Spoilers

I had a car pass me on the drive in today. It was just like my car, only it had a spoiler. I thought gee, what a manly man it must be driving that car...

Mind you, I have no problem with spoilers inherently. If you're a Porsche owner, and you're cutting loose on the autobahn, you're gonna need that thing. No problema. However, if you're the owner of a Honda Civic, living in South Minneapolis, and you weld the tail fins from a 1950's airplane to your trunk, then you're a jackass. Especially if you've got a giant plastic decal that says "Honda" across your back window. They're just not necessary, and they look dumb.

Granted, I've never been a big car guy, so maybe I'm just missing something, but I've never been afraid to say hey - that looks incredibly stupid, which is all I'm doing here.

And let's not even talk about the spoilers I've seen on minivans. Are you kidding me?

Here's what I'd like to see... take the car above, with it's massive spoiler, and add two or three more spoilers on top of that. It'd be ridiculous, but then again it already is, so why not be impressively ridiculous? You'd be the Red Baron of spoilers!

"Dude! That guy's spolier's spoiler's got a spoiler!"

Matt and I used to joke about doing that to Mike's car... heh.

Anyway, in conclusion I'd just like to say that I'm rubber, and you're glue, and anything you say bounces off of me and sticks to you. Thank you, and goodnight.
