I guess the ads figure that the more we identify ourselves with our crap, the more we'll be willing to buy. maybe the people who market crap are in cahoots with the people who market giant vehicles? and yeah, the table in the van is bizarre. is this for people who spend more time in a car than at home? how sad is that?!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01886668831972641673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7663468186545705233.post-34069955784365392122008-04-14T09:09:00.000-04:002008-04-14T09:09:00.000-04:00Lordy dont get me started.

The Dad grumbles b/c he is busy playing video games...???? A grown man?? Oooookay. the girl is busy talking nasty on the phone making fun of someones clothes. the two boys are being mean to each other. But luckily, the magical van will bring them all together. There are TWO screens so that junior doesnt have to go five minutes without someting to entertain him. There is a card table, which is something I ALWAYS wanted in my van, right?? Finally , the family is happy and closeknit , and the daughter learns that her brothers name is Bobby instead of Billy. cue hysterical laughter. I wont buy that van EVER.<BR/><BR/>The other one I LOATHE is the woman with a huge table load of stuff--toys, backpacks, etc, that needs to be fitted in the car. The van maker is like "yep, you need more room". OK, first off, there is the worlds largest stuffed dog, perhaps mom could ask the kids to leave that one at home and bring a smaller one? Backpacks?? Ok how long are those in the car, five minutes while you get to school?? It just irks me. Can we no longer walk outthe door without eight tons of stuff?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7663468186545705233.post-42759872484407756722008-04-12T19:42:00.000-04:002008-04-12T19:42:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
