I think Deadspin is going to give this one to Cyclists by a huge margin.

As both a car enthusiast and a cyclist, I have to give the win to cyclists.

Isn't this one of the times when losing is winning?

I think so

We aren't NEARLY as bad as some of those groups.

Oh, you don't like cars? Hmm. (Subtext: You're a pussy. You're not a man. What kind of man doesn't like cars? They're big and fast and look at this calendar I have of Carmen Electra humping a Porsche! What kind of man doesn't like to spend his Sunday lying on a dolly, working on the ol' Camaro? What kind of car do you drive? I bet you drive a Honda. That's a perfect pussy car. Automatic transmission, right? PUSSY. Pay to get your oil changed? PUSSY. The fuck happened to this country? Men in this country used to enjoy getting their hands dirty.)

That is a really poor description of car enthusiasts. There is no mention of the holy trinity of words: brown, Miata, wagon.

Right there with you. Even pretending for 2 seconds that we do advance, it looks pretty bad (good) versus paleo dieters, but I'd give it to NJ residents just on the bandwagon factor alone.

And getting out of that group of 4 is nothing. Look at that upper bracket...Glassholes, Magic the Gathering, Pitbull Owners. There's just no way to "win" our division.

See, if I'm talking to someone who is obviously not a "car enthusiast" I don't really engage with them on the subject. UNLESS there is some kind of mechanical interest they have that would create an overlap on the mental venn diagram.

Most people just don't care, and I don't have the energy to make them.

I'm looking forward to Beliebers going up against Juggalos. I'd be looking forward to it even more if it was presented as an actual cage match

I know. Makes me think it's an overdue Gawker-sponsored conciliatory gesture on the behalf of J.K. Trotter and his Jalopnik Gift Guide

Juggalos are the dark horse in this one. You never think about them because you don't want to, and when you do think about them you hate every minute of it.

I think if it were "which of these groups would you herd onto a rocket bound for the sun" it would come down to Juggalos vs White Supremacists for me. Like you said, normally I don't think about them/remember their existence, but when I do I immediately wish they were gone.

I'm in the same boat and I totally agree. I try to be considerate on my bike, but I know plenty of riders with a 'fuck you' attitude. I yell at them everytime they do something stupid, they're just teaching drivers to hate cyclists and making our lives harder.

Yupp, I've been almost hit more than a few times and my reaction to that is generally less than what many cyclist I see react to a car driving in the same lane as them at a safe distance.
