Time to Troll Bad Ads

I am going to take it upon myself to engage with some of these bad ad writers, starting with those who put a bunch of different cars completely unrelated to the car they are posting at the bottom. In this case, I searched for "Miata" but I see !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! :

Now clearly, that Lexus is not a Miata. It's not even close to a Miata, so why would it show up? Well, the seller included this helpful blurb at the bottom.

1995 1996 1997 1998 1999 2000 2001 2002 2003 nissan maxima altima sentra chevy chevrolet impala cruse classic malibu dodge stratus intrepid avenger infiniti i30 i35 g35 mazda miata millenia millennia 626 chrysler es300 es 300 es250 es 250 lexus is300 is 300 ls400 ls 400 ls430 ls 430 ls 460 ls460

Deep. Useful.

Well, what I am going to do is email him about this ad, asking him about his 1995 Mazda Miata. Based on the pictures, I'm pretty sure that this isn't a dealership that's selling this car, so I don't think he actually has one. I think he literally just added every car he could possibly think of off of the top of his head.

Let's see what happens.

What you are doing is like taking an eyedropper and trying to clean up Deepwater Horizon.

I know. But have you ever heard that story about the old man throwing starfish into the ocean?

Well, he's throwing starfish who were washed up on the shore by the tide into the ocean, and a young man walks up to him and says, "why are you doing that? You'll never throw them all back. You'll never make a difference!"

The old man looks at him, and picks up another starfish. He replies to the young man, "That may be, but I made a difference to this one" and he threw it out to sea.
