Pfffft. This Is How Everyone Drives On Route 128 In Boston When Two Inches Of Snow Falls


When I was a little kid, I had Matchbox cars. They were really cool. They were exact replicas of real vehicles. I had hundreds of them. I’d pay ten bucks apiece for the Rolls Royce Silver Shadow or the pipe truck right now.

Then came Hot Wheels. I thought they were absurd. They were all strange and misshapen versions of cars, with weird stickers and flames all over them.

Anyway, they’ll be in the best shape of their life, so we’ll save lots on diabetes medicine and so forth, and not a manjack of them will live to collect Social Security. Lots of jobs will be created scraping them off the pavement, too. It’s a win/win/win.

Hmm. Give ’em all a squeegee and a squirt bottle to carry along, and they can do the skylights while they’re up there. See? It’s a win/win/win/win.
