I agree, the 26.2 is douchy. If you graduated from a good college and you put that sticker out there, I don't mind that because that's a REAL accomplishment.

Gee you ran 26.2 miles at one time. Is that hard? Sure. Does it mean much of anything? No.

On the kids' honor roll bumper stickers, I do have a bit of a different opinion though. I agree it comes across pretentious until you think about it from the 6 year old's point of view. He just got a good report card, he's proud, he sees other kids' moms with the bumper sticker on the car, and now he's earned it too. Are you as a parent going to tell him no?

If you did, you'd be a bigger douche than the parent who displays them proudly.
