It cost me, like, 200 bucks to fill up my humvee! Normally, it's only 140!

Here's the thing: if you drive a SUV, you are not allowed to complain about the price of gas. I don't care if it goes up to 8 dollars a litre. I don't care if we're getting hosed by the oil companies. You're just not allowed.

I'm watching the local news on one of the Detroit network affiliates for my daily dose of life in the Wild West, and this piece comes on about gas prices. There's a headshot of this 'gas-consumer-on-the- street,' complaining about the hit to his pocket book he's taking since gas prices went all haywire lo these past five weeks, when the shot then pans out: it turns out that buddy is filling up one of those Expeditionavigatorexplorer behemoths that take up three lanes of traffic on a four-lane highway.

You know, maybe if you didn't drive, I don't know, an aircraft carrier with wheels, the cost of filling up wouldn't be so...exorbitant?
