Do you drive a Honda?!

I wasn't sure if you drove a Honda when I saw the silver Honda decals on the hood and the back of your car.  I still wasn't sure, even with the large silver lettering spelling out "HONDA" on your trunk.  It wasn't until I saw the 3 foot wide decal taking up your entire back window that I figured out, "Hey, I think the car in front of me is a Honda!"

Is it just me, or are those decals completely ridiculous?!  I've seen not one, but THREE of these monstrosities decorating the cars driving in my neighborhood, and I'm wondering if the drivers are trying to remind themselves that they drive a Honda everytime they check the rear view mirror, or if they want the thousands of clueless drivers around them to be assured that the car in front of them is a Honda.

The only cars that should be plastered with commercial decals should be NASCAR vehicles.  Even then, the fact that it costs thousands of dollars for a post-it note-sized sticker that isn't visible even with a close up of the car driving around the track at 200 mph, makes it equally as silly.

Something even more amusing is that when I did an internet search for information on these decals, I came across dozens of message board posts about street car drivers begging people for advice on how to get these tacky stickers off of their car.  What comes to mind is the desperate need for the removal of tattoos proclaiming your love for a complete jerk you dumped years ago, only now you have a fading and semi-permanent reminder you have to see everyday.
