HIPSTER RUNOFF

Yall, I just saw this amazing new transport vehicle. Was thinking about trading in my lime green VW bug for it, but then I realized that it is a car created by the popular web band CRYSTAL CASTLES. I remember when I posted a picture of Trapped in SuburbiaBro wearing a CRYSTAL CASTLES FAN CLUB branded shirt. Kinda like their logo. glad they are 'branching out' to be more than just musicians.

I think seems more progressive than a Smart Car, and probably saves more energy. Not sure if it has solar panels on it, or if it comes with USB ports, but still might be nice to have as a 'weekend car.'

I read on a Wall Street Blog Journal that the Auto Industry is 'in the shitter' because they don't have enough solar cars and because fossil fuels aren't being turned into car gas any more because the Arabs 'got greedy' after the religiously charged attacks on America in the early 2000s. Think it's kinda risky that the Crystal Castles, LLC is headed into the auto industry, but maybe they are going to try to get a bailout if they prove that they can revolutionize the industry?

Will u buy 1 of their transport, all-terrain vehicles? Or would u rather buy a different 1?

Interested to see if 'hybrid cars' actually work out, or if we will all just end up walking and/or riding fixed gear bikes.

Whenever I see a smart car
I think about being an ass hole who drives one
and then getting in a routine car accident
where I accidentally die
because I drive 'a lil cartoon fggt car'
just because I wanted 2 'save the environment'
and had the expendable income to 'prove that I care'

TrappedInSuburbiaBro has been named one of Barbara Walters' 10 Most Fascinating People of 2008. While other candidates like Barrack Obammy and Michael "Water Buffalo" Phelps are more famous than TrappedInSuburbia Bro, there are more tweens & teens on the planet who can relate to TrapedInSubBro. He represents an internal and external struggle 4 all moderately alternative ppl on our Earth.

Recently, TrappedBro created his own Crystal Castles Fan Club t-shirt, but in an effort to remain progressive, he let the world know that the t-shirt was 'fake.' The shirt is a think piece. What will HRO's Emerging Bro of the Year do next?

This picture is a picture that represents the power of branding. There is a common lifestyle brand called PUMA. One bro merges his personal brand with Puma by wearing their shoes. The other bro had a Puma logo tatted on the back of his neck. In order to strengthen your personal brand, you must be willing to take risks and make bold choices.

Should I get the Nike/AmAppy/HypeMachine/Sparks/PBR/Chili's logo tattooed on me?

Will 2009 be all about merging your personal brands with corporate lifestyle brands?
