The hair on on a horse that is dead and badly beaten.

Tesla is the only manufacturer (excepting Arcimoto) that has any future. Fight me.

I do not know why you are telling me to fight you. Tell TAHOE INBRED: "GM is dead, it just doesn't know it yet."

GM will fair ok in the consolidation. The real money won't be in car manufacturing, but automation. GM is well positioned on that frontier; perhaps better than Tesla by some reckoning.

You do realize it wasn't me that brought up your mom?

And where do you get this license to disrespect words simply because they can't fight back?

GM is a loan company that makes Chevrolets.

I'll explain and I'll use small words so you'll be sure to understand. Why would I fight you due to random comments about automakers?

I wouldn't. That is stupid.

Why would I fight you due to random comments about my mother?

I wouldn't. That is stupid--but someone would.

Clearly if you wanted to fight me, you would need to say something about my mother, not carmakers, but only in some alternate reality.

Savvy?

It's a figure of speech.
Quote:
Figure of speech
A figure of speech or rhetorical figure is an intentional deviation from ordinary language, chosen to produce a rhetorical effect. Figures of speech are traditionally classified into schemes, which vary the ordinary sequence or pattern of words, and tropes, where words are made to carry a meaning other than what they ordinarily signify.Wikipedia
