those stickers on VehiCrosses. But, I'm a little shallow, don't mind me.
Back...slightly on subject (population dwindling), all VX owners I've ever met have really been great, and I hate to see them leave the club, but on the other hand, the exclusivity of the VX is really, really nice. Do you know how much you’d have to pay to be this exclusive anywhere else? True exotics are so expensive, and that’s only talking about the maintenance. Less than exotics, say in the Jaguar XK – Mercedes CL range really aren’t built a whole lot better than your run-of-the-mill Mustang GT, but you’re paying heavily for the exclusivity. I get it for free with the VX; such a great thing!
I will say that I only see another VX once every few months, so we might be exclusive enough- nobody go anywhere (exclusive == good, extinct == bad).

Well said buffarchitect.
I haven't replied again out of pure disgust. When it comes to bigots it seems they just don't get it. Sad to think some drive VX's.
In the replies above I sense some serious insecurity issues... However, it's sadistically rewarding to know some are so influenced/controlled by what people might think of them as a result of something they drive/enjoy/own, etc., that it cripples their life. Let them suffer, after all, they do it to themselves. On the other hand, I'm sad for them as prisoners of public opinion and personal ignorance.
For me it wasn't about being "PC". It was more or less, 'who cares?' What a stupid thing to point out...
Regarding the diminishing number of VX's out there? It is sad. Agreed. I do enjoy the benefits of having such a rare vehicle though. No matter who puts what kind of sticker on their VX...

Yep, that's why I'd never make it in politics; I tend not to think like the common man. But, I don't strive to be common, so that means nothing to me. Debating with the other 20% also means nothing to me. I'd prefer you don't come to "Napa" and touch my truck. If I'm a bigot, I'm one of those nice ones that lives and let lives, you know, be whatever you want, just don't push it on me. "Small minded" would have to be the antithesis to what I am...but I understand it would make you feel better to see someone who does not share your views on bumper stickers in that light. Interesting that you should choose someone whom you do not know to look down upon, but I understand it makes it easier to do so. If I am indeed imprisoned by an ignorance, then by all means, throw away the key, because I do love where I am. Your sadness [ in me driving a VX] may take consolation that even I will sell it one day, when it no longer works for me, and shall make yet another self-serving decision of which vehicle to aquire.
Archie Bunker was not too funny to me. I am German though, so if you still feel compelled to find a way to hate me, I suppose you could use that and an "ignorance" for history and culture to explain why I don't get you.
Yea i think this got way out of hand. I made a couple word sentence with no bad meaning behind it and now this thread turned into this? It may just be me, but I am amazed by how antagonistic you people have gotten over a comment I made because I was bored at home and just overanalizing a picture. I bet you wouldnt make such a tiff if someone walking down the street said the same thing to their friend, and you werent even part of the conversation.
