Alan Alda as Spokesman for Smart Cars

Posted by Van Helsing at November 23, 2009 10:15 AM

Who better to market the wussification of America?

Now only if Alda Alda (MASH) and Ed Begley Jr. (St. Elsewhere) would play a game of Chicken with these Stupid Cars - each racing towards each other at 88 mph.... we could find out if they reach critical mass and are propelled back in time to the 1980s when people actually cared about these two clowns.

If he drives that thing in traffic for a while, he'll be "mashed". Looking forward to it.

I think maybe his partner in M*A*S*H* and total Nationalized Wuss-dome Mike Farrell would lemming along with this quite willingly too!

Actually, you can tell this is Photoshop. In reality, Ms. Alda would be wearing a cardigan sweater and the car would be either powder blue or dusty rose/pink...with an endless loop of James Taylor singing "You've Got A Friend" on the CD player.

Supposedly, these cars have "good" crash safety ratings, crashing them into barriers or some heavy accelerated object smashing into a stationary smart car. Except, for an offset collision head-on collision with a larger car, (as in the previous smart car post) the smart car gets a "poor" rating with muliple injuries. Which is more "real world?" In a real world collision with another vehicle (most likely much heavier) this car would be a death trap. The top of the line starts out at 20 grand. For 20 grand you can buy a nice, Honda, Toyota, Hyundai or Chevy, and have a much nicer and safer vehicle. The tradeoff is the death of polar bears or owls. Imagine a huge polar bear dropping out of the sky and smashing one of these clown cars? There is even a plug in-rechargeable battery powered model. Beter make sure it's charged off the grid. Solar power, wind power or better yet take it over to Ed's house and he can ride his stationary bike and charge it up for you.

No Grecat, you don't understand. From a previous post, troll Hey You Guys explained it all (this was not a joke, either):

"The difference between I for big cars and small cars is small enough that it is overwhelmed by the difference in C for both. If you further reduce C by voluntary choice, the voluntary choice to buy a smaller car becomes better as C x I is smaller. However, the I for motorcycles and pedestrians is so much larger that it overwhelms the relatively low C so that the C x I for both is higher, making them worse risks. Just looking at I and thinking that's the only thing which is important. You also use faulty logic that since C can't be eliminated entirely that reducing C means nothing."

IS ALL THAT CLEAR NOW? (Libs DO love their statistics!)

COOL! Hope They print them out so they can bury them with them. ;-)

I just want to see Michael Moore shoved into one of these...;-)

If HAWKEYE drives that thing he,l need a MASH unit of his down with the helicpters and ambulences and RAIDAR as well

The math is beyond me in some of the later posts so I will stick to slack jawed humor. I actually saw one of my neighbors with his SMART car towing it down the street behind a riding mower. It had had a flat and the spare blew out when he lowered it back down. BTW he was using a cinder block on a skateboard as a rolling jack. I have always described myself as the Worlds only functional techie redneck, I guess my neighbor is an eviro-euro-weenie-redneck.

Were are just one day closer when you can get one of those Jetson-like cars that fold up into a briefcase - except it will fly only if tossed through the air like a frisbee (with driver inside).

Posted by: Winston Smith - Ministry of Truth at November 23, 2009 12:31 PM


Alda's the perfect spokes"man" for these death traps: charter member of the New Castrati.

"Drive one of these and you'll be saving the planet! Especially when you are t-boned by an 18-wheeler and your carbon emissions come to an abrupt (to put it mildly) end. Go get one now!"

Posted by: jc14 at November 23, 2009 12:47 PM


Wussification? From religious nuts who are against tying one on and fucking chicks...right.

You guys have played that stupid "be a Republican or you're a pussy" BS enough. Go to the Bronx in NYC or southie in Boston and see how much of BS that whole thing.

Posted by: brs at November 23, 2009 1:00 PM


BRS,are the tough guys in the Bronx or in South Boston driving a SMART car? NO? I didn't think so. So, shove it.

Posted by: TrickleUpPolitics at November 23, 2009 1:07 PM


As a so-called religious nut, BRS, I am compelled to let you in on a secret. Jesus said narrow is the gate that leads to eternal salvation and few there be that find it. Broad is the gate that leads to eternal damnation. So, when tying one on and screwing chicks: make sure you're having a lot of fun because the wages of sin are death: you will have ample time to repent when you are in hell. You may not believe in Satan, but he believes in you, and he's waiting for you.

Posted by: TrickleUpPolitics at November 23, 2009 1:09 PM


I've already sold my soul to Barry Sotero.

He's so dreamy.

Posted by: brs at November 23, 2009 1:17 PM


Smart Cars are one of those Darwin Awards kind of things. Ultimately, they will take care of the problem.

As a matter of fact, I'd like to see every liberal in the country driving one. Maybe we could take up a collection and buy one for brs. He sounds like he deserves one, don't you think?

Posted by: Jules at November 23, 2009 1:21 PM


"BRS,are the tough guys in the Bronx or in South Boston driving a SMART car? NO? I didn't think so. So, shove it."

Oh yeah? Maybe this New Yorker is some kind of mega pussy. You should point that out to him if you get a chance:

If you derive your manhood from your car, you're a pussy. Sorry.

Couldn't make my case for me any better. Have fun in church.

"Smart Cars are one of those Darwin Awards kind of things. Ultimately, they will take care of the problem"

That requires "belief" in natural selection. Unless you're one of those crazy (i.e., reasonable) conservative who knows evolution is true. In which case I apologize fully.

Posted by: brs at November 23, 2009 1:31 PM


BRS,

"If you derive your manhood from your car, you're a pussy. Sorry."

BRS, I have only one requirement of my conveyance module; it has to be bigger than my dick. And that's asking for a lot.

Posted by: Eneils Bailey at November 23, 2009 1:34 PM


LOL Eneils.

I mean, I like cars and all, especially 70's muscle cars (68 GTO - greatest car ever made). But the idea that following a particular political ideology or driving a certain car or polluting more makes you a man is so friggin' ridiculous.

And no, I don't think being religious makes you a pussy. But being a friggin goody 2 shoes all the time sorta does in my book.

Posted by: BRS at November 23, 2009 1:44 PM


I had a 68 Olds 442, brought it in November of 1967. I don't know much about cars, but the dealership told me they were ordering it with an expressway rear end. The son-of-a-bitch could carry the mail.
And gee, at that time, I thought only women had expressway rear ends.

Posted by: Eneils Bailey at November 23, 2009 2:05 PM


"And gee, at that time, I thought only women had expressway rear ends. "

Rim shot!

Similar car - might be the same chassis, actually.

Posted by: brs at November 23, 2009 2:10 PM


What a hoot brs! What on earth makes you think that conservatives can't believe in natural selection?

Fiscal conservatism has nothing to do with religious beliefs.

You are correct in one thing....driving a Smart Car does not make you a pussy. It makes you either really, really stupid, or tremendously gullible.

In my humble opinion. Chuckle!

Posted by: Jules at November 23, 2009 2:14 PM


Sorry guys but the 427 cobra is the meanest thing put on the road. bras feel free to screw as many trannys as you want. Just remember what a great time you had when your dick falls off.

Posted by: Farmer Ted at November 23, 2009 2:53 PM


Trust and Faith, conjoined twins.
Without the first, you will miss out of a free candy from a perfect stranger who is looking for his lost puppy.
Without the second, you will not be saved by the blood and guts from the perforated Savior of Upper Galilee, Yeshua of Nazareth.
Jesus (the name he adopted when he reached celebrity status in the Anglicized world) may indeed save. But it is Moses who chooses to invest wisely. See who will be better off at the end of a decade.

Posted by: Mustafa Falafa at November 23, 2009 2:53 PM


What did Jesus and Moses drive?

"What a hoot brs! What on earth makes you think that conservatives can't believe in natural selection?"

OMG!!!??! What could EVER lead people to think that!!!! Your incredulity is quite warranted!!!

A. I said this:
"Unless you're one of those crazy (i.e., reasonable) conservative who knows evolution is true. In which case I apologize fully."

B. If you're one of those people who knows that natural selection is real, and that mutation is real, but believes that for some strange reason the changes that these (et al.) forces neccessarily engender do not add up to form new species over eons of time, then you're simply confused.

It's either A or B. And I know plenty of consevative religious scientists who know full well that evolution is real and happened, so this would not shock me in the least.

"Sorry guys but the 427 cobra is the meanest thing put on the road."

SOOOO hard to argue with this....LOVE the lines on that car!!!!!!!!! Never drove one. Gotta do that.


And my cock's fine, thanks. Rubbers work great, contrary to some propaganda going around

Posted by: brs at November 23, 2009 3:53 PM


TheGreatWhiteAmericanWimp can't tellt he difference between childlike stupidity and wimpiness.

Posted by: brs at November 23, 2009 3:54 PM


brs you said what a person drives doesn't make him a man and that's correct. However getting drunk and bragging about how many women or men you screw doesn't make you a man either. I would recommend "Gumball Rally",it's a 70's movie brs, if you want to see a Cobra and a Ferrari go head to head.

Posted by: Farmer Ted at November 23, 2009 4:04 PM


Jesus drove a 67 vette with a 427 and a close ratio 4 speed. Moses, on the otherhand prefered the 60 Chrysler 300G with the 413.
Just cause you asked.
brs; nobody cares. really.

I hear they make great grill ornaments on a Mack truck.

"We need a little Clorox to wash this skidmark out of America's shorts."

How did Uncle Sam get so many skidmarks in his shorts?

This Smart car is cool crossover vehicle...
CAR & COFFIN

brs, come on tell the truth. You're really 14, aren't you, and never been on a date? I can't imagine you know many people at all much less 'plenty of conservative religious scientists.'

All Liberals should drive Smart Cars.... The world will be a better place....


And then Tractor Trailers should aim at them...
