Failure Always Leads to Car Porn
Cheetos Boredom Buster
I was recently instructed by my boss Mike Spinelli to make a miniature Formula One car out of Cheetos. Clearly, Mike had lost his mind. There was no way I was going to spend my evening trying to jam toothpick axles through a very delicate snack food [I said to use wire axles. Have you no sense of physical space? -- ms]. Plus, why should I listen to the guy who recruited several co-workers help him finish a paper-craft project he still managed to waste two days making [Clean out your desk -- ms]. Twenty-five minutes and 30 horribly mauled Cheetos later, I gave up. It was a stupid idea to say the least.
So as I sat at my desk, trying to recover from a cold that sent me home early from work that day, I stuffed my face with Cheetos, chased with orange juice. (It sounds worse then it really is, trust me.) It took me a good hour to figure out what exactly I was going to write about, and then it hit me.
When I'm bored or trying to think about what to write, I always turn to car porn. The internet is an assortment of the stuff, easily found. People even make money from using tags like "Corvette ZR1" or "Nissan GTR." That leads me to this week's Cheetos Boredom Buster: car compilation videos.
Every type of motorsport has its own cult of obsessed fans. These are the guys that would spend a sunny weekend downloading and watching every video related to their favorite sport. In off seasons, with little new content, these fanatics turn to making their own cool car videos.
These compilation videos show all the highlights of a race or season, generally eliminating the need to ever watch any of the races in real time. Race series like World Rally, Formula 1, American Le Mans, and even NASCAR all have obsessed fans who are capable of putting together these compilation videos. All it takes is a simple Google or YouTube search. Use tags like "Montage", "Compilation", or "Highlights" and you are set. Just check out a few of my favorites on this post. Become a search geek and you'll find anything you'll ever need. So if you are ever bored, sick, or just want to piss off your boss at work, grab a bag of Cheetos and a glass of orange juice and enjoy some car porn. And leave the toothpicks.
