Sorry if I offended anyone. Was not directing anything to anyone in specific. I’ll leave with one final parting shot. At the end of the day, this sums up why anyone works out . . . My wife at least. Peace out .

My father, a psychologist, often tells me people can't help being who they are and often can't even see it, even if it's obvious to the rest of us. (It's not my philosophy but his.)

I was just being snarky. I am sure there are many that fall into the 1% category on here. And for the record I don't workout 7 days a week and I can live with the shame of being an underachiever.

Folks this is why god invented the Prius. So you could drive to the gym, get 66mpg and not give a rats *** about who parks next to you or near you. Not only that you can take it through an automatic car wash for $6 and it will look great. The money saved on gas and car washes (and dent repair) more than pays for itself.

Speaking of Prius and their owners . . . Is it just me or do others notice and get a little worked up when stuck behind a Prius on a one lane highway and it becomes patently obvious that the Prius driver is watching his economy mode MPG thingy and working super hard to set a new MPG record. Meanwhile, we are rolling along 60 going down hill, but steadily dropping down into the 40s going uphill.

A. Cause gricklock by driving too slow and reducing the capacity of the highway to handle traffic (which is purportional to speed) below the demand. This reduces the fuel economy of everyone else on the road.
or
B. Where there isn’t enough traffic for the Prius to cause gridlock, it allows the owner to commute longer than they otherwise would, ultimately not saving any gas.
In the end they don’t do anything to reduce gas consumption.
