    I’ve been driving an EV for 6 years.

    • I have never run out of electricity.
    • It hasn’t caught fire.
    • I do not miss switching to 2. gear.
    • I do not miss the noise.
    • My penis size has not changed.
    • I do enjoy the lower cost.
    • I am mildy and smugly annoyed by the doll head nodders in ice cars who can’t get an even acceleration when starting at the green light.
    • I do not miss standing in the cold at the gas station holding a nozzle for minutes to empty my wallet.
    • Charging time has never been an issue as it happens by itself when I don’t use the car.
    • Range has never been an issue as I hate driving to other countries in non stop trips anyway.

    Is there anything else you would like to know about driving EVs?

        Do you often run out of gas in your car? Does your phone often run out of battery?

        If you’re a functioning adult who can answer “no” to those questions, then you do not need to worry about range anxiety.

        In my car, I can also look at the navigation system which has a nice big circle showing how far I can go. You see the dark area outside the circle? You must never go there, Simba.

      Have you found yourself accidentally gesturing “my heart goes out to you” with an extended arm at a fascist rally?

        No, but unrelated to my car, I did make googly eyes when I saw a bunch of Nazis on a corner of a street four years ago. I do regret it though.

        In my half a century of living I have bever seen that before, so it came as a shock to me. Next time I will ensure to give them a good beating instead.
