Was listening to a commercial go on and on about how great it is to drive yada yada. Like the freedom is nice and all and you can be much more self reliant. But they do know everyone drives right? That there's not an infinite space to build lanes? Traffic?
Wtf? Are they using those terms to push back against the rising tide of people realizing how much driving sucks?
No those are my thoughts on it being in car hell (Florida). But they go on and on about the pedals and ohhh isn't it just dandy to drive, things like that. If it's overcast I'm fine with biking 5ever but the heat has made me literally sick before just trying to play mtg at a somewhat close by lgs. So yeah kinda essential in America's dong as of late. That and while Pinellas is decent with their buses, it could be MUCH better. Can't wait to get back to massive two shits. Though I doubt it'll be any better, at least I'll get free college (eventually)
the best is all the suv commercials where some chad just decides he's gonna make his own path through the {desert, mountains, forest, praire} and veers off the road as if the vehicle wouldn't immediately be totaled and he gets arrested or shot for trespassing
9001% testosterone man that definitely sired corpse husband talking over an SUV or pickup or semi (penis size is correlated to how deep your voice is and how much you can HAUL) going through treacherous or rugged terrain or seemingly impossible feats like catching a front wheel of a plane in the bed of the truck. Or a sedan or 'luxury' car speeding through one of Chynas many ghost cities(I guess that, or it's some dystopia, or they've got a really robust subway system, like a cross between the car tunnels in irobot and midgar from ff7, but not completely dumb because there's tracks instead of of 30 lanes with cars going around 500mph
)
There is never traffic in car ads
I know... I might not have been clear with how I typed my statement.
