There are plenty of fanboys out there that will cite this as the death of the Mustang. Just as there are lots that will assume NAFTA has something to do with this. And even if the people that made the posts I quoted are being sarcastic, who's to say that the next guy won't come by and legitimately agree?

Personally, I enjoy sarcasm. I love riffing with friends to push something ever more outlandish limits. But with strangers, I try to keep it to a minimum or make it as obvious as I can. I don't always succeed, but I try to be understood as clearly as possible.
