^this...Just got back from a drive with the wifey and she wasnt all for the "diet"...until this 89ish mustang rode up on my ass trying to pass in a no-passing zone. As I started to speed up a lil bit he continued to ride my tail.
So I floored it and she said "ba , no, what are tryi t do"
And no, I dont have any video of this. Not comparing it to Innac's camaro SS kill either. just saying kthxbye lol
She realized how important the diet was then as he come flying by me while he exited the road that merged off to the right.

For those with wifey obstacles to the diet, tell the wife how much better gas mileage you will be getting. Women love the idea of saving money. Also mention how much enjoyment you will be getting but the diet doesn't cost any money.
