Where to start?

So being bored at work as I usually am, I decided to take out my frustrations involving current events on this here blog.

Today's topic is going to be Eco-Terror. That sounds really boring but this is hilarious.

Gareth Groves of Northwest Washington buys a brand-spanking-new Hummer and brings it home to his neighborhood full of environmentally aware people. Northwest Washington, yeah, they like trees and stuff.

Well he parks it for all of the tree-huggers to see and loath. This guy seems suprised that someone vandalized the hunk-of-junk-display-of-stupidity-and-wealth. Seriously, buying a Hummer is like wearing a big sandwich board that says, "I'm stupid and I have money that I don't know what to do with." I digress.

The Eco-minded vandals keyed "FOR THE ENVIRON" on the side of the Hummer after slashing the tires and smashing all the windows. The Fox News report said that they were "two masked men". No one in the whole neighborhood can manage to think up who could do such a thing. Yeah, right. They aren't turning in one of their own. On the flipside, they should teach their vandals how to spell or finish words if they're going to vandalize. Spelling errors muddle your message vandals!

When this Gareth guy (what kind of name is that anyway?) was interviewed he said that he was "...in shock..." and one of his buddies, Andy Sexton said, "I'd say one in five people who come by have that 'you-got-what-you-deserve' look." Well, yeah because that's EXACTLY what they're thinking.

The people in this neighborhood are riding their bikes to the store and driving Prius', they don't want to look at a gas-sucking idiotmobile and imagine what it's doing to their precious environment.

It looks like this guy has a 40 thousand dollar lawn ornament until he can afford to get it fixed. My advice, get it fixed and trade it in for something that doesn't make you look like a huge douchebag. I mean, this guy KNEW that his neighbors would hate it, he deserved it. He probably just bought the thing to get a rise out of the community. 12 miles to the gallon, seriously? Paying for gas that often is more stupid than the fact that it's an off-road vehicle that will never see anything but paved roads and maybe the occasional gravel driveway.

So, Gareth Groves, either find out who did it and make them pay to get your moron-car fixed (you've already alienated all of your neighbors anyway), or move somewhere where people care less about how you're contributing to destroying the Earth.
