-Oprah Winfrey
I have just stumbled on this site, I like alot I shall become a follower for real. Good work
OK, all previous quotes I could see, or at least see what you were getting at. This one no. Is it that everyone’s a winner on Oprah? If so, isn’t that the polar opposite of investing?
Dead_Cat,
Do you know what happens when you make a comment like that?
YOU GET A CAR!!!!!!!!
Cute little G6s? – I thought you were going to get the UK, not a car. That place is bankrupt so I thought they’d be giving the country away if you assumed the liabilities.
I test drove one of those suckers around ’06/’07 and let me tell you, the G6 was by far the worse piece of shit I’ve ever driven in my entire life. The Ford Fusion was at least 10x better, and the Mazda 6 was 20x. Hell, Saturn beat the dick outa it!
If Oprah – or anyone else – gave me a G6, I’d try to trade it for MSRP cash value ASAP, or worst case, go to the strip club and try to convert to liquid assets that way, er, uh…
I get it now. The G6 is one of those American cars that’s so bad they don’t even try to export them. The hard part must have been finding punters dumb enough to take them away for free. Cue Oprah.
Where I come from if you gave Pontiac keys to a hospitality professional (ahem), she’d slap you.
wait, you really don’t get this? or is dead cat some sort of strange meta joke? and where do you come from? because you definitely missed this one.
