Reminds me of that "Curb Your Enthusiasm" scene.

Sad but I have had to tell him that no one wants to listen to his conversations while working out, let alone with those glasses on....sad when your friends rank on the douchebaging list....where does a mullet fit in?

Why, Northern Ontario, of course ...

Seriously, in Canada this was/is called "hockey-hair" at least as often as "mullet". As such, it is considerably less douchey 'round these parts. You will, naturally, draw your own conclusions as to what this suggests about Canadian culture ...

Does this mean Bono and Billy Ray Cyrus are Canadian?

I've been told that Mercedes has more "higher society" symbolism than BMW...

I seen evidence of this as well.

I've heard that real power players drive Jag- u- ar (not the Ford produced), Astin Martin and Bentley.

I drove an M3 in the 90's and would never own one again. Here in Louisiana the 3 series is most commonly driven by backward baseball cap thug wannabe types. I recently bought the new Volvo C30 Type 2 and have been surprised to walk out and find a couple different Porsche owners walking around my car. There are very few C30's here so it's nice to drive something different.

I'm really liking the C30, it would be a pretty cool car to own if I were still single. How do you like it?

I've heard that real power players don't drive--someone drives or flies for them.
