Because he's a silly old cunt, simple as that really. I can't see the point
in even pointing out why some people need cars, why I need one to get to
work, and the fact that cars/motorbikes are my main hobby. He doesn't seem
to get the fact that without cars, a lot of people who pay taxes to keep the
old bastard alive, wouldn't be able to get to work to pay his benefits. I
have plently of arguments for the car, but now I just prefer to ridicule
him. It's more fun as he won't listen to reason anyway
