    Two comments:


    1) Ray looks like he has that Billy Idol/ John Mayer sideways lips thing going on.


    2) Did anyone else catch the introduction "..from Jalopnik.com, autoblog"? Unfortunate marriage of words, no?

    I'll agree on the Subaru, my first car was a completely trashed hand-me-down Legacy that I had to put into a ditch at high velocity in order to finally kill, so, yeah, probably a good bet on the subie.


    The others, not so much. Seriously, Ray, what's wrong with normal f**king wagons? Why do you have to recommend those purposeless _UV things.

    @Jo Schmo: You know, when I was a young kid, I somehow snuck "Amazon Women on the Moon" on VHS into my house, which was wonderful viewing material (if you haven't seen it, it's a genre spoof/sketch comedy movie on par with Airplane and the like).


    Anyway, ever since then, the name Ray has held different significance to me. After reading or hearing it too much, that one particular scene comes to mind.

    Good work, Roy. It's too bad you didn't get the "eight talking heads shouting over each other on the same screen split 8 ways" treatment, though. I guess CNBC reserves that honor for VIPs like Rick Wagoner.

    @Deartháir celebrates Anti-Pants Day:


    Besides the cleverly timed still pick where Ray looks like he just bit down on a Spree, the tie was the first thing I noticed.


    I'm not that old, but it bugs the living hell out of me how if you're gonna wear a tie, tie the damned thing properly, with a knot smaller than your head, and at least try to make it look like you've done it in the past.


    Ray, you must be having a bad day, 'cause you're usually pretty dapper.

    @sub-$3K luxury rides are expendable: As someone who used to wear a suit every day, I learned there's actually a science to it, specifically in matching the cut of the tie and the type of knot used to the style of the suit. For instance, in Roy's case, he has a single breasted suit with low shoulders and very wide lapels. Jesus, Roy, where'd you get lapels like that? As it also appears to be two-button and thus lower in the front, these suits usually lend themselves to a wider tie and a larger knot, usually a single- or double-Windsor knot, and a generously tapering tie. I also wouldn't have gone with the navy blue tie over a pink shirt with a brown jacket, but that's just me: I try not to mix too many dark colours.


    Yeah, I know way too much about this crap.


    Also, in Roy's defense, a diagonally-striped tie is always going to look crooked with that knot, even if it's not.
