ForkSnorter on Car Suggestions for Very Tall, Very Large Man - New or Used, Petrol/Diesel or Electric - Budget up to $100k

I can't help it if the rest of the world is three standard deviations below my mean.

Yeah, na. I can only assume you are trolling me, which I don't appreciate, or you really actually think that, which is....ludicrous.

Hybroid on Car Suggestions for Very Tall, Very Large Man - New or Used, Petrol/Diesel or Electric - Budget up to $100k

The question isn't odd. The forum has had similar questions "help me choose a car". Some of the responses have not been helpful at all,…

Protractor on Car Suggestions for Very Tall, Very Large Man - New or Used, Petrol/Diesel or Electric - Budget up to $100k

I made it quite clear that I don't have any brand loyalties. There's no 'flag' for me to ditch.

I don't know what this means. Does Shaq drive a particular model, and what is it?

Muppet Detector on Car Suggestions for Very Tall, Very Large Man - New or Used, Petrol/Diesel or Electric - Budget up to $100k

I feel like this is a joke answer. Convertibles are tiny and having my head above the front windscreen is a deathwish.

Murkymerv on Car Suggestions for Very Tall, Very Large Man - New or Used, Petrol/Diesel or Electric - Budget up to $100k

I thought it was implied by my OP, but since this appears to have stopped being made in 1981, and would be even more difficult to service…

Empharand on NIVEA MEN Stress Protect Aerosol Deodorant 250ml $4.25 ($3.83 S&S) + Delivery ($0 Prime/ $59+) @ Amazon AU (Selected Postcodes)

Yes I think so. I have zero deodorant loyalty and will buy whatever the cheapest is (though I have to admit green Norsca is my favourite).

You're right - I was tricked by Amazon. I will amend.
