BREAKING: Zipcar Stops Sucking Balls?

My wife and I have this private joke where anytime we have to go to Jersey or some other god-forsaken place, and we're trying to figure out how to shlep the kids all the way out there, one of us will look at the other and go: "Oooh, how 'bout Zipcar!?"

Hilarious, right? I mean, everyone knows that Zipcar literally never has ANY cars EVER EVER EVER, unless you book like 4 weeks in advance, and even then, the people before you probably won't bring the car back on time, and the guy making $6 bucks an hour at the garage Zipcar blackmailed to hold their shitty cars who couldn't give less of a FUCK looks at you when you ask if he by any chance knows where the car is and whether it will be back soon and just goes: "Zeepcart?"

I love talking to people who have never used Zipcar before. I was talking to this one guy recently who was like, "Oh, that's interesting - I've heard of Zipcar - it's that car-sharing program, right? So what's the deal, you just walk up to any zipcar on the street and you can jump in and use it, right? Really cool!"

And I said, "No that's not the fucking deal, jackass, the deal is it's just like Hertz except they never have any cars. Quit talking about it like it's some kind of hippie Kibbutznik share-a-car; yeah they pay insurance for you, and gas, but it doesn't matter, because they never have any cars. You can't GET a zipcar unless you go pick it up at 165th street and Lenox Avenue. It blows."

Think I'm lying? Check out their subway ad in the image above: Zipcar, the car for people who don't want one. See?! They're proud of it! Wtf!?

Anyway, I was all set to mock them again on Sunday, when we needed a car for an impromptu Fairway run... However, Arecibo wasn't picking up - maybe due to the snowy conditions and high demand, which always cause the cab companies to show their true colors when it turns 'em into the supply-side fat-cats they wish they always were.

So I went onto Zipcar's site just for a good laugh - and what the fuck!? Check this shit out:

Unbelievable!? 20+ cars available at the last minute? 3 of 'em at OUR garages? And get this: It wasn't just doing that Orbitz-patented bait-and-switch that gives you the finger after you actually try to choose a car...I mean, we actually got one!

What'd they do, get more cars? When did this happen- should I have read some of the spam they're always sending me? Did Zipcar stop sucking balls?
