This was an e-mail from a duck hunting buddy of mine.......
I have a question for you as a Land Rover owner. I have observed after many years of driving in traffic that Land Rover drivers drive slow! I want to know why this is? Why is it that the more expensive the Rover the slower they drive? Also why do these slow rovers which I will refer to as (SR) from now on, drive in the fast lane? I also want to know if when you buy one of these SR’s do they glue the phone to your head, or is it skin grafted on. These are just a few things I was hoping you could help mefigure out.
Your friend,
The redneck!
and this was my reply!!
Dear Redneck,
You have observed narcissism. Which is described as a pattern of traits and behaviors which signify infatuation and obsession with one’s self to the exclusion of all others and the egotistic and ruthless pursuit of one’s gratification, dominance and ambition.
Narcissism is named after the ancient Greek myth of Narcissus who was a handsome Greek youth who rejected the desperate advances of the nymph
Echo. In punishment of his cruelty, he was doomed to fall in love with his own reflection in a pool of water. Unable to consummate his love, he pined
away and changed into the flower that bears his name to this very day.
Land Rover owners are all narcissistic. They drive slow in the fast lane talking on their cell phones to prove that they can, and to piss you off.
Respectfully,
Hank (the Redneck Land Rover owner) |

And I thought that it was just me driving slowly because of my under-powered V8 while using my cell to call the dealership because something is wrong with my truck.
Thank god for mirrors! |
