It's the most wonderful time of the year
Ah, it's the holidays. Christmas. Hannukah. Kwanzaa. Whatever your faith, you're getting some loot this December. With the holidays comes those ridiculous commercials for Lexus, with a brand spanking new Lexus wrapped up in a bow:
I guess I'm in a minority here, but I just can't stand seeing those Lexuses with bows on them. I don't know why, but I think it's stupid. I mean, I think it's great to get a car for Christmas, and I sure wouldn't complain if somebody gave me one. But for Christ's sake, don't put a bow on it. It's cheesy. Plus, where do you get a giant bow? And doesn't it flop in the wind when you try to drive it?
Does anyone agree with me? Or am I an idiot? Do bows on cars suck?

You and I have discussed this... bows on cars are AWESOME! Everyone in my high school got a car when they turned 16 (except for me, I was forced to ask cute boys for a ride home)... and all the kids got a HUGE bow on the car. Their rents would pull up to the crub outside the school with this cool new Mustang or SUV with a big bow on it and everyone would squeal! I love the bow on a car, and when you buy me my dreamsicle orange and cream VW bus, I hope it will have a big bow on it!

Yes, bows on cars suck. It reminds of the many of the rich pricks I grew up with that got cars when the day they turned 16, even if they didn't have their license yet! It's like they're shouting "Look, we can give an entire car as a christmas gift!" WTF, sometimes I get socks for christmas. The only thing I can't stand more than a rich prick, is somebody who actively flaunts the fact that they are a rich prick.
Maybe I'm just bitter because I didn't get a car (a 6 year old family sedan, not a shiny lexus, or even a shiny honda) until I was 18 and then had to share it with my brother and sister.

I can't believe it, my co-worker just bought a car for $40428. Isn't that crazy!
