sat·ire - [sat-ahyuhr]
1. the use of irony, sarcasm, ridicule, or the like, in exposing, denouncing, or deriding vice, folly, etc.
2. a literary composition, in verse or prose, in which human folly and vice are held up to scorn, derision, or ridicule.
3. a literary genre comprising such compositions.
We could probably link the definition of the word satire to this website and convey the meaning much better than by citing the definition. Yes, this website is a joke, Chelfing Automotive does not exist, nor does the Prune XXX vehicle exist. If the vehicle did exist, it probably would not include "a unique patented Gasoline/Mistersheen/CNG fuel system, coupled with a high-tech hybrid drive" as it says on their site. The interior does not feature "Koala-skin" nor are there "driver's and woman's side airbags".
I wonder though... if all of this were true, how might it work? No need to wonder, they tell us! "Automotive couples your waste compressed natural gas (CNG) from your water closet, with regular gasoline, and adds a 3rd ingredient (Mistersheen or Windoleen depending on model). The fuel is then stored in a small sphere (pictured above) that easily fits in your living room, which can then be transferred by bucket to the Prune." Unfortunately, as is often the case, you cannot have your cake and eat it too. "Prune XXX performance will achieve either 190 mph in one burst, or a range of 100 miles, or 0-60mph in 4 seconds. Combining these driving requirements may require in partial undesired combustion of mechanisms." So, take your pick: either fast or far - choose both and you'll likely regret it!
Oh yeah, "Information is incorrect at time of going to press, see your local Chelfing dealer for latest product information, or to demand your free kitten." Enough said!
