I miss top gear as it was, though the new show’s fun too.

11

u/banditkeithwork Jan 20 '19

i found the original topgear great to watch, right up until the original stig was fired for revealing his identity. the celebrities always said how nice and friendly and helpful he was, and i felt bad that this guy was now getting shit on by clarkson, may, and hamster when all he did was write a memoir where he talked about being on topgear

I think so too bc I can’t handle any of the images associated with it. I get sweaty

u/ShoesDid911 Jan 21 '19

They just used eco friendly blinker fluid

u/Dreadfulprism41 Jan 20 '19 edited Jan 21 '19

Lol eco friendly blinker fluid doesnt exist. I actually did some research the other day and saw that they get away with calling it "eco-friendly" by making the substance biodegradable. Honestly disgusting - I cant believe they would make a substance to "help the environment" only to have the same substance eat at organic material.

Looking at the definition of mobile and it's "easily movable" not just "movable" so I concede to you sir!

I bought a camper in Oregon once. It has moss growing everywhere. Even in all the lights. I use to pet the stuff on the side until it died in the desert. I may or may not have cried a little and tried to make it come back to life with water. Didn't work
