Today is Name Your Car day.<\/p>\n
Please don’t do this.\u00a0 \u00a0I beg of you.\u00a0 It’s just weird.<\/p>\n
Do you name your kitchen appliances?\u00a0 Do you name your furniture?\u00a0 Do you name your clothes? Of course not.\u00a0 Then why in the name of all that is holy would you name your car??<\/p>\n
I have a custom license plate.\u00a0 Some people think that is my car’s name.\u00a0 But my car does not have a name.\u00a0 Because it’s a car.\u00a0 \u00a0An inanimate object. It’s not a pet.\u00a0 It’s not even a plant (and I think naming those is pretty weird too).<\/p>\n
So yeah- don’t do this one, OK?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
