Jeff's Purchase

I could fucking kick his fucking ass!!!  Look what the fuck Jeff just bought today.

Yup it's white just like this one.  We made an agreement last year that we would all stop buying $100k cars and go hybrid or not drive at all.  He got his fucking huge ass bonus last week and bought this today.  Seriously, I can't fucking believe it.  Ok so I'm more jealous than mad.  It's a hot ride but I don't know where the fuck he is going to park it.  I can say fuck on this blog, right?

Wow. Global warming, anyone?? Seriously, when the fuck are these gas-guzzling, exhaust-spewing EGO VEHICLES going to get slapped with the 50% environmental impact tax they (and their owners) deserve? It's disgusting.

There, I'm off my soapbox now. Thanks for indulging me. (But I still think it's selfish and disgusting).

[foggy]

You know, up to this very moment I thought this was a cool blog. But honestly? If you're about this ridiculous car... if you are even a slight bit jealous of someone whose ego (or penis) is so small he has to over compensate with this piece of shit. Christ. And of course the best part is the truck bed in the back. What a fucking joke.

[Mikal]

Just don't drive it around, Jeff!

[closetconundrums]

Is the back seat big enough? =)

[Uncle Zoloft]

Oy!

Purchases like that are a sign of aging.

On the bright side a white vehicle is easier to clean.

As to saying f#ck on your blog: Honey "it's your blog and you'll flog what you want to!"<---sung to the tune It's My Party

[Cooper]

Haha, yes, the Hummer is really not good for the earth, but it's definitely hot. I'm really jealous!

[Sean]

what a bunch of judgmental freaks.
who cares what he drives? how does he treat you (and Nate)?
Must we only be friends with those who are in lock-step with our own thinking?
I say Right On Jeff! You worked hard, were rewarded, and got what you wanted. What's the big deal?

[JasonM]

Funny post. I think you can say fuck, but I'll have to check. And how much money do you guys make, anyway? Now THAT's something to be jealous about. I mean envious.

[Taylor]

Just tell him not to park it too close to the beach. Global warming caused by SUV's like this are melting the ice caps and will increase ocean levels by 20 feet. Jeff is either a Republican asshole or he hasn't got the balls to follow through on what he knows to be true. Sure he can spend all his money on himself. But I wonder how much he gives to the HRC campaign for gay rights?
So are you really going to ride with him in this??? Seriously, I hope you refuse to.

[Sean. Spelled the Right Way.]

Everytime I see a guy in a Hummer, my first reaction is "Oh, buddy...sorry about your tiny dick."

Everytime I see a homo driving a Hummer, my first reaction is "Nelly power bottom overcompensating. Probably a small penis too."

I'm just sayin' is all.

[larryfilou]

LOL
Americans ARE freaks after all.. ;)
I can understand US citizens buying cars like that, no matter what - what I CAN'T understand is to break a promise made to a friend and to the world...
So some of the comments are really getting things the wrong way around...
Cause, though I believe the constant drop of water breaks the stone, it's no use insulting someone but reasoning IS
By pretending he has a small dick only because he buys a big car (which is quite probably the other way round: big dick = as much success as small penisses [if not more, seeing how many bottoms run around nowadays] = big money = big car if he so chooses).
What annoys me more is, that he does it though he appeared to have thought about ecological topics before.
His change of mind is annoying. And shows a small brain or low memory capacity rather than anything about his dicksize. Which is a fact though in comparison to your guess about his dicksize.
Anyone feeling like discussing this... Just let it come... ;)

[Stephen]

Ok first time commenter but been reading for a while. Man what a bunch of green party flamers, lol. Sorry but dishing a guy because a car he drives. The only thing I dont like about that car is the way it looks, I would want an origional hummer. I drive a 1987 chevy old pickup that gets 11miles to the gallon and drive everywhere I go. So get pissed at me not at that beast, lol. Oh and have a good day. Have fun with the sex in the car, cant do that in a hybrid..comfortably.

[Jason]

I am over SUVs now but that Hummer H2 is hot. You boys must be making good money to have so much $ for a car, especially considering that you guys are buying a home.

Now you guys gotta make sure your new home has enough parking for three vehicles (two of them trucks). I know it's not an easy task in San Fran.

[bob]

If it's really the environmental impact that you're worried about, check out http://www.terrapass.com... you can offset the greenhouse gas output of your vehicle by buying a sticker for your windshield, the money from which goes into clean energy projects which are certified to offset the annual output of your Hummer (or whatever).

And yeah, we wanna know: is there enough room in the back seat? :)

[jared]

Wow! I didn't think this post would cause such a stir. I love that you guys are all so passionate about your position on this topic.

In his defense though Jeff doesn't have a small penis or small brain or a big ego. He is a super sweet, hot guy that I love. So yes it was a stupid purchase but we've all made a stupid decision in our lives, right?

He wanted a car that he could carry five guys and five to six surfboards to the beach along with a bunch of other gear. In his mind this was the answer. Nathan and I beat him up over it (verbally) and now we have to live with it. At least for the next 24 months. as it turns out, I found out this morning he leased it for two years.

As far as how much money we make. I used to make a good bit of change until I switch to a socially responsible job. Now I could never afford a car like this. Nathan drives an old old beat up truck so that should tell you something. Jeff is the only one with money around here and sometimes, like this purchase, he is stupid with it and sometimes, like the purchase of our house and his retirement, he is really smart with it.

[jared]

And yes, there is plenty of room for all 3 of us to fuck each other in that car!!!

[jared]

Oh sorry, one more thing. Did this topic really overshadow the hot guys I posted in the beginning. . .

No one commented on them . . .

[Sue]

Yeah, the hot guys got me thinking,'oh no, not another sex toy that will be a problem'. Ya got me there.

I just hope he is not going to use the H2 to commute daily.

I don't know about you, but I intend to say fuck whenever I please on my blog.

[jared]

Yup Sue. All three of us use public transportation to work. All three of us barely drive anywhere thats the funny part.

[Rick]

the idea of even getting this is crazy. Im disturbed how people can even buy things like this that lead to global warming and our enviorment. There are plenty of other hot looking cars and trucks out there that are enviromentally friendly.

saying fuck in your blog do it ... its being who you are. Don't ever stop that thats why you got this blog.

But really talk to him about the purchase. Most times when people do see a guy in a hummer its the idea small dick, or what an ass buying a vechile that smogs the planet.

[Phil]

Don't the army use them? LOL ... I'd think that that is the way to go. Could have gotten a smaller car.

I guess if I had the money I would go out and spend and extremly large pile of money too :P

Perhaps he wants to give it anway *cough* to someone *wink*

[Bill]

I'd like to blow up the next gas hog SUV that has a "Support Our Troops" ribbon on it! It is because of shits like this that we have guys getting killed in IRAQ just so that we can have access to the oil we can then waste to power up these monsters of the road. Too bad Jeff's brain size wise doesn't appear to match the size of the Hummer or humper!

[ohwolfman]

I think you're all missing the point; it doesn't matter if the car is eco-friendly, or hot, or whatever. Here's what you said:

"We made an agreement last year that we would all stop buying $100k cars and go hybrid or not drive at all."

You two made an agreement over something as simple as a car. Less than a year later he breaks the agreement. There wasn't even the discussion of, "Honey, I know we talked about this, BUT....", it was just a complete disregard for an otherwise understood agreement.

In my eyes, a broken agreement is worse than a broken promise.

My 2 cents.
Wolf

[Eldrin]

It's a great car, though I'd never buy one for a few reasons.

1) Have you seen the price of gas?!

2) I have better things to spend that kind of money on. HD LCD TV and PS3 anyone?

Anyway, I think the people bashing Jeff for buying an "ecnomically unfriendly" car and calling him a Republican because of it shoudl be the ones being bashed. He earned the money, and he has every right to spend it on what he wants. In my view, Jared's only gripe should be about the broken agreement.

On another note, I wish I could drive a hybrid... The money saved on gas alone would be awsome, but I can't fit in any! Buying cars is the only time I hate being 6'3". The only ones I can are the hybrid SUV's, and they get the same as my Pontiac Grand Prix, so I'm sticking with the sportier car!

[David]

Since everyone else already had their say about 1) the environmental impact 2) Jeff's obviously huge salary 3) Jeff's lapse of judgement, then I will only add that yes, the guys are hot. I always wonder if they are sometimes supposed to represent you three, like it's Nate on the left and Jeff on the right and Jared at the bottom of the frame.

[John]

Jared --

I live in SF as well, and good luck to Jeff to find a parking space for that thing! If anyone who reads this blog doesn't know, parking is a premium in SF, period! I used to have a Ford Explorer and it sucked to park in this city! I got rid of it and walk or take public transit anywhere in SF! Congrats none the less to Jeff!

[danny]

OH NO!!!! I'm so disappointed! you guys seemed so cool in your blog but i really have to question your intellegence. Jeff is what's wrong with american culture. Why the hell does he need a HUMMER? do much off roading in the castro? plus its hard enough to park a hyundia accent in SF how the hell is he gonna park that. there's a war going on and gas prices are going up and he buys a fucking hummer! it's gross....i still love you though i'm just heated. americans can be so ignorant!

[Mike]

What ever happened to the lost art of minding your own fucking business. One Hummer is not going to destroy the environment as we know it... I love my gas guzzling SUV. Right after driving my SUV, I chop down a tree, have a steak,put on my fur coat and smoke a cigarette. Damn, I Love America. Tell Jeff to have fun in his Pimp-mobile..play on playa..he's going to get more ass than a toilet seat.

[Naked Boy]

I told my neighbor today she should get rid of her freaking hummer. She is 80 lbs. a stick and has to be behind the wheel of this huge gas guzzling thing for what? Status? Get a Mercedes convertible, you get status and help the environment.

[JasonM]

Liked the pix with the title, suggesting that THESE were what Jeff bought. Or who. Works for me....

[BgDkUWS]

Love your BLOG and, nothing personal, but Jeff is a raging asshole and, unfortunately, so are you if you're jealous. What a selfish, uncool purchase.

[SoakingWithBubbles]

Wow! People are so vicious here! What is done is done. I'd just enjoy the ride. If the hummer isn't doing his daily commute, the damage is minimal anyway. How surprising, you've gotten more comments on this silly topic than your sexploits. :-D

[kendal sims]

I drive a prius. I live in Jersey City NJ, just across the river from manhattan. What I say to you hummer drivers is "I'll race you to the gas station. if you can get there on one tank w/o running out of gas, you win.

Where is the gas station? Columbus, Ohio.

[Robert N Lng Bch]

Interesting that of all the posts, this topic would get the most comments. No offense to hottie Jeff, the car screams small penis, which I'm guessing is not the case given your apparent satisfaction in past 'jared gets fucked' posts . . . happy butt fucking in the back seat . .

[David Scott]

American's love their cars. It's a fetish, really. And guys are, perhaps, the worse when it comes to this fetish. Disposable income or not, and its my money and I'll do what I want with it, does not hold up today. Environmentally, these huge SUV's are draining resources and that's a fact. However, we are told through ads on TV that you are nothing, you won't get this guy (or girl) if you don't drive this or don't have that. We fall into this trap every time. You made a promise and that promise was shattered by the typical male ego. That is more disappointing. But gay men have proven over the last 20 years that they are just like straight men: show them a sparkly lure, and like a fish on instinct, it will swim right to it. Even though, maybe, in the back of their brains, they realize it's a deadly trap.

[David]

i'm not going to ascribe any moral value to the purchase of one of these megavehicles, but aside from the environmental impact i think the conspicuous consumerism aspect is the thing i find most wrongheaded. there are other SUVs out there with as much or more interior space but the hummer is just more flashy and obvious. its more of a style choice than anything else. here in houston only rich ladies drive them. i don't think i've ever seen a man in one.

[Fred Turpin]

Jeff's use of brain power in making this stupid choice reminds me of something I recently read in a novel. The character said that this guy had a brain so small that if you put it in a bird, the bird would fly backward.
It's oil sucking cars like this that make us dependent on foreign oil. Any true patriot would never buy something like this. For acts like this, we have to send guys into Iraq. Way to go, Jeff!

[madabandon]

Jeff is a loser. End of story.

People who drive SUVs should have to pay a "pollution premium" yearly.

Who but the most insecure and careless person would drive that thing?

Yikes.

[jared]

Despite his lapse in judgement, I love Jeff. I'm having a rough time letting you all berate him while I just stand back though. It's funny. I feel like I can call Jeff an idiot because he is family but when you guys do it I get real defensive and want to tell you to fuck off and leave him alone!

What I don't understand is how you all can pass judgement on someone you don't even know. What you are doing in your actions is far worse than anything Jeff could do by driving that car on an occassional weekend getaway.

[jackamo]

Well I like it. It's so much better than a chastity device. heeheehee :)

[David Scott]

Jared, I don't think you see the point of these rantings. And I'm surprised that you thought there would be no backlash. But, sure, it's great you are defending Jeff. You're suppose to that, but what is the purpose in owning such a vehicle -even if he drives it on a "occassional weekend getaway," if not just say "look at me." Is his ego that fragile? From a psychological POV, that's why guys buy these cars. Anyhoo, having disposable income is great, I guess, and being irresponsible with it is his choice. But, there are cheaper and better ways to show the bling, without everyone think what a small penis he has.

[gogo]

Can't a person just like big cars? This whole association thing with a small penis is stupid. Some guys just really like cars. Some people like buying clothes. Some like buying expensive gadgets. Others like buying art. Is a person's purchase always associated with a body part?

[SparkyMICH]

Jared,

Four comments here...

1) At least he bought an American vehicle (General Motors owns Hummer).

2) If you are in the market for a hybrid, the best out there is the Ford Escape hybrid. I own one and LOVE it!

3) If you are seriously considering buying an Escape hybrid (or any other Ford, Jaguar, Land Rover, Volvo, or Mazda vehicle) let me know and I can get you the discount on the Friends and Family plan.

4) Don't you just love the name HUMMER -- A gay man must have been involved here somehow.

Interesting, isn't it, how certain things get picked up on and not others?

Would I be pulled up for my new PDA purchase? No, even though electronics components are filling up 3rd world countries as we speak.

What about the clothing buyer? they pay the Chinese kids 2c a day/hour (can't remember what time period it is). But no-one pulls them up on that.

What about the coffee that we drink daily? It's usually purchased at ridiculously low prices from underpriviliged nations as it is.

It's really interesting that people have focussed on this $100,000 car/SUV/whatever, (yes, I'm not a car boy) when they wouldn't focus on other injustices based on smaller purchases. Keep an eye on your own purchases before you worry about another's. And even if you -have- to say something? For God's sake, base it on some facts and for the love of all that's good and wholesome, don't make personal attacks! It only lessens your credibility and the likelihood of someone listening to your argument.

and, out of interest, isn't it possible that Jeff would like his main men to be riding in comfort and style, as well as actually getting those people to the beach? Yes, it's a status symbol, and it might be more than you or I could really afford, but provided there's a rationale (and not an unreasonable one, 5 surfboards is a big load) behind it, and it gets used for that reason, I don't see a problem.

My partner needed to tow heavy loads (up to 2 Tonne) occasionally, so we bought a Nissan Patrol. We couldn't afford to keep 3 cars, so the Patrol became his daily driver. Would you criticise us for that decision when we had a clear reason for needing -a- car to do that? There were probably others we could have bought, but we didn't.

Don't throw stones when you live in a glass house. (which has always confused me, because that's a stone right there)
