Silly catturd.
Cats can't drive.
Marginalizing Felines. PETA has been notified.
Going after those with non opposable thumbs is just low hanging fruit.
Lol.
You mean those old SNL skits with the cat driving aren't real?
That was back when SNL was actually funny.
Moderately funny :) It seems to have gone down a little each year. (although, if i watch a lot of skits from the first few years that I thought were hilarious back then, I don't think they are so funny now)
A little? After Chris Farley was let go in 1995 the show stopped being even remotely funny. Not that it had been great even then. But for the past 25+ years SNL has been unwatchable garbage with a cast of sub-par, open mic night “talent.”
Really. It was funny back in the 1970s. Not much since.
During the Seventies, I thought so, too.
These days, I'm not so sure. It might have been just me.
I stopped watching that crap years ago. It devolved into political attack non-comedy for libtards.
I am going to have that little jingle in my head now for the rest of th day. 🤪😸
Ah yes, Toonsis the driving cat. Of course it was real.
https://archive.org/details/tooncesthedrivingcatepisode2martians try not to laugh… I dare you.
Dare accepted, and I'm sorry to report, I not only didn't laugh, but I thought it was pretty lame (but I never thought those bits were funny back when they ran, what, 30 years ago?)
In Elon's self driving car he wont have to!
Um, cats do drive. Dogs too. I saw it with my own eyes.

what about toonses?
That post is sort of like "growing thousands of acres of corn to make ethanol which produces less energy when burned than the energy required to produce it is a great way to "reduce global warming""
Classic government - convert food into a fuel additive instead of using it as food.
Subsidize a crop enough that it makes a profit, then come up with a million bullshit uses for it that are ultimately worse than even eating the stuff (a little corn is fine, but making it a primary staple of your diet not so much, too much sugar, and we put it in fucking everything...)
The corn grown en masses in the USA is barely food. A little bit of like original native corn would be good, what is grown today is just sugar and fiber.
Don’t forget you have the privilege of replacing the battery every 10-ish years at 8-10k a pop. Oh, and never get in a fender bender because cost of repairs are through the roof as is the insurance on an EV. Do NOT forget to never live somewhere it floods because your lithium battery is going to catch fire and your local fire department is not equipped to manage the flames. This is one of their worst intentionally bad ideas yet. Don’t get me started on solar panels for your house….
And contribute to CO2 by all the mining needed and electricity generation and etc. You are sooo green!
Supposedly the diesel & other power sources that run the equipment to mine sufficient to quarry out and process all the ores to extract the material needed for a single battery is far in excess of what a regular vehicle would use over the course of its life.
Marks getting fleeced by criminals. I might almost feel bad for them if it wasn't for the smug self-satisfaction at being robbed.
More environmental impact building a Prius than a Hummer too. Hippies are stupid….and occasionally dirty.
to be fair, CO2 is actually good for the environment... plants love the stuff!
TRUE! But how can the "greenies" pass is off as poison to the planet??
...one of these days, Imma set up an experiment to prove or disprove the "greenhouse effect" of CO2...fill up some balloons with various gases, as well as my own exhalations and regular air, stick the skewer of a meat thermometer in each balloon, then put them in a hotbox and monitor the temperature somehow, maybe with a webcam?
And then pay ~$100 per month anyway, cause electricity cost has been rising up almost everywhere. (if you can charge it at all, right California?)
Right, that’s what no one realizes when they talk about energy savings…
As consumers lower consumption, the utility companies raise prices to offset revenue.
Get a Hybrid.
Great... You will break even in only 195 years. Sorry, my math is wrong. You will have to purchase another $25K battery every ten years plus the actual cost of electricity to charge it. Never mind, you will never break even.
Pffft, with inflation the way it is, $300,000 will be paid off in no time. I mean think about it. Soon people will be making $100 an hour, and that's just at McDonalds.
I'm in Asia, and everyone drives scooters here. I have an electric one.
It was a little over $1,000. The battery lasted two years and I just replaced it for about $400, and my landlord pays my electricity. I charge from a wall outlet.
It's slower than a normal scooter which is a downside. The upside and why I got it is because you don't need a license for these and I needed something to drive in a hurry a while back. It's very range-limited because I need to get to an outlet to charge, which takes hours.
Not very expensive though!
I will be buying gas next time. I do like how quiet and light it is, but I want to be able to fill up as needed rather than always calculating where I can go based on when I charged my battery last.
There's another electric brand here that has battery swap stations all over the place. You just drive up, put your old battery in a slot and a charged one pops out of another, and you go. I think that's a decent way to go too, especially since the battery is the biggest liability of the thing. Not owning the battery is not exactly a bad thing.
Until they decide to take back their batteries, leaving you with a large paperweight. :o)
Very true. It depends on a service
love the catturd logic.........
Don’t forget to buy a house on a coast somewhere
Preferably in a high flood zone with no insurance
Reeeeeee but muh global warming
Fuck cars, they're the biggest scam we ever fell for - and people are just realizing it now as both the cost of cars and infrastructure to support all these cars continue to bankrupt our country and force us to take loans from China to pay for it all. We cannot get a handle on the national debt until we stop subsidizing cars - and that means accepting that this whole idea of creating sprawl instead of cohesive traditional towns and neighborhoods was a bad idea in the first place and destined to make us poor, isolated, and short on time. Cars can exist but we can't build a civilization, and certainly nothing like the America we all remember, when you set your development up as strip malls and sprawl houses, 6 lane stroads and expressways, all costing billions of dollars, instead of building smaller walkable neighborhoods with a mix of parks, small slow streets, local stores, elementary schools and churches like this country built it's entire history up until about the 60's
Sprawl-type development basically plays right into globohomo's plans to both destroy our country and make a profit while doing it. These companies build with publicly-traded corporations which are owned by blackrock+vanguard, they own the highway construction companies, they own the car companies, they own the big box stores and even the chain restaurants. They set this thing up so they have total control, as opposed to a small town which was built by the local people, who built what they could, who carved out spaces for stores and local shops, the baker, the butcher, etc. they built civic buildings often surrounded by or anchored by a central park or square. The houses near the square had very small yards. The streets were small which calmed traffic and made them safe for kids and elderly to walk on. There was no 'woosh' of speeding cars driving by. Neighbors shook hands. Grandma lived down the street, or in a little apartment out back in the garden. Your church was a few blocks away and you walked there and back on Sunday with your family. Kids walked to school or to sports or rode their bikes. That was America.
Just trying to show you how not only has our country fallen in terms of morality and degeneracy, but that we actually now construct what is a degraded environment in which to live - an environment that plays right into the hands of those who hated traditional America and which fosters this self immolation we continue to suffer under.
Until we change the way we build our country we will have a hard time making it truly Great again - the road of globohomo sprawl is the road to hyper consumerism, and whether we're riding around it in a gas powered car or an electric one we are still trapped in the perpetual maze which has been so precisely laid out for us.
There are too many people now for that to work. For one thing, we don't have enough room for all the new towns that would have to be built from scratch.
BTW, I live within walking distance of the church I attend, the school my wife attended, and a corner store and a couple of restaurants. But I have a huge yard.
More than one model can work.
I would challenge you on something, the idea that there's not enough room for all the new towns... or something like that. So do you think the wasteful development pattern of sprawl is somehow taking less land than a series of compact and walkable towns + neighborhoods?
Seems like I'm talking over your head, but next time you walk around to those areas then realize that they don't exist anymore as a development pattern, and you are living in a remnant of a pre-sprawl or early-sprawl development pattern. Now the problem has metastasized and is choking both our towns as well as swallowing up our countryside, turning it all over on a silver platter to the god of Globohomo.
You don't understand what I said. If all the people in the "urban sprawl" had to be moved into separate towns, it would take more room. Small towns traditionally had much larger yards than you see in the "urban sprawl." This was for privacy, gardening, chickens, or outbuildings like a shop or storage building. In my own example, my house is on about an acre with two buildings for chickens, a greenhouse, and an outhouse (not currently sitting over a hole of course). The other yards in my neighborhood are similar in size. BTW, there is actually a butcher within walking distance.
BTW, the "choking" you mentioned is happening up north. Here in the South, there are miles and miles of countryside between towns. Many people in my town hate going to Walmart because it's so far away. There's actually farmland between the Walmart and the town, and there's a super sized windmill farm (one of the largest on the east coast) across the highway from the Walmart and that has crops planted between the windmills.
So yes, people could be crammed a lot tighter than they are, but that's what the elite want. They want people stacked up in high rises and to keep the rest of the land for themselves. I think towns like mine exists currently is close to ideal, and changing the "urban sprawl" to be like this would take more land. And in most areas, it would be farmland that would be sacrificed.
I hear what you're saying - I'm in agreement that it's nice to have these traditional towns. And I totally reject high-rise tower living as inhuman and unnatural. But I think we build sprawl everywhere instead of traditional towns, even with small lots smaller than suburban sprawl or the same size anyway, but the stuff is arranged differently not along collector roads + culde sacs, more on a traditional street grid pattern.... it's hard to explain but maybe this will help, you'll see how an out of control federal bureaucracy was responsible for creating the beast known as sprawl: https://youtu.be/d9vDcfH03gs
Yes, I've known that "transportation engineers" are mostly responsible for the street designs, but that mostly explains traffic problems, not the amount of land used.
Y'know what's unnatural?
Airplanes.

In Europe electricity is so expensive there are no savings. They will solve this by jacking up the price of gasoline so that they are both expensive but the electricity slightly less so. They they tell you "you're saving money"
😀😃😄😆🤣these people are Stooopid…
The $100 is made back up in power bill.
bUt GlObAl WaRmInG!!
An EV is rarely going to provide you a worthwhile ROI. And, since the power is generated by fossil fuels anyway, it's also going to rarely benefit the environment.
However, there are reasons to buy EVs besides these two things. Anyone who's driven a Tesla knows there's merit to buying one if you want that. The whole car feels different, for better or worse. The power delivery is different.
fuck that.
buy a gas generator and charge these fools double to come gas their car up
😂😂😂😂 Just crunched the numbers on this incentive program:
($200,000 + $10,000 + $25,000) - 10% (Bidenomics Green new deal incentives) = $211,500 invested.
$211,500 ÷ $100/mo savings = 2115 months.
2115 mo ÷ 12mo/year = 176.25 years to break even saving $100/mo in gas...
Seems like a good deal......
I generally like Mr. Catshit but this is stupid post. Electric Mustang starts at $55K. There are even cheaper EV. And I wish I was only spending $100/mo.
I spend much less than $100 per month on gas, and my last new car cost a whole lot less than $55,000. Also, the last Mustang I wanted to test drive didn't have enough headroom for me to sit up in it.
And the batteries are still a bad deal every which way you figure it.
Spot On!
Hey, at least the libtards basically transferred their money to Elon so that he could buy Twitter
Best part. Leftists crying right now about Twitter likely had the biggest contribution to Musk's growing net worth. Without them actually buying the cars, it wouldn't have mattered how many subsidies Tesla got.
Bingo! This man wins the prize.
Electric vehicles will be economically viable when our technology advances to the point at which they can be.
We're not there, yet.
