OMG!! A TALKING CAR!!! :O

[The Salty Vulcan]

For a while now, a new channel on Australian TV has been showing some of the more popular television programs of the 80's. Namely The Rockford Flies, The A-Team and Knight Rider. Now for the most part, I enjoy this new programming. The A-Team is good for a laugh and any chance to see James Gardner is welcome but my problem is with Knight Rider.

Now not only does David Hasselhoff's perfect eyelashes disturb me but my biggest problem is how...accepting people are to the idea of a talking car. Seriously, KITT (the car) just starts talking to people even when he isn't doing anything and they're just admiring him. And they're ok with it. Now me, I'd be questioning my sanity upon hearing a voice come from an empty car but no...everyone is fine and everythings cool.

So I ask you, my fellow Escapists, just how would you react if a car started talking?
Now if you don't mind, I have to erase my mind of Hasselhoff's eyelashes.

You mean cars don't talk to you?

 

[Something Amyss]

All things considered?

My cell phone talks.

My computer can talk.

My camera talks.

My e-reader can talk.

GPSes talk.

If a car talked, I'd probably be all "cool" for two seconds and forget it.

In the 80s, I'd probably have gone crazy with nerdgasm, but that's a different time.

Try to learn the car's talking origin, reveal this to the rest of the world. Become famous, and become the car's friend.

I would jumo five miles high and would then seal he car and sell it for a kazillion dollars. I would then most likely go on a shopping spree and buy a couple of hunred games

I'd try to see if it were an Autobot or a Decepticon.
Hopefully it would be a decepticon inexplicably loyal to me; I always got the bad guy action figures to my sister's good guy action figures.

Of course, we're talking kids growing up during the incarnation of Beast Wars, when the bad guys were ROBOT DINOSAURS. Can I have one of those instead of a talking car?

Lol nice.

If my car talked I'd ask if it minded the dirty things done in it
