Just because I've been almost run off the road by oversized SFV's more times than I care to count:

You're just hungry for the commissions off the motherfuckers.

Well, I don't like 'em either; not so much because of the arrogance of their drivers, but because they fly in the face of my inherent frugality. At $9.85 per pound, the Cadillac Escalade is a lousy deal. The H2 is only $7.80 per pound, but the H1 wagon is a whopping $15.45 per pound! I'm sorry, but I'm not paying more than $5.51 per pound for a hunk of metal and plastic that gets me around! (Honda Civic Coupe)

Gods, no...think of the incredible noise from all the squeaking that would develop!

The wolfmobile was a relatively thrifty $4.65/lb

Not bad for a midsize sedan. (I'm actually having a hard time grasping that my car cost less per pound than swiss cheese. I don't think that I have ever made this particular price comparison.)

All right, I admit it. I like watching those Behind the Scenes type shows.

Well, this just proves how hopelessly unhip I am...I really, really enjoyed that little piece of work, Wolf. Now I want to know more about the history of other typefaces...

My God, you're right...he'll probably be fired tomorrow.

However, I found it interesting that he, too, notes the injustice inherent in a lawsuit over hot coffee...
