Bumper Sticker Righteousness: SUV Driver Refutes Leather Goods

Oh, San Francisco. You amuse us so.
This SUV here would like you to know that it's not furnished with any animal products, okay? But before you start going into convulsions, it's an SUV hybrid. So...well, it still grosses us out a bit. Not the SUV part, but the part about environmentalists of the Bay Area adopting an even more aggressive moral majority-ish tone, one that worries us. Watch it, people.

Man! I have the Vista Blue Ford Escape too, but I could only find one with leather interior. I still weep for the cows everytime I sit down. And no, sweet sister of mine, having leather seats does not make them easier to clean; chocolate milk stains no matter what.
while commuting to work the other day on my bicycle, i saw a prius with a vanity license plate that read "exxon,ha".
he will be first against the wall when the revolution comes.
There's a jaw-dropping article in this month's SF Magazine (available online) about how environmentalist-progressive guilt/neurosis is so out of control here that it's driving people insane, and into therapy.
SF, you amuse me too.
There is no leather in this car. That's good, because it's so friggin big that we had to pave over all the pastureland the cows used to graze in so I could drive and park it. And it's a hybrid so it gets a whopping 28 MPG - the Polar Bears will get to live an extra 5 years thanks to my generosity!
Now pardon me while I go into Trader Joe's and buy some organic tomatoes double wrapped in non-recyclable plastic so I can kill some more turtles.

I waiting for the day I see a hybrid Hummer
rolling down Market St.
My next car is a Toyota Pious.
Am I the only left here who still eats veal, wears fur and clubs baby seals or fun on the weekend? Where have all the good times gone?
robinsf: no. i still do all those things. and because i dont own a car, and ride my bicycle everywhere, my carbon footprint is still smaller than the raw-foodist vegan anti-fur prius-driving peta schmucks.
mmmm, delicious cruelty.

Kermit the Frog had it right.
Dante reserved the Bolgia 6 of the Eighth Circle of Hell for the Hypocrites.
I hope the self-righteous libtards of San Francisco enjoy their mocking air of entitlement here on Earth.
I dunno, that seems like a car that would hale from Marin. Or can you tell they're from SF by looking at their plate or something? (seriously, I heard the letters on some states' plates indicate where in the state you're from).
