Danica Patrick's Commerical for Boost Mobile

It is amazing to me that some people are so damn thinned skinned when it comes to life.

Danica Patrick, who happens to be not only a damn good race car driver, but a damn good-looking woman. She is currently in a commercial for telecom company Boost Mobile, showing Patrick getting her car serviced by a pit crew wearing skimpy tops, miniskirts and high heels. "What? You think this is wrong?" asks Patrick. "I'll tell you what's wrong. Paying extra to use all your phone's basic features."

The transgender community have gone ballistic. Monica Helms, an employee of Boost Mobile's parent company, Sprint Nextel, and activist for the transgender community was quote in the national media saying:

"Even though the commercial does not specifically make fun of trans people, out of the 300 million Americans, many will use this as another excuse to discriminate and hold back equality for Transgender Americans."

WHAT?????? LET ME REPEATE THAT AGAIN.

"Even though the commercial does not specifically make fun of trans people, out of the 300 million Americans, many will use this as another excuse to discriminate and hold back equality for Transgender Americans."

Is this woman a total idiot? I think so. View the commercial below and let me know what you think.



My quote for the day says it all:

"Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke." - Colonel John R. Elting in his book "A Dictionary of Solider Talk"

TT,
What the hell is wrong with these people? That's a funny commercial, although disturbing on a lot of levels. Danica is hot in the extreme. Like Anna, hot, but she wins. Good post.

Law and Order Teacher: Yes, she is hot; SMOKING HOT (the current generation's words). She could drive ANY of my cars. As for the commercial; PEOPLE NEED TO GET A FRACKING LIFE!
