Why do you carry a fire extinguisher in your trunk?
Are you preparing to put out fires started by a short in electric cars?

You loose points if you don't have the following:
- fire extinguisher
- first aid kit (this the one I can't figure out)
- tool kit (ostensibly to fix your car on the side of the road, which isn't really possible with a modern computer controlled car)
- owners manual
- original window sticker
- book, titled How to Live With a Huge Penis

If they are not impressed, you can always change the book with a dirty shovel, plastic bags, empty bag of lime and a handful of empty shells. Works every time.

LOL. 
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Given your placement I would stick a fireman's helmet on top of the fire extinguisher. Perhaps throw a couple of basketballs in the boot as well.

Part of an exhibition by the local artists[^] near where I live.
I think art is the only "profession" where you can produce something utterly meaningless and have people exclaim "wow, that is so profound." As my girlfriend said, psychology comes close.
[edit] And on this page[^] (website by one of the artist/producers):
Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you,
and at the bottom of the page:

Ah, the irony!
Actually, I probably have something to do with that. I once posted a comment on a YouTube video that was, well, let's just say, not very complementary. After that, comments were closed, and that now seems to be the norm.

More pretentious twaddle by talentless twits.
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

But remember the enablers: those privileged with money who use it to buy what they perceive to be prestige. Like so many things, they're market driven and stupidity endorsed.
Meanwhile, back in real life, someone needs to work two full time jobs just to barely feed their family.

With a comment like OG just made, no wonder people close the comments on their web site.

In what way is he right ? He is simply insulting for sake of being insulting.
He does not like what Marc linked to and by extension, good for OG, there are tons of artists I don't like their artwork, but I just don't go out and be insulting and dismissive of their career and work portfolio.

But the portfolio of an artist has to display his level of skill and training, not just (what some might call) brainfart ideas to make money for nothing.
If a painter, for example, can't paint a skillful and admirable realistic representation of a [whatever], then he is not the person to paint it in abstract, and should be scorned for doing so.
It's like, I can play the piano badly, and that might get a few giggles because I'm a nobody where pianos are concerned, but if a master pianist intentionally plays badly, it's hilarious.
And if he intentionally plays eccentrically, to invoke unexpected feelings, then it's genius; but if I piddle about with the keys and invoke unexpected feelings, I don't call it art, because I don't have the skill, knowledge, or ability to back up such a claim.
You have to master a craft, before you can expand it.

That's kind of an art, one that I'm unfortunately not very good at.

I believe it's called "con-art".
I's closely associated with con-stipation (for the victims) and con-vict for the perpetrators).

I'd agree, if the person selling is claiming that something is what it is not, that's not the case here. If someone wants to pay for that 'art', let em. I only wish I could get in on that action.

Exactly! Victor Borge, God rest his soul, was exactly the kind of genius I had in mind.

Why not.
Technical ability is not a necessity for a piece of art to be meaningful (achieve emotional response, which is what art should be) to people;

In about every single word. But that's my opinion, you're of course entitled to your own.

I disagree, he's simply calling a spade a spade.
I just hope the "artist" paid for the travels himself or had a sugardaddy paying it for him.

Why do you care if it is privately donated money? everyone is free to do as he please with his money 
Most work of art were and are paid by patrons[^].
Most governments also give out grants to artists the same way they give out grants to scientists and industries.

I agree with Griff. IMHO, this is not art, this is a colossal waste of time and human effort.
