Dude, Did Your Car Just Wink At Me?
February 5th, 2010
I’ll be the first one to admit that I don’t know much about cars, but I am a certified expert at finding inconsequential things to get worked up about.
I passed a new Acura TL in a parking lot and couldn’t help wondering, “What the fuck are you smiling at, Herbie?” I can’t remember ever seeing a sillier front end on a real car in my life. I know Acura’s reputation is pretty good, but if your car rolls off the assembly line grinning, I think you gotta shitcan your designer (who will no doubt find employment at Pixar Animation Studios working on Cars 2) and go back to the drawing board.
I think a good rule of thumb is if the driver’s happy, the car doesn’t have to be. Or stop smiling, it makes you look stupid.
