    I wish I was, I am tapped out after the past few events and need to skip a couple to recover. I took a new job and can't race on Saturdays, so hopefully I can fill in with a couple of the bmw events. Seat time, seat time, seat time!!

            You'd be an idiot if you spent any money on one.

              The same can be said about most consumer goods.

                Most consumer goods have some kind of utility to them though.

                The only thing you're doing by buying a Burton sticker is paying to advertise for an extremely profitable company.

                    All of those things at least have some resale value for when you finally realize how stupid your purchase was.

                    Also Xbox has entertainment value, hummer will get you all kinds of hoochie mammas, ipods play music for you when you're afk, and lawn ornaments are good for target practice.

                    Burton sticker just has the "hey look at me, I just spent $16 on a sticker!" factor going for it.

                      ^what he said.

                      Sure, you don't neeeeeeeeed any of those items, but they're fun.

                      The sticker doesn't give entertainment value or utility, it just looks cool or not.

                        So you're saying it would be less stupid to buy an expensive sticker that advertises for an unprofitable company?

                          From my perspective, yes.

                              I think the sticker has been slightly over analyzed.

                                What kind of shoes are you wearing? What brand shirt are you wearing?

                                Look, I like the sticker. Your high-and-mighty pretentiousness isn't needed here.
