Okay fellas, every time you come back to this window that Muppet commercial starts. Can you fix it? It is kind of annoying.

Thanks for that, the autoplay was getting a little irritating. But not as irritating as this person is to the German traffic police:

Fake story or not, this makes me laugh when thinking about the possible uses of a Muppet Whatnot...

I lol'ed at that link. Reminds me of those people who stick fake appendages in the doors and windows of their cars.

Carrying a fake passenger is most often done by scofflaws to get into the minimum 2 person diamond lane, those High Occupancy Vehicle lanes that magically empty of honest lone drivers during certain hours of the day, to encourage people to carpool, yet with the negative effect of making Rush Hour traffic MORE crowded.

Security catalog and webstores actually sell giant dummies, fake head and fluff torso and limbs, to make it appear you have someone in the car, guarding it from evildoers that would jump you as a lone driver. They look like Ted Turner usually. Haven't seen one in a decade. It would make a hell of a muppet if the mouth were articulated.

Some people will prop a blow up doll in the passenger seat for similar reasons.
