If that's one of those dumbass commercials with "my fast" in it, those commercials suck diddly uck, Flanders.

I can't believe VW, making those teh ghey "my fast" commercials, have ANY amount of creativity or sense in what's funny or not.

uhh...no, its not the my fast commercials.  since your too lazy to click a link I explain what they are.  They take a tuner/ricer car, make fun of it, then destroy it in increasingly enjoyable ways with the last video launching a car with a trebuchet

I got him to not only disregard his own link he posted, but I got him to explain what it was, all without having to do any work on my part other than to say yet again how teh ghey the new VW "My Fast" commercials are.

Somehow, you've got your priorities screwed up.  I won.  And I won big!

w00t!

Not necessarily. You made 228 keystrokes (not counting the no-doubt numerous "backspaces" used) to complete your first reply. The energy spent slapping your keyboard greatly outweighs the effort it would have taken for you to click 1 mouse button.

In the end, you still lose.

Dude, don't we get enough damn commercials in the course of our day that we don't need to be clicking on them voluntarily?

"Oh, come look at this advertising, we always need more ads shoved up our sphincters!"

I loved the VW commercials, thanks. I've only seen the first one on TV.
Gotta love them for goofing on rice boys, and extra props for goofing on the (how do I say this tactfully?) urban lingo.  ;D

Oh, snap.

And now I caused you to count my keystrokes and reply.  I win again!  w00t!

Had I clicked the link, I woulda still replied.  Effort expended?  Same, perhaps more.  You suck-diddly-uck at trying to make this a losing effort for me. ;D

The part where I did.  You're not sucking me into showing you where I did thereby causing more work for me and negating the slack-fu I built up.

I can be apathetic with the best of 'em ;D
