Default "I can't afford my gasoline" cartoon/song

Sorry if this is a double thread. Don't seem to see it anywhere though. It even loads quick for the knuckle draggin' "dial up" users.

My brother-in-law pointed out that with two men driving a hybrid car with a Yale sticker, the rainbow flag one was entirely redundant.

I feel so sorry for heterosexual hybrid owners. You have my sympathy.

Thank you.

The part in the video of the "good ole boy" thinking the silver Honda Insight is "girly" hits a nerve as I'm certain some rude passers-by are thinking that. In particular is when I'm alread in the rightmost lane on a six-lane freeway, and a large pickup decides to pass me on the right anyway on the shoulder of ramp.

I've made rainbow stickers before and stuck them on unsuspecting peoples cars, normally on the passenger side rear quarter window. I have been known to stick "I'm gay and proud!" stickers on aggresive driver's cars too. Not that I have anything at all against anybody's sexual preference, normally "Type A" drivers are HUGE homophobes. I'm just going for their weak spot while doing the least physical damage.

Either way, I felt ya'll (southern talk) would really enjoy that cartoon. I thought it was a blast!

While looking up songs for my iTunes playlists (finally got a connector to let my Nano talk to my Ford Escape Hybrid), I came across this gem:

Song: "God Bless My SUV"
By: Capital Steps, sung to the tune of "God Bless the USA"

URL to listen/download: http://www.capsteps.com/sounds/suv.mp3

Excerpt...

"And even though I live alone, the car I own can seat 103!"

Sadly, I can't tell from the audience reaction if they actually see it as an SUV owner's anthem, or as the sarcastic, in-your-face "Wake up, America!" anthem it actually is.
