I just don't care. I hate my car. I resent relying on it. Whether it works or not is something for my employer to care about.

I would gently suggest that you are simply not in natural audience for a blog post like this, and that's okay.

I hate cars but I enjoyed this post. The author is a food critic, the post has very little to do with cars.

It's not the hating cars part that makes this article unsuitable to this commenter. It's the way they responded.

This is one of those times where "I bet you're fun at parties" is a perfectly justified response to the (G?)GP [1]. This story is funny, well-written, succinct. Liz would be a hit at parties. GP would not be invited again.

[1] do we prepend great- when referring to parent comments more than two levels (GP) up? Or do we just say GP and rely on context?

What is the sort of person who is in this audience?

Anyone who likes a story for its own sake

Probably people who aren't miserable, antagonistic, contrarian, and argumentative!
