Little (Soccer Moms) should not drive pink Hummers

Of course, these are among the people that stand in front of the paper towel dispenser at the gym and take twenty or so sheets of paper. To dry their faces. Oh there's a regular towel for the other stuff, but the face requires PAPER towel and lots of it. I could go on and on and on. What gives? It's like there's no connection between consumption and waste. Or maybe there is, and they just don't care. These are the people that have never been beyond the city limits, never ridden a bike, never worn boots (true story, ask Cara!), never smelled a forest, never had a callous, never given a damn. These are a the people that need a field trip to a landfill, maybe, or a good old fashioned clearcut, or a contaminated site, or a feedlot, or a strip mine. Just put down that bubble tea, recycle the cup, and step off the pavement! Sadly, I have no confidence this would make an impression. Call me skeptical. Rant over.

Large burly white men shouldn't drive jungle camouflage hummers either! (by the way, we can still see you despite the clever camoflauge. It might be the chrome spinners)
