'Tis the season

Sure, we're in a crippling recession and the economy is in a freefall, so how about buying a luxury sedan for Christmas? Your retirement is gone and you'll have to work until the day you die now, but leather seats and GPS navigation, nice huh? It's cheaper than a house and if you don't have many kids you can effectively live in it. There's no such thing as a car variable rate mortgage, what could possibly go wrong? Just ignore how incredibly tin eared this all sounds at a time like this and buy a fucking car already. It's Christmas. Don't forget the large bow. You can trade it for meat, burn it for warmth, or fashion it into a garment of some sort.
