    This was probably relevant and/or funny 4 years ago, it as lame as the whole PC/Mac thing or the Dallas/Dynasty controversy.

    All these comments and not a single mention of the fact that Current TV was started by Al Gore?

    I looked at the video and saw this animated dude. I decided not to listen, because I found it entertaining without any volume. I made up my own story. It went something like this:


    "I have a question. The Prius is a "green car". 2004 I bought a brand new Camry. That thing was the BIGGEST PIECE OF SHIT I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE. EVERY DAY I WAS GETTING A RECALL. I HAVE NEVER SEEN A CAR FUCK UP SO FUCKING MUCH. WHY WOULD YOU FUCKING MAKE A CAR OUT OF PLASTING AND BLAH? ONE NIGHT, IT WAS PERFECTLY DRY OUT AND THE CAR FLIPPED ALL ON ITS OWN AND THREW MY FRIEND OUT THE BACK WINDOW AND BROKE MY PINKY FINGER. IT REALLY HURTS. SO TOYOTA SHOULD JUST GIVE ME A PRIUS BECAUSE THERE IS NO WAY I AM GOING TO BUY ONE!"

    Yup, Nerds... taking over the world. First, they destroyed Star Wars, then got cool people driving their cars, rolling around on Segways, and elected a Harvard guy to Office... and Now Star Trek shall take over as the dominant cool space adventure. A Mission Accomplished banner will hang over the entrance of every Sci-Fi convention.

    It's not that hard to understand. The Prius means you care about the world. That means you hug Bambi. Girls love Bambi. So that means you can't be as big a dick as you've just been acting to her. So maybe you're going to get some soon.


    Face it, you are powerless to resist. The genes have spoken.
