Boots Middle-earth Bumper Stickers

OK, I've to go to a work event next week and before it I have to think up what I'd have on a sticker in my car so that other people can try and guess which sticker belongs to which person (yes, I know...). You know, like those "Baby on Board" or the 'humorous' (allegedly) "My other car is a porsche" stickers?

Of course, it would be a Tolkien sticker! And I thought it might be a diverting thread topic...

So, go for it. Think up some silly Middle-earth bumper stickers!

How about:

My other car is Shadowfax

Hobbit on board

Shouldn't that be "My other horse is Shadowfax"?

For me there is nothing like a "Baby on Board" sticker to induce road rage. In Mithalwen's Britain anyone displaying one will be shot, or at least sterilised But the "Babe on Board" ones amuse me so I'll order one for Asfaloth...


How about

The bigger the hat, the better the wizard (Gandalf)

What would Elrond do? (acknowledgements to B88)

If you can read this, I've lost the Dwarf! (Legolas or whoever is transporting Gimli)

How about the classic:

"YOU SHALL NOT PASS!"

You can also, if desired, add Flame of Udun at the end to make it sound it cooler.

Or if you have something big like a Hummer or something you can just write:

"The real Grond"

EDIT: or maybe Gandalf '08! for all the US voters.

I'd rather be riding Shadowfax.


I brake for Ents

Actually, You shall not pass! would be very, very funny, except that I tend to tootle along slowly so it would be a lie if I was driving

How about...

Gimli's bumper: Axes don't kill people, I kill people

Morgoth's bumper: I'd tell you to go to The Void, but I don't want to see have to you everyday

Gandalf's: You can't ride in my little red cart

or

Saruman's: Save Isengard! It's the only place you can have a blast
