    Audi: Official Car of Enslaved Dystopian Ciphers.

    ...yea, I'd say they nailed their target audience with that one.

    This is almost as impressive as the Beijing 2008 Opening Ceremony shows. Nice ad, even if the car is totally un-Jalop.

    If Mercedes had paid attention to some pranksters at Caltech c. 1962, they would have secretly replaced some of the cards to show an R class instead of a Q5.

    @engineerd:

    I was at Caltech in 1984 when the more recent Rose Bowl hijack was executed. The stadium shut the electronic scoreboard system down quickly, then pursued my poor classmates to the full extent of the law. You see, the 1984 Summer Olympics in L.A. were to use that same venue in just a few months, and the Caltech prank embarrassed the folks in charge of security, and many politicians. The students' clandestine receiver could have just as easily been a bomb.

    No one has a sense of humor anymore...


    Yours truly, BSEE Caltech, 1985

    @Charles_Barrett - Now with Variable-Valve Timing: Hahaha...I read about that one, too. Funny stuff, although they did come down really hard on them. I'm sure if those guys had done it a year later they wouldn't have police records now.


    P.S. As a ME, I was going to make a joke about how you can't spell geek without double-e's, but my username has double-e's, so it would backfire on me.

    Yet had they done that stunt anytime *after* 11 Sept. 2001, they'd probably STILL be guests at the Gitmo Hilton...

    I wouldn't buy a Mercedes that starts with an "M" either. Which pretty much rules out Mercedes altogether. A Jag, on the other hand, if only I could drop that kind of cash on a car...


    I would want a Celestial Black Metallic XJ Super V8 with the 510hp engine out of the XFR.

    If this really an Audi, 25% of those people will have alzheimers and forget how they're supposed to operate, 25% will have thyroid problems that will cause them to wear out much faster than normal, and 25% will quit as soon as the warranty runs out and their replacements will cost a fortune.

    @Jo Schmo, Pauljones evil and opposite twin: Jolly good show. couple issues:


    expertsexchange.com takes me to a blank page titled domain disabled.

    ihavegas.com doesn't load at all.

    oddsextractor.com redirects to "be tangel.com" :P

    molestationnursery.com loads one of those we-don't-exist-search-pages.

    gotahoe.com redirects to "got a hoe north.com" :P


    but I do have to say my favorite from your list is "whore presents.com" :D
