The Prius Explosion Experience

[claybird]

Nope we've been sticking to our guns despite the *many* requests to switch to a Hummer. That's probably been the number one response actually to our project -- "Why not blow up a Hummer instead". But that's not the plan.

Plus, this whole thing got started because our friend Paula (the girl in the video) has the Prius -- we want to blow up Paula's Prius. It's waaay funnier to blow up her Prius than in my opinion *any* other car out there.

Seeing a Prius fly off a ramp and explode just has a certain beauty to it.

HEXCELLENT! HEEEEXCELLENT!!!!

O.K. I can spare a few bucks to your cause.

Didn't you watch the video? That Prius has some serious cajones! Actually it's not going to just go off the ramp straight, we want to give a true Hollywood off-axis twist! We think the Prius can do it.....but again we're breaking new ground here so who knows what'll happen.


And thanks for the donation -- every dollar gets us closer to the goal!

Hmm .. you said $30k to pay for the Prius. They don't cost that much, plus you don't blow up new cars! And you said it was your friends Prius, that makes it free, she did challenge you to blow up her Prius right? So new goal is $70k!

[claybird]

Actually a fully loaded Prius is $30K...and she's not so much giving us the car out of the kindness of her heart as much as in exchange for a briefcase full of cash.

[dеiтайожни]

Well that's stupid then. She *bet* you that you couldn't raise enough money to blow up her car and film it. And if she loses the bet, she get's a briefcase full of money to cover the costs of a new fully loaded car...

Screw the Prius, I bet you can't raise enough money to drive my hummer into a sheet of drywall. If you can, just give me $80k for a new fully loaded truck! I hope I don't lose!

I'll pay a $1000 if you load the interior with some worthless politicians

[claybird]

She didn't bet us that we couldn't do it -- we came up with the idea and she said she didn't think we'd be able to pull it off...but offered to sacrifice her car if we could.

This all started as an idea to make a short, big budget movie....while we were drinking. It's like how you always come up with all these great plans at the bar but never follow through on them...we're actually following through.

[dеiтайожни]

Sounds like a bet to me. Not much of a sacrifice, is it? More like, I'll pay you $15k more than your car is worth if you give it to us, so we don't have to go looking for another one. I'm all for destroying new prius', but budget wise and common sense would tell you to get one from the junk yard, or steal one. Donating to buy somebody a PRIUS, of all cars, is not something I'd like to do.

My donation money would be better spent on a crackhead, at least I'd get to see a cool dance and know the money wasn't wasted!

[claybird]

Well you're partially right. We could get a used one cheaper but then we wouldn't have as much of a story -- it's more fun to blow up your friend's car than it is to just grab one off a used car lot. We need story and characters.....and Paula talking about her car is by itself hilarious to us. If you click on her head on the website you can watch a clip....or if you're lazy you can just go here:

...it's not a waste -- you'll get to see a Prius jump off a ramp and explode. Dancing crackheads are great for about 20 seconds, but this is something you can watch over and over.....timeless.

I couldn't agree more. But, buying your friend a new, more expensive vehicle than she previously had is not funny. Having your friend lose $15k worth of a vehicle and having to walk is hilarious. I'd pay for that, but I couldn't enjoy the video knowing everything worked out in the end for the prius owner.

[claybird]

While I agree the domain name help-us-screw-our-friend-over.com is funny, I think our friendship might be damaged if we just blew it up and said "see ya".

Here we go again.

Hey man stay away from Moab for the fall trip. If not you will feel very sorry. If you get anywhere near me Dennis, you will be sorry.

Karma will getcha man.

Alec,

Your threats of tickling me bring the funnay.

Moab or Rubicon. I'll be there to see my friends.

They are my friends more than yours. I've done them no wrong. Because BEHIND their backs, I talk about them as friends.

Can you say the same?

P.S. I find your mourning process inappropriate and offensive. Please seek help man.

[DennisAJC]

As for the AEs Alec, you have the most enemies here. It could be anyone of the many members you attacked during your unstable/bipolar moments.

Good night Alec and good luck with that.
