I take it you've never driven a finely tuned automobile. It's quite the fun experience.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (2 children)

I actually have but I felt embarrassed as hell each time.

I’m not against fine tuning and efficiency. I am against A: “LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!!!” And B: any sort of aggressive driving on public roads.

If there were such a thing a really ‘nice’ car that was ‘luxurious’ inside etc., but looked like absolutely nothing extraordinary outside, then I might buy one (in the alternative universe where I had lots of money to blow on new cars).

It's pretty funny because personally I don't care at all about comfort and very little about looks. I just want something that's fun to drive. If I had the money, Id get maybe a Subaru BRZ, it's not too powerful but lightweight. But I live in France so I dont need a car either way

In France all you need is cheese, wine and a haughty woman.

I don't drink alcohol either and I am the haughty woman

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Bravo! I don’t drink alcohol either and I am not a haughty woman!

Power to you.

Well I for one hope that you manage to get lots of money (or enough to be completely comfortable) in this universe.

That’s very kind of you. I’m not starving and have a secure roof so I’m doing better than many others around the world. I am certainly not complaining in regards to that.

When I have day dreams of winning millions of dollars my first thoughts are typically “how could I help others”.

I would have to actually play the lottery though, which I’m not inclined to do.
