You're 2 for 2 in getting me weirdly excited about penis shaped race cars that haven't won anything yet. I guess I just have a fetish for unique and slightly batshit engineering solutions.

Low drag and/or flow through aero and unconventional distribution of weight and mechanical grip and downforce and power delivery and UNNNFFFFFFFF

As someone with a non-Anglo family name, I find it hilarious and fitting that the head of the American Congress has a name people refuse to pronounce correctly.

Every American Ever: "Hello Speaker Boner"

Mr. Speaker: "Hello, it's actually pronounced Bainer. I get that a lot however, so no harm done."

Every American Ever: "Nope, I'm going to keep calling you Boner."

Wait what?Front wheel drive..?Alrighty then..this car will be one to watch but in typical Nissan fashion I don't think it will be a race finisher.

He really is. He does nothing in Congress then blames everyone else.

He'd probably be more open to conversation if you wouldn't purposefully mispronounce his name.

Strictly speaking of course Böhner isn't Bainer either but never mind.

It's the North Korea approach to propaganda. If you lack the legal or military power to command general platform-based leadership, but you want to gain the support of the smaller group of enthusiastic supporters, allow those who would otherwise be ambivalent to you to be derisive. This polarizes opinion into "camps" and gives you a larger, stronger constituency than if you had a gradient of uninformed or uninterested supporters, and keeps those who wouldn't (no matter what you do) support you from taking you seriously enough to be a threat.
