Scent of a Geek AND Does this car make me look teh Gay?

[thebitterguy]

Amusing thoughts;

At Baycon, Rose took to wandering down the aisles with a big can o' room de-odorizer. Orange scented. It turns out that GoOru Mark dislikes Lilac scent, while I adore it, because I reminds me of home.

Anyway, it seemed like a fairly odd thing to do. Perhaps slapping each of the attendees would have been more respectful (or just charging them $5 to root through your overstock, eh?). Or just making sure the hall was well ventilated enough to prevent overheating.

That, and we needed more Torg. Dammit.

A Certain Someone thinks wanting this car makes me look gay. Apparently, he's not as in touch with the queer subculture as he'd like to think, since this listing of cars from Gay.com tends to include cars that could put the smart car in the back as a spare, or really expensive ones. Or Volvos.

Feh. I'm Cheap, I'm Straight, and I'm Here to Stay.

You go, girl! *snap* ;D

I don't think the car would make you look gay. I'm not so sure about the fez, however (shades of Akbar and Jeff).

You're just mad because Rose made you wear a pine-tree air freshener around your neck.

The Smart Car looks cool. 0-100 kph in 20 seconds is NOT cool. Count that off in your head. You'd need on-ramps a mile long to get up to highway speed.

Well, since I doubt it'll take 20 seconds to go from 80 to 100, I should have no problems. It's just for the commute, not real trips.

If that fails, I put one of those big tail pipes on it, since they MUST make things go faster.

I bet if you did, the car would tip right over. Those big tail pipes weigh a ton. It would be like something out of a cartoon: *wrench, wrench* "There! It's done!" *stands up* *watches as car slooooowwwly keels over*

What you need is a spoiler. And flames painted on the sides. :D

I couldn't find any info about whether or not car seats are workable in these things. Well, it's a two-seater, so I didn't expect them, but still. I wonder if they tested them at all in that regard?
