We need to have an equal complement of women testers too. Complete with whiny male passengers.
Only my restraint and modesty prevents me from telling you what I really think!

Ok, include a middle-aged women with severe hatred to anything that has a par of balls due to constant let downs and emotionally vacant relationships combined with social and economic beatings of inequality. Her passenger will be a 40-something chubby, pasty male with disturbing mother issues and performance anxiety.

Throw in a 21 year old female restaurant hostess with extreme father issues. Her passenger will be her current boyfriend that she met last night who is a frat guy that has repressed his homosexuality by channeling it into sudden rage and heavy drinking.

Have we rapped up the stereotypes?

Wow, it's a good thing I didn't throw in that crack about one of the passengers being her "monthly cycle" I was thinking about. Not only would it have been petty and sexist, but but also simply inappropriate for this family-oriented website.

Oh yeah, don't forget you need a black/hispanic/asian/caucasian mix amongst the testers in exact proportion to the national averages of races in the USA. Or else that hippie Kenneth Moore will call in the ACLU.

As a black/hispanic/asian/caucasian mix, I object to the term "Hippie." "Bleeding Heart Liberal Democrat" is far more appropriate. I work for General Electric, for crying out loud!

I thought the word "hippie" WAS short for "bleeding heart liberal democrat". My mistake.

The distinguishng characteristic between the two is BHLD's don't necessarily use dope (anymore). All hippies are BHLDs, but not all BHLDs are hippies.

You are both incorrect. 'Hippie' is a term that is used for one that used to live in a commune and is now a stockbroker. They found out the hard way that poverty is overrated.

Kind of like a square is a rectangle, but a rectangle isn't a square?
