It can't be easy to ignore the sat-nav

For those complete fuckwits that insist on mounting them *right* in the middle of their eyeline.

First car mfg to fit armaments gets my vote.

I'll rebuild it with mercury myself.

Like those that did it originally.

I don't recall them entering the hatting trade either.

Asbestos is not mercury.

Are you American? You panic like one... Look out- a fluorescent lamp!!

Yes-

It's caused by :-

applying power

or

making the chips do some work

or

just pushing it over the bleeding edge. (sic)_

chuck it out of the window and don't bother with another one.

You won't get it repaired, you'll get someone elses' that has it's own latent psychosis waiting to be triggered.

Seeing as most ant-anti Windows rants-

Usually seem to start "- I'd happily use OSX/Linux/Other, but as a Gamer I..." (need Windows XP) Then the last part about booting into Windows 'to do some work' seems a bit arse-backwards. Especially on a tablet.

Continuous upgrades?

You need them when the base product keeps breaking.

Stable products don't need them as much... Hmmm.

1960s Beetle?

Rare as hen's teeth and twice as dear- post 70's beetles are a lot faster and much more fun. And they stop too- sometimes facing the right way round. No airbags or anything soft are included, but the radio slot is standard.

Beetles are seen as cool cars- unlike anything Ford.

And also-

When the knobbly pint pots were still around, the tall slippy ones that are used today were known as schooners too...

To use the rhetoric of the twats they gave the cash to-

On the other hand-

If you can't search for it, no-one can find it.

Unless they already know where it is, they won't see it....
