      - I have seen that one. I enjoyed it. -- nm - Shaun Feb 20, 06:24
- I mock Aquaman a lot, but even that's too much. There's nothing recognizable about the character - Will Hunting Feb 20, 05:31 6

    - I'd like it a bit more if it was green... - Will Hunting Feb 20, 05:41

    - but Danica has more accidents than a 92 year old blind man driving in a parking lot. That has to be considered before asigning blame to him -- nm - Beaker Feb 20, 04:58 3
      - Honestly its a mix of her mistakes and being in places where those things happen. Her best showings are at Superspeedways. -- nm - budice Feb 20, 05:18
      - That could mean that she's targeted way more frequently than male drivers. -- nm - TWuG Feb 20, 05:12 1
        
        Could be....likely isn't. She just isn't a good driver for these cars. - Will Hunting Feb 20, 05:33

When stuff like the Krispy Kreme Klub escapes into the wild, it makes me wonder what idiotic marketing ideas are being proposed that get caught. -- nm - Reagen Feb 19, 20:41 8
