Slog - Comments on Biking to Work http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/04/bike_boxes_a_simple_idea_that_could_save Sent by Slog tipper Jen, the (Canadian, sigh) counterpoint to the State Farm ad that had me so riled up last week: Update: Now with new headline that makes sense! (Our Slogging software likes to fill in headlines for us, and, well, it's early.)...

What a guy we can envy. Just follow the sharrows and all the dumb fuckers in SUVs will just give you metres and metres of room. And German girls are hotter than Canadians, they generally bike, walk, or take public transport. It's nothing new here, it's just life. And the U3 runs every 4 minutes.

Totally green-screened, nothing to worry about.

And the smoking pregnant lady probably wasn't really pregnant, either.

So, Canadians advertising execs are just as stupid as ECB.

Congrats on being completely retarded.
