Not sure how suggesting quirky secretaries drive Minis and Beetles is misogynist. Might say more about you than me that you think it is.

What is this? An HUD for ANTS?!

And create a weak spot in my hat? Pfffff.... that’ll be the day. Typically I can fish out a moist piece of belly button lint that will stick just fine.

Some cyclists can keep up with the flow of traffic, some can’t. I am all for cyclists riding in the middle if they can maintain the 80th percentile. I have a mountain bike, not a light road bike so there is no way in hell I can keep up with traffic in even a 25mph zone

X Gon’ Give it To Ya.

Kid is clearly poor, system working as designed. 

Sure I consult CR when buying a car, but it’s just one data set that’s considered in the decision making process.

Here comes the uneducated and/or dishonest Consumer Reports hate
