By now, you’ve likely been behind a vehicle adorned with little white stickers representing the family members contained in their car.
Just in case you felt compelled to know who the heck was riding in there.
It’s hard to be nosy these days with all that tinted glass, so it’s surely a relief for me to have it all mapped out right there on the back window in stick figure form. I mean, you’re already stuck at the longest red light in history, and once you’ve picked the dirt out from under your nails and checked in the mirror for chin hairs, what’s left to do but get to know the people in front of you?
I’ve seen the standard stick family adorning the back window:
Hey there, happy stick family--nice to meet you! Um, I think Rover's trying to eat Kitty.
The nice thing is, when you’re aching to know just a little bit more about the inhabitants of that Taurus, like all of their individual hobbies, there it is for you to enjoy in whimsical stick figure form:
Doggeh looks confused. Or embarrassed. Or both.
Can’t get enough of Mickey and friends? Well, go ahead and shout it out in stick form on the back of the family wagon!
Yay! Even Fido loves Mickey. Wheeee!
I’m not sure they sell stick figure stickers that would accurately represent the Wombat family, so I had to create my own:
Yes, farts are funny. But really, people?
What’s on your ride (If it’s these stickers, um, sorry!)?
Update:
Added this post as one of my favorites ever to celebrate the one-year blogoversary of Mama Wants This and The Momalog. You can link up, too:
From Johnny Baker Boy:
who started the stick family adornment? Remember the I “heart” my dog, cat, horse, etc stickers? You used to be able to buy a circular sticker to cover the “heart” with a picture of a “screw”.. that was funny. maybe we should market a “fart” icon to stick on random vehicles in the grocery parking lot??
From Wombat Central:
I’m on it, ya sleestack. Pick me up in your truck after dark and we’ll paste them on together. You bring the beverages.
From Slappy (gina):
Is there a sticker for my daughter’s loser boyfriend too? and a tiny little engagement ring for him to give her?
From Wombat Central:
I can make that!
From Karyn Climans:
Believe it or not, I was at the ABC (All Baby & Kids) trade show when the sticker families were first introduced to the market. They were the biggest attraction at last year’s event with a line-up of buyers waiting to place orders for the product. Why didn’t I think of them … I’d be rich by now. I personally think that the Wombat sticker family is the most realistic of them all! You are a very funny lady and I’m happy to subscribe to your blog posts. Thanks for visiting my blog site too!
From Wombat Central:
Your inventions are cuter.
From bonnie cronin:
I guess I would take one just like yours except I need 4 grown sons and 3 dogs all with farts AND their shirts pulled over their noses because you only like the smell of your own brand not someone else’s.
From Wombat Central:
Bahahahaha! You poor woman!
From Curiosity:
According to my windshield, the only thing riding in my car is dust.
…Which is probably at least half accurate.
From Wombat Central:
Oh, well if the outside dust is an advertisement, I have a whole lotta that going on in my car, too.
From spokeit:
hahahaha, mine would reflect me in the car, singing at decibels only dogs can hear…I wonder what that looks like in stick form…
From Wombat Central:
I may have to draw that one for you…
From Katya:
There’s a stick family in my neighborhood that have names. The family is the Ass Family and each member of the Ass Family has a name — things like Stinky and Big and Broke.
From Wombat Central:
Classy!
From Rebecca:
I totally LOVE this post. And the fart family is my favorite. Thanks for sharing.

From Wombat Central:
See? Proof right there that farts are funny. Of course, we don’t want to advertise it on our vehicle. Or maybe we do.
From Kris:
Those stick figure families are so lame.
So very lame.
But . . . if they sold the fart ones?
I might buy those and put them on our car.
I so might.
Hee hee!
From Alison@Mama Wants This:
Hahahahahahaha!!!
You should sell that.
