Even if I could afford it, that’s not how I’d spend my money... that’s my point. It is just a car; you’re right. I never argued that. But drifting and crashing it is just foolish.

Nah, not the pants, those spiffy pink shoes!

The ad that could have sold it:

Because this paint job is like a bad tattoo - it may be the coolest thing ever for a week, a month, or even a year, but eventually you will hate it and will want to be rid of it.

I think the leash and the fact that it’s a public road are are the main things people are objecting to. If the dog trips or wanders too far to the left, it’s as good as dead.

When you consider how much money some people make swinging a stick at a flying rock (baseball), or tossing a weirdly-shaped ball while trying to bowl each other over (‘Murican football), or essentially playing an upscaled version of ball-in-a-cup (basketball), the salaries of Fields and Barra actually don’t seem…
