People have a love affair with cars that borders on the religious. In some cases, it is a religion. However, as gas prices rise and people get more concerned about the environment, alternative fuels are going to be more and more common. Take, for example, one Beverly Hills plastic surgeon’s idea to run his car off of liposuctioned fat. Great idea, except that it’s kind of illegal.
Also, it’s kind of gross. Seriously gross. I mean, where do you refuel? Do you pull up to the Exxon and just say, “Jam this hose into that fat kid’s butt? I’ve got a long drive.” Do you swing by the truck stop, eye the truckers waddling around, and then call one over for a little emergency surgery when you need to boost the fuel tank on your car (which I’ll now call The Fatmobile)?
It’s not like you can find big buckets of old lard just laying around on every street corner… oh wait, McDonalds has to empty their fryers somewhere. Never mind. Just transition from human lard to curdled vegetable oil, Dr. Craig Bittner, and you should be fine. You can take your old human fat and use it to make soap.
