Last night, while getting mindjobbed by the season finale of “LOST”, my friend Paul told me about something great he found on the Interwebs. It’s a real photo of a Seattle yuppie lady taking her kid for a walk in a stroller, but she’s on a damned Segway scooter.

What is she thinking? Is she that lazy? I mean, I’m lazy, but c’mon! But man this is a sign of the times, is it not?

  • Yea, I saw this earlier this week.
    As a resident of Seattle, I am deeply ashamed and apologize to the rest of the country.
    Deeply.

  • “dumbbitch” you got that right.

  • At least they are getting fresh air. Better than cruising your baby in the Hummer, or the Explorer or the Prius. Segways are cute compared to cars.

  • Yeah, way to go. Nice job of keeping your kid safe.

    Knucklehead!

    Government supervised selective breeding is long over due.

  • I don’t think you can technically call it a sign of the times, because she’s approximately the only person who uses a Segway.

  • Americans are getting lazier and lazier by the second

  • Here in NY, cops are getting a fleet of Segways. Does anyone else think this is a gross waste of taxpayer dollars?

    A skateboard would be more cost effective and useful, plus you wouldn’t look like a dork.

  • NY is a waste of tax-payer dollars, which is why I left that place 10+ years ago and never looked back.

    As fas as the “mom” goes, this makes sense. This second generation of whack-job “parents” is worst than the previous. We are now 2 generations into what I have noticed as huge moronic mommies and daddies who take their kids (I am talking 2 years old!) to R-rated movies because they refuse to get a babysitter. They take they’re 6 year olds to BARS and I am talking the BAR ITSELF, not the eating establishment area, the BAR where people are drinking and smoking and cursing at the Mets/Braves games, oh – and they give them quarters so they can sit up at the bar to play those video games up on the bar itself. Yep, these kids think its cute to find the x-rated strip poker and the parents seem to think its even cuter. And dont tell me its where I live, its not only where I live. Its anywhere I go in this nation and I travel quite often.

    People have generally become rude, they drive like idiots on the road, they act like idiots in person, they think nothing of inconveniencing others, they believe they are free to do whatever it is they want at any time as they somehow forgot the word responsibility and replaced it with “rights”, and they blame the government for their ultimate failure. Oh, and as right as they know you are – when you point out what they’re doing to annoy you (like leaving their barking dog out all night) they can only tell you to go to hell. Nice people. Two full generations of a-holes now.

    People have become IDIOTS and these idiots are breeding more idiots and so on. We’re headed down, down, down and fast we’re going – fuel by idiot people like you’ve got in that photo in your article.

  • You guys are funny. Put one baby in a huge SUV to drive it 10 blocks and NO one would even comment. This lady chooses not to take the car. Yet because she chooses to get an assist on the Seattle hills, everyone goes bonkers. What’s wrong with you people?? Do you walk or bike EVERYWHERE? If so, great. If not, then shut up.

  • i walk or bus EVERYWHERE, and you bet your sweet ass i would comment if someone ran a story here about 1 baby, 1 huge SUV, and 10 blocks.

  • bpm2000: I’m working on one today, just for you. ;-)

    Also: It’s good to have other Seattlites on the site. Word!

  • Seattle Shmeattle…Portland is where it’s at!

  • White and Lazy

    You see me walkin’
    My baby
    I know they’re all thinkin’ I’m so white and lazy,
    Think I’m just too white and lazy
    Think I’m just too white and lazy
    Can’t you see I’m white and lazy?
    Look at me, I’m white and lazyy
    I wanna roll with
    My segway
    But so far they all think I’m too white and lazy
    Think I’m just too white and lazy
    Think I’m just too white and lazy
    I’m just too white and lazy.
    Really really white and lazy.

    Size of my ass here is B-I-G
    I ride my segway just to go pee
    MC Donald’s – my favorite MC
    Keep your Subway, I’ll have Quarter Pound with Cheese
    I never exercise, to the contrary
    You’ll find that I’m quite stationary
    My cottage cheese butt is really cherry
    But my flabby arms might be scary.
    My BMW is all totally pimped out
    Got me parking taking up two spaces
    I’ve tried pie from a thousand places
    Pumpin’ old tunes from Ace of Bases
    Contribute to the global warming haze
    Stuck in traffic – I could sit for days
    Talkin’ on my cell phone, drivin’ all dazed
    Cuttin’ people off with my middle finger raised
    Ain’t no time that I’ll ever run
    Not even if someone stole my son
    Might ride the segway just for fun
    Or if you give me a sticky bun.
    Baby Got Back is my favorite theme song
    People complain when I’m wearing a thong
    I’ll wear any lycra outfit you bring on
    ‘long as I can conceal the tampon.

    They see me roll on
    My Segway
    I know in my heart they think I’m white and lazyy
    Think I’m just too white and lazy
    Think I’m just too white and lazy
    Can’t you see I’m white and lazy
    Look at me, I’m white and lazy
    I’d like to roll with
    The baby
    Although it’s apparent I’m too white and lazy
    Think I’m just too white and lazy
    Think I’m just too white and lazy
    I’m just too white and lazy
    How’d I get so white and lazy

  • Obviously, her illegal alien nanny was busy demonstrating that day.

  • Yeah, it’s a fake.

  • The outcome of the battle may well depend on the hope he can inspire, regardless of the odds. ,
