Nissan's some Bullsh*t

A place to relax and talk about things besides politics.

Re: Nissan's some Bullsh*t

I'm all for cars that automatically do everything for their drivers. I can't wait for them to come out with cars that all communicate with each other, all drive in a single line, in a single lane, going the same, safe speed. That way I can finally get some real speed going in the other lanes without having to slow down for the a$$hat driving the Nissan 55mph in the fast lane!

Face it, 90% of people can't drive. Or, rather, they can, but they choose not to. They'd rather fiddle with the radio, talk on the phone, put on makeup, shave, etc. Consequently, they aren't driving. Either that, or they just don't know how to drive. When they encounter another car going 5mph slower, they slow down and stay behind that car, instead of keeping their own speed up and passing them.

When I get behind the wheel of a car, I instantly hate almost every other person in the world. It's not a road rage thing. I don't get angry. I simply view everyone else on the road as an obstacle between me and my destination. Obstacles that must be avoided and passed.

So, I can't wait for technology to remove the driver from the equation in most cars. That way I can drive my unautomated, 400hp, gasoline-drinking, manual transmission sports car like it should be driven.

Oh, and a word on the "compensation" thing. Being a perfectly "average" guy (according to scientific surveys, it's 6.25"), I'm not really "compensating" for anything, but I also don't have anything to brag about. But, I've always driven fast, nice cars. And, I hear the "compensation" thing a lot.

Take 2 guys: John has 3" and drives a Ferrari 599GTO. Richard has 9" and drives a Nissan Sentra. All other things are equal (both nice, both funny, etc.). What are the chances of John getting a date versus Richard? In my experience, once girls saw whatever car I owned, they usually opened up a bit more. Became more willing, so to speak. So, I'd say that John gets the date and brings her home. Then, she finds out that he's compensating. Bad news, right?

Not so fast. While John is in bed with some woman that just got disappointed, Richard is home alone. Would you rather f**k a disappointed woman, or impress no one?

Oh, and I think less of people whom I deem bad drivers. Literally. I look down upon them in derision.

I really empathize, Prof. I have a very real, very intense hatred of most other people on the road when I'm driving. Its visceral.

Sigmund Freud defined four parts of a psyche; the id, the ego, the superego and the stratego. The Stratego being the highest form of morality and scientific thinking.

If guns are not outlawed, the in-laws will have guns.
