Delocated‘s Jon Glaser has a new blog called Auto Buds. “Auto Buds are two cars of the same make, model, color, or as identical as possible, that are parked right next to each other or in close proximity.” Powerful stuff.

  1. Oh great, there goes any chance I had of getting any work done today.

    • My boyfriend thinks the same with me. He is 12 years older than me, lol. We met online at A’geM’ing’le. com The premiere online community for older women seek younger men or older men seek younger women to meet and share your interests. Ever feel that you would best enjoy someone who is not in your age group? Leave behind the other general dating sites out there and try us.

  3. Come on Pixar enough with the viral marketing, just kidding Pixar I love you, you do whatever you want

  4. You guys, Jon Glaser is the best and everything, but I think the internet’s running out of ideas.

    I give it two years before we start seeing “re-imaginings” of LATFH and Paula Deen Riding Things.

  5. I park next to every red 96 ford taurus and never fail to offer blood pacts to make it official. Why am I still so lonely?

  6. I’ve always played a similar game when I’m driving. “Oh, look!. I’m the third Subaru in a row!”

    • Hahaha. My brother just bought a Subaru. He’s whiter than me.

      But for reals, I don’t get the appeal. They’re a totally cute station wagon, but their gas mileage SUCKS.

  7. Okay, can the grad students and teacher of this blog finally settle this? I swear to god that the phrase “close proximity” is redundant. You are saying “close closeness”, Right?

    • Yes, but Garner and the American Heritage Handbook of English Usage call it a “harmless redundancy”, meaning it’s so commonplace that it is innocuous.
      Alternately, it can be considered to be expressing a degree of proximity (but I’d say that’s a stretch).

  8. I’m a big fan of giving the acknowlegement waive when I drive past someone driving the same make model, and color of the car I am driving. Its the little things that get me through life.
