The Wave: Fender Bender

Bumper stickers: We all know them, but do we like them? Sure, some can be funny, and some can even be lightly informative, but most of the bumper stickers we encounter in our daily lives are just downright mean and crass. Here at The Wave, we thought it was time for us to finally take back the power of the bumper sticker and put it in the hands of the young creative minds which make up our esteemed staff. The resulting (mixed) messages of our latest collective experiment can be found below, and also seen out in the wild via the gallery above—and, who knows, perhaps even in a neighborhood near you soon!
