Anyone still driving an SUV these days better get used to high gas prices.

You know, I used to say that if people had a bunch of kids, it was fine they drove an SUV. But you know what? Fuck that. They can drive a station wagon or a minivan, both of which are far safer than the top-heavy, poorly-designed deathtraps that SUVs are.

And then there's the selfishness factor. We're facing Peak Oil and a potential ice age thanks to global warming, and so many of these people are not only gorging on petroleum, they're smug and proud of it! Hell, I feel guilty that I own a six-cylinder car I bought four years ago, before I fully 'woke up' to what's going on in the world.

Let them walk or ride a bike. It's healthier anyway.
