=v= That supermodel is super cute! What magazines might I find her in?

Ok lets see. No 4 wheeled vehicles so that means no cop cars just police bikes no fire trucks just fire men running around with buckets and who the hells got garbage truck duty. Humm? Im kidding of course. This dumb chick should just skip all 3 meals and die. Stupid people shouldnt breed

Yeah, anti-automobile protests are useless. What cyclists need instead is proper urban infrastructure to support bicycles, as well as proper driver education.

People seem to forget that for every *sshole driver who endangers a cyclist, there's a courteous one.

"_Some_ of you guys" are zero and his "hot" supermodel, a couple of people complaining about our "model's" advice to skip meals -- those are all from the video. The video is obviously mocking the ultrathin supermodel ideal with those comments about skipping meals and it's flying over their heads at about 40,000 feet.

Um, some of us are talking about the DKNY campaign, not the video. Isn't that equally obvious?

[Cyclelicious]

Holy cow, some of you guys are waaay too serious. This is obviously a spoof!

To accept DKNY's low-grade marketing ploy as a valid contribution to society, you must completely disregard the meaning of the ghost bikes as memorials to deceased cyclists.

To make this leap, you also must hold extremely low standards for public activism.

Buy dear, sell cheap.

Yea, DickNY kinda sucks. But this video is funny, LOL!

I'm not going to point out the obvious problems with the video here. [What she said about skipping meals and "saving the world" is really frightening. Saving the world burns up a lot of calories!]

What I will say is that, in my opinion anything that gets people on bikes and out of cars is ok with me.

ride a bike and skip 1 meal, opposed to taking a cab and skipping 2 meals? - what the fuck is wrong with that bitch? is she even aware that she's influencing young girls to adopt eating disorders? between that and the tasteless orange ghost bike mockeries, i say FUCK DKNY.
