Dave Garrett Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 https://www.gq.com/story/keep-honking-alice-coltrane-bumper-sticker Not sure about "everywhere", as I have yet to see one in the wild, but with 8,000 of them out there so far, I guess it's well on its way to some sort of virality.

JSngry Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Haven't seen it, still trying to figure out the WTF?ness of this one, which I have seen may times in many places: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clifford_thornton Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 yeah, they're all over the Northeast and NY. The story is actually kinda neat, though I gather a lot of those stickers are on cars whose owners have never listened to Alice Coltrane.

Dub Modal Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Haven't seen the Coltrane sticker but it's derived from another bumper sticker about the Mummy, which said something like (and I'm paraphrasing here): "I'd rather be watching the cinematic masterpiece The Mummy starring Brendan Fraser and Rachel Weisz" - with the same sort of syntax and design as this Coltrane one. I'm surprised the GQ article doesn't mention that unless I missed it. Either way, I hope people end up buying/streaming Alice after seeing this.

sambrasa Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 I clicked on the link to the article hoping to see the famous bumper sticker. No luck. The photo posted here looks like Bill Murray so that's no good. Well maybe one day I'll be lucky enough to spot the famous Alice Coltrane bumper sticker everyone is talking about.

The first thing that comes up in that article is a picture of that sticker. The layout is so plain that you might be forgiven for thinking it's not the actual sticker.

JSngry Posted October 24, 2022 Report Share Posted October 24, 2022 Now, can somebody explain the Bill Murray decals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per a comment at quora, Bill allowed them use of this pic (from a Paul Thomas Anderson movie I think) bc he liked their charity donations. So people who think it looks cool to have a sticker of Murray on their car post it up. I'd bet if said folks actually met him or ran into him they'd think twice about that.
