Well, at least it must be less obnoxious than those big black trucks with huge-arse billboards, usually advertising some lifestyle product for unsubtle gimboids, driving around in fleets of three and spewing diesel fumes into the air, as some sort of cocky, defiant fuck-you to all the oxygen-breathing bystanders ("hey, try ignoring this, motherfuckers!"). Are there really large demographic groups who choose to consume a certain brand because the manufacturer cares enough to pay someone to spew carbon monoxide into their air?

Of course there is! Us consumers are mindless, mindless sheep. I'm sitting here drinking my Coca-Cola(tm) which I didn't really want...but the sign said I must....AND YOU DON'T FUCK WITH THE SIGN. Of course, after all this is rammed down my throat, I'll eventually have go spew in my Fowlerware(tm, also) toilet....which the sign -also- told me to buy!

I'm glad someone else hates those motherfuckers too! Any company that gets people to drive around all day, contributing to climate change for the <i>sole</i> purpose of advertising their product deserves my utter contempt.
