However, it IS the perfect car for Little People. And they can still have hot, nasty sex in it.

sure that car wasn't stolen from a merry-go-round? My sister-in-law has strap-ons that are bigger than that "car."

Bring back those effin' gas-guzzling Cadillacs with fins!

This is how long your deeply touched eco-conscience lasts--until something tweaks your eloi machismo.

Funny that the only lesson today's execs seem to be getting from the success of 70s cinema is to bet everything on a gimmick like 3-d, rather than make better movies.

DZ - Universal shutting down has nothing to do with IB, and everything to do with LAND OF THE LOST, DUPLICITY, PUBLIC ENEMIES, etc.

Muscle cars RULE, and, really? Sorry, but eco-conscious is a synonym for PURE DOUCHE.

Like, if you're all so worried about the ENVIRONMENT, stop having kids. Why are people still pumping out kids if they're OH SO WORRIED about the IMPENDING DOOM of climate change? So you're UTTERLY CONVINCED that WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE! in like 10, 20 years... yet you're still having kids? Face it, you don't believe in this bullshit any more than the rightest right winger.

It's PC feel-good shit to assuage people's guilt. We like cars and chemicals and WINNING and being awesome. Yeah, let's just all give up our entire way of life and sit around eating soy cheese and lawn clippings and bringing our DISGUSTING cloth bags to Trader Joe's wearing flip-flops and looking all pasty and vegan'd out driving around on our gay unicycles and strumming our acoustic guitars under the campfire.

Fuck ALL THAT. I don't give the SLIGHTEST FUCK about the environment, and it's not gonna go down till I'm old as fuck and I WILL NOT CARE.

Two words: Han Solo. "Better her than me." If you're dumb enough to have kids and bring them into a world that you think isn't going to last BECAUSE OF FAST FOOD WRAPPERS and GLASS BOTTLES, then I don't give a FUCK about anyone who comes after me.

"The environment" is an uimpressive bogeyman, and the fringe hippie loons went so far in overstating this unseeable "enemy" that just, face it, ISN'T SEXY or threatening, that now nobody takes it seriously.

Now I'm gonna go throw my glass beer bottles and newspapers in with my regular trash and not feel the least bit bad about it.

Wash your mouth out, LexG, you fat prick -- due respect. ;-) The point is about contradiction. Wells can't be all grim and concerned one minute and three posts later grunting for a Cadillac. That's just the deck chair on his sinking boat that he's been crabbing about. Cripes, a contradiction like that would be, oh, you evolving a forebrain -- due respect. ;-)

LexG says ...

Well, considering 99% of the other countries in the world aren't ECO-CONSCIOUS and aren't GOING GREEN, us driving around in this douchey minicar in L.A. isn't gonna make a whole fuckload of difference, now, is it?

Environmentalists are like the Bible-thumpers who seem to think Jesus was an American soldier raised on the NASCAR circuit. There's a whole world out there. Or maybe you think these supposed RAYS OF OZONE FLAME will politely avoid California because we installed some paper-less toilets.

It's LUDICROUS.

I had to spend a week in an office that had WATER-LESS urinals. Sorry if it makes me some unenlightened cretin NOT to want pee into the last 20 guys' foulness and hairs and have it all spatter back on me. They can drill in every hole in America for all the deep crude all they want for all I care. I just want some goddamn water in my urinals.

Going Green? More like Going Douche.

Vernon Hardapple says ...

@Quality Gibberish: Those are some quality posts, sir.

Wells just got fnished waxing on about Collapse--a movie that posits that we are all doomed, with one the main tenants of that claim related to decreasing oil reserves--then has the audacity to
to criticize an Eco-efficient vehicle for it's apparent lack of manliness!?

Seriously, Wells. Are u really this shallow in your thinking? Do you really equate the potential of ones masculine credentials with the kind of car one drives? I would have thought you were much more nuanced and intelligent than that, sir. Surely, you can't actually believe that ones manliness is tied up in the type or size of automobile they drive? Surely, you are not so small a thinker than some drunken, ignorant, backwards fool like Lex. G?

You know what's manly, Wells? Taking responsibility as a person who lives on this earth by doing your part to decrease carbon emissions and decrease our dependence on oil. That's manly, Wells.

@Lex G: as much as you like to put on your mancow-like dog and pony shows and play the game of he who can be the most unthinking, insensitive, shock for shocks sake, sexist, ignorant, uninformed, drunken fool in HE land, that doesn't excuse the fact that you at an absolute horror show of a human being.

It is the small-mindedness of folks like you (and sadly, Wells, if he actually believes what he has posted here) that contribute to the growing masses of the no brainer, never changer set that exemplifies both the Morloch and Eloi. I think a list should be compiled of those of whom not only denied the coming climate crises, but those who sat on their asses and did absolutely nothing to try and alleviate the situation, so if and when the oceans rise, those on the list can be used as sandbags to quell the rising tides. Hell, I would even allow for them to be put inside their precious, gas-guzzling monstrosities--an ironic sort of coffin, if it so shall not please.

I have a big car with wings therefore I'm better in bed? Really?
Belmondo drove a tiny car, Wells. As did every man in almost film of the French New Wave. And I drive a fucking Mini with a retro-fitted diesel that runs on corn oil, and I get laid plenty.

Vernon Hardapple says ...

Lex G. Your douchiness is only slightly surpassed by your patheticness.

You couldnt find an acne-ridden, STD-laden, obese prostitute that would be willing to sleep with you.

There's a reason why your so lonely, Lex. Why don't u put on some that quality music you like (you know, like Limp Bixkit, for example) and try to find a way to work with those very limited resources of yours to find a way to pay for some therapy.

comment #15

LexG says ...

It's "Bizkit." And "you're so lonely."

And psychiatry is a pseudo-science.

Just like environmentalism.

comment #16

Vernon Hardapple says ...

They're called typos, you mouth-breathing, low-brow Cro-Magnon.

And tell me, oh infinitely wise and scholarly one, what are your academic/intellectual credentials that have helped you come to that conclusion regarding Environmentalism?

Would u care to put said intelligence (or your really quite ridiculous lack of one) up against that of every major Western country and the worlds leading institutes of higher education and scientific bodies and foundations that would dispute that asinine diatribe of your idiot self-flagellation?

Yeah, I didnt think so, Lex. It's called empiricism and the scientific method. Compare that with the hyperbolic, drunken ramblings of a man so lonely he is driving himself insane.

comment #17

LexG says ...

More like Vernon Hardon. Christ, dude, you're about as much fun as a fucking cold sore. Though I'm glad you showed up on HE *yesterday* but seem fully versed in the minutia of my existence. Glad you're a fan.

You know, it's funny also how your writing style reads EXACTLY like Wells, except Wells is AWESOME and you sound like kind of a knob. Is this JW's new ironic attempt at commenter performance art? Only Wells would write that first sentence in post 16. But again, he's great and you read like a douche.

But since you know so much about me, you should know I HAVE THREE COLLEGE DEGREES.

You should also know I do not care about anything that doesn't affect me, me getting drunk, me getting famous, or me getting laid.

comment #18

Vernon Hardapple says ...

Well, at least you have your drink. That's one of three.

As far as the college degrees, I wonder from where you received these degrees (if what u say is actually true, which I doubt given that you call Environmental Science, yet lack the brain power to actually dispute all claims to the contrary.), and question how these institutes of higher learning could have oh so failed you. After all, you would think your three college degrees would have taught you to think more creative, more thorough, and with more honestly, rather than yell and scream and defend your backwards, antiquated ideas which don't hold up under ANY sort of academic scrutiny. You're like a bastard child shat out of the ass of Don Murphy. Or, is that a redundancy?

comment #19

Vernon Hardapple says ...

And again, Lex G. what are your ACTUAL academc credentials to dispute the whole of the world's scientific community?

Back up your claim that Environmental Science is so-called pseudo science. Be a man, Lex G. Defend your claim with evidence to the contrary.

Oh yeah, that's right, I'm trying to reason with anti-intellectual. A decidedly pointless pursuit. It's like trying to reason with a box of rocks. And I'm being generous.

Eh, I'd keep arguing with Vernon Doucheapple, but he's getting kind of intimidating and he says he's a real man... I don't want him chasing me down in his Gay Cornmobile.

Wells, come on. Don't front like you're John Wayne (he wore cowboy hats, but not to reserve rooms at film festivals).

We've seen pictures of your footwear... those shoes looked WAY more Tommy Tune than they did Rocky Balboa.

comment #23

Wiggumx says ...

If you're major you can still, for fun, drive a tiny car like that an also pull major ass.

It just takes a real man to pull it off. And that's not because it's economical. Anyone with a bit of a brain cell knows that you should be economical over being showy. Only douchebags go for showy.

But driving a small, economial car is a boon, especially if girls think "It's cute!" and it's a convertible.

Just because you can't pull it off doesn't mean that no one else can. Let it be. No one is driving that car everywhere, every day, all the time. It's a lark.

And, finally, LexG... you think that no other county is being eco-conscious? You are a bigger idiot than I ever imagined. And THAT is a stretch.

There was a Hyundai ad a while back that made the point that men who drive giant cars (Hummers, Escalades, etc.) must be compensating for something they lack -- so the opposite should be true of men who drive small, economical cars. What kind of gearshift does the guy in this two-seater have?

And Massey, yes, the guy was a dick, but that scene in GOOD WILL HUNTING was bullshit. Hunting was a Math genius, no reason for him to know so much about French agrarians in the 19th century and all of that other shit. It got annoying. Pretentiously unpretentious.

Hardapple,

Fer chrissakes, this is HE, and you're not running for political office. LexG has always been amusing and makes a good point. Personally, I welcome the coming Pandemic, eco-collapse, asteroid impact, terrorist nukes, whatever. As long as it's not an extinction event, it can only help the current state of America.

Vernon Hardapple, you better be a vegan or all your environmental preaching is super-nonsense. Meat consumption is way worse for the environment than driving cars of any size.

comment #40

Vernon Hardapple says ...

Ohhh, I get it now!

If one is earnest, sincere, compassionate, and concerned about the planet and it's I'm habitants that makes me a douche.

Thats right. You're all right about me. Just as Ibam right that all my detractors in this post are hate-filled, toxic, ne'er do wells.

And for the record, Bold, I most certainly practice what I preach, and I most certainly don't eat meat. Well, not since 1993.

Anything else any of you hateful, wish-the-world-would-end-to- end-my-miserable-existence-despite-what-might-happen-to-all-the-rest, misanthropic assholes want to add? Feel free.
