I did this for six years. I still wonder sometimes what, exactly, the fuck I was doing.

Moltz, reliving the glory days of C.A.R.S.

Through some (cruel?) twist of fate, John and I have become pals and I don’t think I’ve ever had the chance to tell him how much I loved C.A.R.S. back in the day. There was something so specific yet absolutely perfect about the humor of the site. It appealed to that incredibly narrow slice of people who not only know who Rob Enderle is but why he’s a jackass, poked fun at technology fanboys of all stripes yet still reaffirmed the prejudices of Mac nerds. I’m amazed John put up with it for as long as he did and, honestly, I’m not sure I’d find it as compelling now as I did 8 years ago, but I’m glad it was around when it was.
