Ironic that a middle eastern guy has to have his car sent to the UK to have the oil changed.

i think they have a point about it being a total waste because that is true, what he does with his time and money are no matter to us except that he is contributing to the death of our planet in a big way, which we are all responsible for and showing us all how he spends our gas money

> Airport workers at Heathrow also blasted the owner’s excess after watching the car get the royal treatment on the runway. One commented, “This car doesn’t have a carbon footprint - more of a crater”

The irony of a guy who works at an airport saying that, where a 747 burns one gallon of fuel per second, is almost too much for me to absorb. I hope that guy gets run over by a Prius at which point the irony might actually cause my head to explode.

It’s one fucking car. They act like it’s single handedly destroying the planet.
