We only have to convince people to hate one more car than they already despise.
I like my car, but hate the urban design that makes me have to drive it so much

MODERATORS
A professor of psychology once said to me: "cars are the symbol of the narcissism".
Mmm, yes, owning a midsize SUV, which is one of the most common vehicle types in my country, makes me a huge stinky narcissist.

I swear y'all are rotten in the brain
You think we drive around and sit in traffic because we just like doing it?
We drive because we have no other options. Driving sucks, almost everyone hates it, it's just the most efficient option by a landslide in most of the US.
This place is like a zoo for stupid people, it's great.
