I should stay off the intarwebs.

I knew getting a Prius is kind of douchey. Well, not douchey, but probably kind of self-important. Well, maybe not self-important, but it also lumps me in with a lot of whackadoodles and I’ve sure found a lot of them on the intarwebs. I’m not sure why I spent the last hour reading arguments about why Toyota should be sued because you can’t run the Prius with NO GAS, just like it says in the manual. Sure it’s a hybrid, but it’s a frigging gas-powered car. You put gas in, you go. No gas, no go. Pretty simple to me, but there are nut bags arguing about it until they’re blue in the face.

That’s why I liked having a Prius hybrid. I was supporting the new technology with my wallet but I wasn’t telling everyone that I had an ULTRA SPECIAL CAR. Just a Civic with a small hybrid sticker that you’d have to look for if you wanted to see it.

Ah well. The real reason I got the new car is so I could play with it, and I am doing that. And by play I mean commute to work while distracting myself so I don’t think about work. Maybe if I just stream Pandora while I’m driving I won’t worry about all the other Prius nut bags. Which I could also do by staying off that one web site where they all were. So many easy solutions to this problem.
