I (don't) love a nice Hummer

Yesterday I saw a Hummer. Not for the first time, but it doesn't happen every day, since this isn't LA or Dubai. Every time I see one I realize how ridiculous they are. I mean, what were they thinking?

"Parking is a bitch anyway, so why bother?"

"Let's increase national security by letting people drive around in bulletproof tanks!"

"All the money people spend on gas, thus taxes, could be invested in education and health care!"

Later that day I was watching (another rerun of) Sex and the City and to quote Samantha Jones: "I love nice Hummer". Well, I don't think I do. Although I must admit I have a weak spot for the pink ones.

SHOCK DU JOUR

One of the things that made me go "Whut?" today: Florence and the Machine's Kiss with a Fist in Nike's Men vs. Women commercial with a whole bunch of famous people. And her album isn't even out yet! Apparently the commercial features Run by Gnarls Barkley in most countries... which makes much more sense, yes, but still. I'm glad we got Florence! Even though it was a little frightening to hear her voice come out of my tv.

Edit: Found the original video:
