kids are overrated

don't do it. you'll end up like me punishing myself watching prices skyrocket and shed a tear every time i see one on the road

be like my friend. a wife, 2.5 kids and a minivan, but the itr he bought brand new in 1997 is buried deep under boxes, etc. in his garage and the rear wing is being used as a shoe rack. i've made offers in the past to relieve him of it but he swears he's going to be buried in the thing when he kicks the can.

practical = boring.
impractical = best car ever!
