Do YOU have shite hangin' from your rearview mirror?

[Rob Hilding]

I don't get this.......

I see it  A LOT - it's crystals that'll blind you, ribbons flowers, beads etc., etc., etc.

I admit in 1969 I had a headband hanging from my Beetles rear view - but I was a dumb hippie 

Nowadays I see things hanging in cars driven by all ages and sexes

WTF

Just a parking permit.

Don't forget the CDs.. the big reflective CDs...

Nothing on my at the mo.  years back I had my GFs of the time thong on there for two weeks.  I bet her that I could have it up there and no one would comment/notice.  I actually won the bet, to my shock.. I did fold them up a bit so they were not in my way, but it was still pretty obvious what they where.  I have some really unobservant friends...

Like 99% of the H.S. grads of the day (early 90's), I hung my graduation tassle from the rear-view for about the entire summer of that year. 

After that?  Only what's necessary (like a parking permit).

Oh, and I don't get it either. 





Hehehe....  You only *think* that you were a dumb hippie!

I did the same thing. Now I have nothing adorning the interior of my car that the factory didn't put there.

The way I like to take corners, having something hanging from the mirror would get annoying real fast.

do pink tassles from the Duc's mirrors count?  They match the wheels after all.

I have a lei around my rearview mirror but #1. I have a Jeep Wrangler and #2. it's wrapped around the arm of the mirror not hanging down so it's not in the way at all.

I hung a dead hippy from mine

When the sun hits 'em you can smell patchouli (an shid)

Always knew a Mexican or tourist's car when I was living in Tucson by the saddle hanging from the mirror.  They picked them up at the border in Nogales.  

I saw a lot of dreamcatchers too.

In the truck I have a parking permit too.

However...In my 1972 Triumph Spitfire (which I bought in 1977) in the ash tray (which is on the top of the padded dashboard---stupid place) I have dried flowers, which were there when I bought the car. I guess the original owner didn't want anyone putting cig butts in the ash tray.

Not exactly rear view morror but...does that count? It sorta related IMO...?

Gotta be some of the oldest dried flowers in the world, eh?

[somegirl]

Never bothered with anything besides the occasional parking permit.

Do they smell like dead hippies

[Old-Duckman]

Do they smell like dead hippies

Sad to say, I have smelled old hippies. As a side job, I teach jewelry making and metalsmithing at several area Arts Centers...I have my share of old Hippies as students....many of them are "art types" and some (surely not all) are rather "ripe" at times...However, I have never even attempted to smell the dried flowers in the Spit's ash tray...I would assume they have no smell left at all...
