My ex-wife

Fart mufflers & that stupid loop under the rear bumper

ALL OF the above,

expensive wine.
expensive economy cars.
digital keyboards for music.
concept of Government making NEW laws each year.
School tax for public schools.
Why the Earth's core is still molten hot.
Why Saturn & Jupiter's core temperature is not discussed/taught.
How the Gravity geometric center-of-balance between Earth&Moon is on/at the Earth's surface.
How plantlife can survive/flourish with such little CO2 in the air.
Why rotary engine exhaust is more than 1000F hotter than 2&4-stroke piston engine exhaust.
Why Desmodromic valve-trains have not been more prolific on our V8s.
Why JESUS has not yet separated the wheat from the weeds.

well, no need for me to go on about it huh.

Question

22" wheels.

10-foot-tall pickups that look like a good shove would tip them over.

BOP cars with Chevy engines.

Why ALL street rods seem to be Chevy-powered. Wouldn't a small block Ford be a good choice for a '32 roadster?

Dogs dreaming

30-round magazines. Jeez, learn to aim.

Why does a drive through ATM have braille on the keys?

Why do hot dogs come in packages of 10, while the buns come in packages of 8?

Why do 24 hr stores have locks on the doors?

Why do people call it a hot water heater? If your water is already hot, why do you need to heat it?

Cool Well...

Since you brought it up...

Guns you don't shoot.
Cars you don't drive.
Hunting and killing things you can't/won't eat.
Diesel engines that knock and smoke when they are NEW.
Camouflage.
Beautiful women covered in tattoos.

I know...I'm old.

People that drive in the fast lane and go slower than cars in the right lane
People that keep using the brakes going uphill.
People that stock up on bread,milk and tp every time it snows.
