"ALLAH FUBAR!!!"

Ok, I'm taking even the title from Michael King's article, but it can't be beat!! He points to Wizbang for the video, but it really is funny as hell!!!

The ad, a hoax viral ad not unlike last year's Ford Ka web ads that depicted a cat being beheaded and a pigeon being smacked into the street, is making it's way across the internet. The spot shows a man stepping out of a house in a nameless cosmopolitan European city and getting into a black VW Polo (a European-only sedan, similar to the American VW Golf). After driving the Polo through the city, he stops in front of a sidewalk cafe packed with diners. Inside the car, you see that he is a suicide bomber with a bomb vest on and a detonator in his hand. Outside the car again, the bomb detonates, and is completely contained within the car. A muffled "whumpf" sounds as the car remains intact. One diner
looks up at the car casually.

The captioned tag reads, "Polo. Small but tough."




So priceless, even the better half laughed out loud!!!
