Does Zipper even have a driver’s license?

He’s too stupid to pass the test!!!

Naw, he’d prefer a Lamborghini.

I don’t know about the Mercedes. Mine has been in the shop for 3 weeks waiting for a part to be shipped from Germany. Today they told me it was back ordered.

Hmmmm….this can’t go wrong.

Check out the vintage monitor!

The sad part? I’ve known people this unbelievably clueless & vacuous

Go with a M series BMW.

I recommend a M8 Competition Convertible.

80% of first businesses fail for many reasons. Buying Mercedes before making a dime may be one of them. Also thinking that you won’t have to work much is probably the main one.

love the retro iMac ……..I have one in green……rather Steve Jobs “sage”

Paying for a Mercedes’ with a business plan? Genius!

Show up with a business plan with big numbers and they will show you the Maybach room

Zipper looks like Snidely Whiplash.

And get a load of that 2-ton computer!~

I knew Mercedes. She wouldn’t take orders from any guy, much less from weird ones.

The computer lab at my first teaching gig had several older iMacs like the one shown in the strip. Those things just kept working right up until they were recycled.

I can see where this is headed. As soon as these two find out that they really have to put in some hours, they will drop it like a rock.

Have the chickens hatched??

Sure, get three if they’re small.

I’d get a chauffeur that can handle a stick shift

Are you gonna go and mpw down a bunch of people in line for a job fair with it?

I had the exact Apple computer they’ve used in this strip. It was described as Bondi Blue.

Order a DeLoreon or two while you’re at it!!

Can’t be that great of an idea if they’re only going for a Mercedes. Gotta go for a Rolls-Royce or Lamborghini, at least.

They will want to see proof of income. Preferably an IPO.

Oh, Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz?

My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends …

Sounds as if the boys might well be their own first customers.
