The "#### cancer" stickers make we want to drive these people off the road.

First of all, they're super tasteless. I swear all the fataing time. I probably say "fata" on here more than anyone and in each instance it's when I'd use the actual word in real life in the normal way I speak. But writing it out and putting it on my vehicle? That's pure trash. It'd be like saying it loudly at a nice restaurant or something...just totally off-putting and cringe.

Second, yes, we are all going through stuff all the time. Life isn't easy for anybody. But I don't need to share Mr. Dodge Ram's pain due to his obnoxious sticker because I have my own pain I am dealing with. I don't feel like we're brothers in arms because of the sticker; I feel like he's broadcasting his trials for attention. Just totally classless to insert your difficulties onto the general populace.

Finally, if I'm driving along listening to my music maybe trying to sneak in a smile or a bit of peace into my day, I don't need some giant tacky stacker some inbred white trash look-at-me guy put on his vehicle to slap me back into reality. How about I choose to think about cancer on my own time, not when some tit forces it upon me.
Then don't put one on your vehicle.

If it helps someone deal with their cancer or a loved one's cancer then who am I to tell them not to do it.

It doesn't hurt anyone if they put a ##### Cancer sticker on their car.
