Honest Bumper Stickers 2016: The Hits Just Keep Coming

I warned you.  I warned you there were more of these coming.

Leave it to Bush Numero Tres to ignite the fire tonight to get more of these posted.  Thanks to that laughably over-exuberant logo he launched this weekend for his 2016 campaign, I am here to bring you this:

The original font is Baskerville, but all I have
with this ancient CorelDraw 9 software that's
closest is Calson.  The trained eye will notice the difference...
It's more cluttered than the ones the Washington Post bloggers are dreaming up, but it's the meme I'm going with so screw it.

Now that's out of my system, let's move on to the other victims uh major campaigners for the Presidency in 2016...

Honest Bumper Stickers 2016

A while back, when Hillary made her official announcement her campaign also came out with a marketing logo

meant to inspire folks I guess.  It ended up bringing out the jokesters - myself included - who thought it was stolen from a health care provider or a hospital.

In response, I drew up a couple of Hillary '16 bumper stickers and shared them on Facebook with the Horde, if I can load them up here lemme show you:



I know the H2O one is a little obscure as a thing - Hillary is water? - but putting the letter "h" near 20 in the 2016 was impossible to resist.  Some of the fellow Horde liked the H2O one.

For some reason during today, with announcements here and there and all over the place the past month, I got to musing over bumper stickers.  In particular, what kind of crazy bumper sticker ideas each of the candidates could come up with.  It was O'Malley that I was thinking of, and so far a check of his official campaign site doesn't show much, just his last name in a chat balloon.

I had an idea for an O'Malley logo, went like this:


I know I'm pushing it, mixing the number 0 in 2016 with the O in O'Malley, but I like to think this is eye-catching.

Most of the real-world logos/sticker designs so far are pretty placid, standard works.  Some already have some pretty bad logos and designs, such as Hillary's and, well take a look:

I was personally upset because this looks like
Cruz went and stole the Unitarian Flame design...
This is less a flame and more a teardrop.

I look at this and think "German Engineering Firm, right?"


What got into my head today was "Oh hey let's come up with REALLY bad, VERY brutal bumper stickers that would embarrass the hell out of any self-respecting campaign manager."

So, in the interest of fairness, here are the really bad bumper stickers we can expect from our 2016 doom-bringers.









Okay, so I'm kinda rushing the last couple bumper stickers, but hey it's a loooooooonnnnggggggggg f-cking campaign season and I've got months to come up with better ones, ya think? :)

Trying To Come Up With Replacement Logo For The Horde of the Lost Battalion

Or is that Lost Battalion of the Horde?  I think Lost Battalion of Platonic Conversationalists is too 2008... gotta update, gotta update...



I have dire need of a graphic artist.  I can do font design, but actual artwork is... well... I'm stuck at poorly rendered 2D figures.  Find me an artist, then we can get a 2014 Horde logo up that people will like.
