Look closely and you will notice two things about this photo. First, there is not rope, string or twine holding that mattress to the roof of the car. Second, you can see both the passenger and the driver each holding on to the mattress with one hand. I am going to leave the rest of the commentary up to Jerry Seinfeld.
All men kinda think of themselves like low-level super-heroes in their own world. I’m not even supposed to be telling you this. But when men are growing up and are reading about Batman, Spiderman, Superman…these aren’t fantasies. These are options. This is the deep inner secret truth of the male mind.
I’ll give you a perfect example of what I’m talking about.
Did you ever see a guy, out on the highway, moving a mattress tied to the roof of the car? Without fail, he’s got the arm out of the window holding the mattress. This is classic male idiot super-hero thinking. This moron believes that if the wind catches this huge rectangle at 70 mph… “I got it! I got it!”
“Don’t worry about it.” “I’m using my arm!”
What’s almost funnier is that this little stunt has a full write up in the BBC News website.
