3.6.03 – on this week’s list of Fashion Trends I’m Too Un-hip to Understand

bullet-hole stickers to put on your car.

last week, i parked outside of work and noticed that the car behind me had a bullet hole on the side, up near the fender. weird, i thought. who shoots at cars in boise, idaho? the next day i parked and noticed that the mini van in front of me had two bullet holes. there was a perfectly round dent, just the size of a bullet, and the paint had flecked off unevenly for about a half inch around the center of the impact. closer examination proved, however, that these two bullet holes were perfectly identical to the one from the previous day, and that the silver paint was curling at the edges from the damp weather. these have probably been around for like a year, but, well, i’m slow with fashion trends for one’s car. i’m still trying to wrap my brain around neon license plates holders and custom-lowered hyundais.
