So there are two things prevalent in our modern world that I really am not keen on due to a combination of ignorance and disinterest.
One is football, the other is cars.
Don't get me wrong, I think automobiles are impressively functional machines. But when it comes to horsepower? transmission? brands? That's another clueless story of mine.
I know there can't be knockoff cars like knockoff purses, but in all honesty, a perfectly shiny and new "low-ended" car looks just as appealing to me as a gorgeous shiny "high-ended" car.
This is why, when I saw the following vehicle as I was getting gas the other day, the first thing that went through my head was
"oooooo... pretty, shiny, yellow car!"
=D
In middleschool English, I've learned that various contextual clues can aid in defining an unknown word, or the "status" of a particular vehicle in this case.
So in this instance, the clues that were presented to me include:
1. The three exhaust pipes all symmetrically aligned in the middle.
2. A man walking past me going into the store whipping out his iphone to snap a picture...
3. Another man hollering, "SWEET RIDE" as he pulls out of the gas station.
these facts confirm my suspicions that it indeed is a pretty, yellow, and expensive car.
So what's the next step? Of course, it would be to make a conjecture about the driver.
The following possibilities came up: a bad@$$ mafia member, elite socialite, wealthy buisnessman, a racecar guru.
Drum rolls in my mind as the driver's door swivels out....
and out steps this scrawny kid...
in a worn highschool sweatshirt,
backwards cap,
and flipflops.
(and to this day, I still have no clue what type of car this is.)
