one of my friends is really evil. he tells me about tv shows, which i then start to watch. as his taste in television generally tends toward the awesome, i am liable to get hooked on these shows he recommends.
this afternoon he told me about a british car show called Top Gear. it's hilarious: three snarky british guys do weird things with cars. i spent almost two hours this afternoon looking at videos from this show.
if you have half an hour to kill, watch these three videos--but, you have to watch them in order. it's made of win: the three guys all buy notoriously shoddy cars from the 1970s, and put them through a bizarre sequence of performance tests. of course, hilarity ensues, and they say lots of snarky british things in the process.
here's another hilarious segment of the show--in which the guys attempt to destroy a Toyota truck. all the ads claim the trucks are so tough, so they see if the trucks are so hardy after all:
part 1
part 2
part 3
i don't drive...but if i ever get behind the wheel again, and ever feel the need to own a pickup truck, i think i'll be getting a toyota. those things are indestructible.
