#60 Toyota Prius
February 7, 2008 by clander
Over the years, white people have gone through a number of official cars. In the 1980s it was the Saab and the Volvo. By the 1990s it was the Volkswagen Jetta or a Subaru 4WD stastion wagon. But these days, there is only one car for white people. One car that defines all that they love: the Toyota Prius.
The Prius might be the most perfect white product ever. It’s expensive, gives the idea that you are helping the environment, and requires no commitment/changes other than money.
The Toyota Prius gets 45 miles per gallon. That’s right, you can drive 45 miles and burn only one gallon of gasoline. So somehow, through marketing or perception, the Prius lets people think that driving their car is GOOD for the environment.
It’s a pretty sweet deal for white people. You can buy a car, continue to drive to work and Barak Obama rallies and feel like you are helping the environment!
Some white people decide to pull the ultimate move. Prius, Apple Sticker on the back, iPod rocking, and Democratic Candidate bumper sticker. Unstoppable!
There are a few ways you can use this to your advantage. If you are carpooling to an event or party you can always say “can we take your Prius? my car doesn’t get good mileage and I feel guilty driving it.” And bam! Free ride! 
Also, if you see a white person in a Prius you can say “wow, that’s great to see that you’re doing something for the earth.” The white person will feel very good about themselves and offer to drive you home, to Ikea, or drop you off at 80s night.

[...] Toyota Prius [...]
Check out the music video for IN MY PRIUS, an original “rap” by the Casual Mafia!!!
Last year, I was a design student at an obscure art college. One of my instructors was this typical, fixie-riding, aging hipster. In one of our classes, we were talking about demographics, imagining the typical clients we were designing for. One of the characters we imagined was the typical cellphone-toting Yuppie, male, early 30′s, graduated with a business degree, lives in a snazzy part of town, and so on. Basically, the kind of guy that typical white hipsters would rather not be, because they’re too “creative”. Anyway, the discussion turned to, “WHAT KIND OF VEHICLE WOULD HE DRIVE?”
Stupid me, thinking I could be candid enough with these people, said, “He probably drives a Prius. You know, the type of guy who makes a lot of money but fancies himself a liberal idealist type. He probably thinks, Oh by driving this car, I’m making a difference.”
And then there was silence. My partner in this project, a white guy, was giving me the dirtiest look. The instructor was obviously irritated.
“Actually,” he huffed, “Now that you mentioned he drives a Prius, that gives me an entirely different image of this guy. He probably wouldn’t have a business degree. No, this guy wouldn’t drive a Prius.”
Then White Guy Classmate comes to the rescue. “He probably drives a sports car, like a Lambourghini. Ha ha ha.”
“Yes,” says Instructor, “That’s more like it. Ha ha ha.” Then they go on to describe more stereotypes about The Yuppie, stereotypes that typical “creative” people like to fantasize and make fun of, being their complete opposite. “He’s probably a lawyer now. OR AN ACCOUNTANT. Ha ha ha.”
After that day in class, my instructor was visibly cold towards me. Discussions now seemed to be solely between him and my partner, with me relegated to the background taking notes. Any comments or contributions I made to any discussion or brainstorming session were just met with empty stares. AND, despite being a consistent student throughout the semester, I was given an undeserved “C” for that class.
I noticed that at the end of every post in this blog, there are tips, presumably for non-whites like me, on how to use their knowledge of Stuff White People Like to their advantage in building relationships with white people. There are also notes on what to NEVER say or do, lest I be alienated. I learned the hard way that these pieces of advice should be taken quite seriously.
Our company cars are Prius. I can honestly say that they are the most awful cars ever designed! What were Toyota thinking… Nonetheless, I never pass up a chance to drive it :b
I’ve owned a Prius for the last four years and it’s the most reliable car I’ve ever owned. And it was nice when gas was nearly four dollars to be able to go close to 500 miles on ten gallons of gas.
I’m so glad that you love your car and saving gas. But design wise, they really are a very ugly vehicle and dangerous. They are so quiet many people have actually walked out in front of them and been hit. I’m sorry, I still would never be caught driving one or even riding in one.
ALL YOU’ALL HATING FAGGOTZ CAN GO SUCK THE DIKZ. PRIUS RULES, FUCK YEAH!!!!!!
I love white people
Sorry mike (forgot the “i”), you’re in the wrong place to find potential gay singles. Please go to a gay single web site and I’m American, therefore you have little rights compared to Gay men in Europe. My home state Cal. is notably liberal, except a majority of voters approved an anti-gay marriage bill. +
I think you have all forgotten that this is a fun and funny website. It’s a joke. Go join a hate or activist group with these tirades. Leave the comments for more jokes, not seriousness. In short, lighten the FUCK up.. all of you.
It’s also important that white people refer to it only as “The Prius” and NEVER a “Toyoto”.
“Prius” synonymous with “Politically correct”
The mistaken belief that you can pick up a turd by the clean end.
HAHA! I like that. Will use.
Wow…the Prius is no more a reflection of my lifestyle than your truck is a reflection of the size of your penis.
I’m a woman, a mother and a wife. I drive a full sized Ford F250 4×4 truck and a ’67 Chevrolet Camaro RS on the weekends, both with V-8′s and both American made. I don’t have a penis and I don’t have to show off for anyone. I drive what I like just like you do, but I’m just safer in my truck than in a Prius. It’s a personal choice and until you pay my gas bill then it shouldn’t matter to you. Why make a comment about a man’s appendage based on what he drives? Personally to me, it seems like a guy with a small penis would drive the extremely effeminate looking Prius. Just saying…
That was great. Touchee.
NO SELF RESPECTING WHITE PERSON WOULD BE CAUGHT DEAD DRIVING THE PRIUS.
THE PRIUS IS A FAG CAR,ONLY FAGS AND LIBERAL PUSSYS WHO TREMBLE AT THE SOUND OF AL WHORES VOICE DRIVE THIS SICK LITTLE TURD CAR.
MEN….REAL MEN LIKE CLINT EASTWOOD DRIVE TRANS AM’S,CORVETTES,PORSCHES AND FERRARIS.
I AM SICK OF THESE LITTLE FAGOTMOBILES WITH THEIR APPLE STICKERS AND OBAMA WORSHIP DECALS…PULL ALONGSIDE ONE AT A LIGHT AND YOU’LL BE GREETED BY THE MOST LIMP WRISTED QUEER BUTT PIRATES IMAGINABLE.
THE BULL DYKES ALSO LOVE THE PRIUS,WHEN THE ARENT SHOVING THEIR FIST UP THEIR FLAT CHESTED GIRLFRIENDS CUNT,THEY CAN BE SEEN DRIVING THIER PRIUS TO THE NEAREST DYKE RALLY.
putz
caps lock is not cruise control for awesome, contrary to popular belief
…said the Wrong King Of White Person.
awwwww, its assholes like you who make me all the more happy that i’m a dyke! a cute 20 year old one too, not a bull dyke. Funny that you mention fisting, I’m just going to assume that your fixation means that you have always secretly wanted to be fisted by your [father/brother] as it has already been speculated. Happy Fisting!
ps- Homophobia is usually only expressed by repressed gays themselves who are too weak to face themselves.
Perhaps you should seek professional help.
In fact, for the sake of humanity, please do [or else nobody will ever like you. ever]
Okay look whilst writing that seems ‘really’ funny what is real funny is that your gay bashing ‘red neck’ comment has done nothing but open a serious investigation, into the fact that you Father may well have been your brother.
Plus the whilst the Prius is not great, it’s a good ‘white’ car, and on that note a fine replacement for the Saab. I have also noticed that you seem to be taking a keen interest in the car’s that the “MEN” in your town drive….. need I say more?
lol its like how white people need to show they have a gay friend lol wow
I thought white people LOVE public transit, the urban areas are running with buses, trains and taxis. They expect poor or non-white people to take them or ride a bicycle (the new way to get around). Don’t live in Southern Cal. then, you’re gonna complain about how HOT and smoggy it is. +
Whoa! Off your meds this week I see…
yup, your white. the inbreed kind, but still white.
He’s prob da general kind (aka-Kroger’s or No Thrill) that shops @ Wholefoods for things to shove up his man-ginal so he can feel better about himself.
I rather have a car that drives well, and ca handle anything you throw at it than an ugly piece of engineering failure.
You’ve obviously never owned a Prius. It’s the best car I’ve ever owned. And I can go over 500 miles on less than 10 gallons of gas.
