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:

Tim Walz Has Epic Clapback After Nancy Mace Asks Him To Define 'Woman' During Congressional Hearing

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz had a splendid response after South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace attempted to claim that his support for transgender women would bar him from recognizing fraud in his state.

Walz's appearance at the hearing comes amid conservative claims—offered with little supporting evidence—that Somali-run childcare centers in Minnesota improperly received public funds intended to support childcare for low-income families. Subsequently, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the FBI expanded their presence in Minnesota as federal authorities froze childcare funding statewide.

Elmo Just Asked His Followers 'Where Have You Been?'—And Zohran Mamdani Had The Purest Response

Elmo, the furry red childlike monster from Sesame Street designed by Caroly Wilcox, began his life as a generic "baby monster" background filler in the 1979-1980 season of the long-running children's television program.

Originally having a gruff voice supplied by various puppeteers, Elmo found his falsetto-voiced, loving persona when Kevin Clash took over in 1985. Elmo was transformed into a three-and-a-half-year-old character designed to connect with the show's audience of preschoolers.
