"Rolling Coal"

From Slate:

Forty-five second YouTube clips don’t come any more American than “Prius Repellent.” It starts with a camera angled from the passenger side window of a truck, pointed at the namesake Japanese hybrid car. After 12 establishing seconds, the cameraman moves and points out the back window, where viewers can read the ominous decals:

?PRIUS REPELLENT?

At 23 seconds, the engine revs and the viewer finally learns what the arrows were pointing at. Smoke pours out of dual stacks, right in the path of the Prius, which retreats into the rear view. The truck’s passengers share a well-earned chortle.






Sadly, I've seen this in Alberta, too. (smh)

I'm sure some dirtbag loser out there will eventually do it here, too. He just won't get as much approval from his dimwit buddies than he thinks he will.

Things are different here. We like our clear, thin air to stay that way.

Typical. Republican dildos advertising to the world that they are ignorant assholes. Fortunately for me I don't live around these kind of idiots. While I do live in a red state, most of the Republicans breathing my air are of the yuppie scumbag variety, and have long since priced the dumbass rednecks out of the neighborhood.
