PHOTO: 'No Airbags' Bumper Sticker has People Rolling Their Eyes

When you're stuck in gridlocked traffic, there's nothing like reading tacky bumper stickers to pass the time. When drivers slap ridiculous memes that perfectly identify the type of character they are on their vehicles, it's open season for mockery and judgment.


Twitter user @aimeeclarke spotted a bumper sticker that declared: "No airbags, we die like real men."

She posted it online for full Twitterverse mockery:

And Twitter, of course, obliged...

The meme "We die like men" gained popularity in August 2016 as a snowclone, where the words "airbags" and "die" are used interchangeably in jokes. A popular example is one that was posted by "grec1a" on Tumblr that read, “No proofreading, we die like men,” which went on to amass over 76,000 responses.

The "No airbags" bumper sticker is a big hit, however, with satisfied customers on Amazon writing reviews like this one: "Great decal, truly defines my disregard for personal safety and machismo. 10/10 would drive aggressively with this decal adorning my vehicle again."

At 68,000 likes, Aimee's tweet is her first that has gone viral. A user asked, "Is this your first viral tweet? It’s a weird feeling hey!" and "It’s only happened to me once and I had the same feeling! My phone was literally running hot. Had to log out for a bit." Unsure of her viral status, Aimee expressed how she wasn't particularly fond of the flood of responses. "I spent all day trying to figure out how to make the notifications stop haha," she replied.

But she wasn't mad about it either. She added, "My friends told me to delete the tweet if i hated the notifications and i was like 'NO THIS IS MY FIVE MINUTES.'

Although viral status did not come without controversy.

One guy's response to Aimee's tweet ignited a bit of a battle of the sexes:

But it didn't stop Aimee from posting this gem:

Emma Stone's New Movie Just Forced People To Shave Their Heads To See 'Bald-Only' Early Screening

Would you shave your head for $20? Or, more accurately, would you shave your head for something worth $20?

Average movie ticket prices in California are about $20—that's $40 for a date night and $80 for a family of four. So the opportunity to see a free advanced screening of Bugonia, a new movie by Yorgos Lanthimos (Poor Things) starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, might be enough to entice some people to do some stunt.

Steve Bannon Just Assured People That Trump Has A 'Plan' To Stay In Office In 2028 In Alarming New Interview

Former White House counselor-turned-far-right influencer Steve Bannon was criticized after revealing that President Donald Trump has a "plan" to get a third term as president, an action that would violate constitutional norms.

The 22nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution clearly states that “No person shall be elected to the office of the President more than twice, and no person who has held the office of President, or acted as President, for more than two years of a term to which some other person was elected President shall be elected to the office of the President more than once.”

Andrew Cuomo Slammed After Campaign Posts Racist AI Video Of 'Criminals For Zohran Mamdani'

Former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was criticized after his official social media pages shared—then quickly deleted—an AI-generated campaign ad depicting "Criminals for Zohran Mamdani," his democratic socialist opponent.

Mamdani handily defeated Cuomo in New York City's Democratic mayoral primary in June, sparking racist and Islamophobic backlash from right-wingers who've claimed his policies would "destroy" the city. The latest polls show Mamdani has a double-digit lead over Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa, who is facing calls to drop out.
