   My first reaction was “this is a joke, right?” Even after following the links I am still suspicious that Doug has somehow manipulated this piece of humor onto the internet, and it is all his doing. But, supposing that it’s real:

   - Reckon the gas milage will be affected?

   - up to four people in a Prius on an extended road/camping trip: you had sure better like the other three, kuz you’re all going to be pretty close.

   - The other day I saw a Prius with a spoiler on the back. (No, I’m not kidding. ) I guess that’s the opposite of this new “Prius Relax Cabin” “liberal geek phallic symbol.”

   - Prius: the new VW Beetle for a new generation.

   I don’t know if I’d want to be neighbors with someone that has a garage that big.

   One word: compensating.
   Porsche sales are gonna plummet, now.

   Ferrari had the Testarossa (redhead).
   This is the Prius Testadicazzo (dickhead).

    M’kay, but “Testarossa” means “redhead” according to every Ferrari video or book I’ve ever seen, as well as my translator.

    What was that children’s book with the giant red dog?

    That popped into my head when this scrolled in.

    Picture the dog chasing this thing.

    Don’t even want to think of what it looks like in the rearview mirror.

    “Prius devoured by Giant Amoeba”

    Or it is a white blood cell and the trip they were on is the Fantastic Voyage.

    I cant find a quick vid link to that 1966 movie but it does feature Raquel Welch.

    Ferrari Testarossa engine…

    

    … so named because the valve heads were red. There was an earlier Testarossa in about 1957 or so.

    I know: they can get Anthony Weiner to do the video commercials for it.

    Sondra (4): that sounded positively obscene. Which of course I favor.

    I think it’s a fibroid sarcoma caused by all the EMF and self righteousness floating around that thing.

    NB:
    red ball = pallo rosso
    red head = testa rossa
