There’s so many depressing layers to that joke. Like a sad, sad capitalist onion laughing at its own rotting core.
haha,
unnafordable education is funny
haha,
fuck them kids
To be fair, there’s a good chance that there isn’t much of a future for kids cuase you know … gestures to everything
A car is cheaper than most colleges.
That car starts at $110,000 USD, about the same as in-state cost of attendance in Michigan where the mustang is made and Nevada where Shelby is based
This ad seems aimed at people who think you can still “work your way through college” without debt.
The Micheal Jordan meme has entered the chat.
Crazy how college is so expensive in the US that your parents gotta start saving 20 years in advance.
(Im guessing this is the US and also seeing this banner just gave me that thought)
Yay Capitalism!
The real problem is that college is over priced. Again you people keep focusing on the wrong problem.
It can be both at the same time. They aren’t mutually exclusive.
Just to cut off the rage bait. This would have to be at least a 4-5 year old sign. They stopped selling the GT350R in 21 I think. So this car is not readily available to buy anymore. And it’s worth even more now. It’s just a silly joke. There’s like maybe a nine hundred GT350R’s in existence. I would rather the Mach1 with the track attack package. But I enjoy my Gen3 Coyote in my 2019 GT. I barely drive it as it is and usually take my eBike everywhere. I only have a eBike because of spinal nerve damage. I can go for hours on it. Where a normal bike wears me out by the first hour.
This picture is almost 10 years old now, definitely from the beforetimes
The most narcissistic generation of parents yet.
There’s a lot more to unpack here then it being a car ad.
“old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in” is a completely foreign concept in modern society.
On the part of the company as well.
If your customer’s kids go to college, they’ll grow up to earn more money that they can spend on pointless expensive cars in the future.
But we need to chop down that tree for firewood. Not because they’re cold, but because they like a nice pile of firewood.
Future not matter, only current fiscal quarter matter.
That’s a proverb I heard many times from Russian acquaintances.
Why do you hate freedom?
Ultra-individualism has been a disaster for mankind
This is so tone deaf.
On the contrary, this speaks directly to their target audience
Fry: Sorry, I’m not here to buy.
Car Dealer: I understand, and it’s wonderful that you don’t care whether anyone questions your sexual orientation.
Fry: I care! I care plenty! But I just don’t know how to make them stop!
Car Dealer: One word: Thundercougarfalconbird.
What sharp wit those writers had. Futurama will never leave my cadre of favorite TV shows.
That was the most OP writing team ever
Didn’t they have multiple doctorates on that team? Like north of double digits despite there only being like 20 writers total?
Three Ph.D.s, seven masters degrees, and cumulatively had more than 50 years at Harvard. I wont hold Harvard against them though.
Ugh… Harvard…
Boomers and GenX whose parents paid for their college.
Or who could afford college with “a summer job.”
Or those who didn’t go to college, and bought a house soon after getting a “professional” job out of high school, and wondering why more lazy kids aren’t doing the same
The Mustang has been the car of choice for mid-life crises for a long time.
Corvette is mid-life crisis, Mustang is what enlisted military get
Ah I thought that was the Dodge crew.
Nailed it. I visited JB Andrews when my best buddy was still in. I had a good chuckle at the parking lots where every 3rd vehicle was a mustang.
21% APR just for you!
Alternatively: Die wondering why your kids don’t talk to you
That’s probably the worst ad I’ve ever seen.
So anyway, I’m buying foreign.
That’ll be 10 billion dollars environmental tax please. Gotta protect against these polluting eco sedans and EVs
