      Idiot is a word derived from the Greek ἰδιώτης, idiōtēs (“person lacking professional skill,” “a private citizen,” “individual”), from ἴδιος, idios (“private,” “one’s own”).[1] In Latin the word idiota (“ordinary person, layman”) preceded the Late Latin meaning “uneducated or ignorant person.”[2] Its modern meaning and form dates back to Middle English around the year 1300, from the Old French idiote (“uneducated or ignorant person”). The related word idiocy dates to 1487 and may have been analogously modeled on the words prophet[3] and prophecy.[4][5] The word has cognates in many other languages.

      Funnyth!

    • MeOmY says:

      “Moron” was coined in 1910 by psychologist Henry H. Goddard[3] from the Greek word moros, which meant “dull” (as opposed to “sharp”), and used to describe a person with a mental age located between 8 and 12 on the Binet scale.[4] It was once applied to people with an IQ of 51-70, being superior in one degree to “imbecile” (IQ of 26-50) and superior in two degrees to “idiot” (IQ of 0-25). The word moron, along with others including “retarded”, “idiotic”, “imbecilic”, “stupid”, and “feeble-minded”, was formerly considered a valid descriptor in the psychological community, but it is now deprecated by psychologists.[5]

      Still funnyth!

  1. The Shaggy Marlin says:

    I don’t know what’s wrong with that guy but minivans are sweet.

  2. Cecona says:

    I like vans because you can sleep in them.

  3. JW. says:

    There’s only one problem with this graph…. just about nobody makes mini-vans anymore… they’re all “crossover vehicles” now… pff… I miss my mini-vans, (I’ve had three at different times) they were awesome!

  4. ... says:

    It’s called birth control, use it. You idiots need to stop having kids, then you won’t have anything to complain about in these stupid graphs, and neither will I.

  5. boaks says:

    Since when do mini-vans get decent gas mileage? Maybe they do now, but the last I heard, they only get around 20 mpg. I’ll take my little Toyota with its 40mpg any day… (but then again, I don’t have a family and all its stuff to tote around, so this graph wouldn’t apply to me anyway)

    • beatusmongous says:

      I can get 50mpg in my Quest if I draft a big rig on the freeway.

      But normally I get around 27mpg on the highway, and 16mpg in town.

    • kg333 says:

      20 mpg simply beats everything else that carries 7 or 8 people…it’s all relative.

    • slupine says:

      My minivan gets the same gas mileage as my mother’s Malibu.

      And they said “reasonable gas mileage” not “fantastic”. So like… better than an SUV for the size by a fair stretch.

  6. MannyCalavera says:

    That graph also means that you don’t want a vehicule that can carry your family

    • Pablo says:

      Exactly. You WANT the Mustang GT, or Corvette, or whatever that will neither hold you family or get good good gas mileage. You NEED the car that will hold you, the wife, two booster seats a car seat and not get 7 mpg.

  7. GammaPaladin says:

    Real men aren’t embarrassed to drive minivans.

    And yes, minivans get good mileage compared to SUVs, which are the only other thing that will carry a bunch of kids + cargo comfortably.

    Personally I drive one because I needed something capable of lugging lumber and my tools. So it was either an SUV (Which have less usable cargo room and are less comfortable passenger vehicles), a pickup truck (Which are [i]horrible[/i] passenger vehicles, in the instance that I want to drive friends anywhere), or a van.

    I got a Chrysler Town & Country. The mileage is better than any SUV and most pickups, it has more passenger and cargo room than any SUV, and I can pop the seats up to carry 6 passengers very comfortably, which is something no pickup could ever do.

    • slupine says:

      Town & Country and the related models (Caravan and Voyager) are great. My family has had… so many over the years. The first one we ever had, my dad sold to his sister and she’s still driving it. That thing’s been running since… I want to say 81? They run like tanks if well cared for.

      Though some companies do still make stationwagons that aren’t bad either.

      • Paul says:

        I loved my subaru legacy station wagon until some asshole stole it and crashed it. Depending on the size of your family (physically and in numbers), a station wagon could be perfect. My 96 ford escort gets 30mpg and I can’t imagine they’ve gone down since then. It’s got a good amount of trunk space for it’s size too.

  8. Gustav says:

    Most parents in my neighbourhood think they need a minivan when they pop out their first kid. Until you have 3 or 4 kids, you don’t need a minivan.

    • TheObject says:

      Trouble being, once you buy a mini-van (or leave your wife alone long enough to end up with one in your driveway), you have one more place in which to breed… It’s a downward spiral from there.

  9. Marekatt says:

    Just ’cause you got a small penis doesn’t mean everyone else feel the same.

  10. Antiauk says:

    You could have stopped breeding _before_ you needed a minivan.

  11. curtis hutcherson says:

    station wagons

  12. wedgeman says:

    My choice pickup with a cap and the windows blacked out for the wind.

    although the mileage sucks, you don’t look like a total wiener for driving a dork-mobile (aka “minivan”).

    Also, you can throw a dozen kids in the back, and you won’t be able to hear them fighting back there. Bonus: your dog can go back there too, and won’t spend the entire trip trying to climb into the front or drooling on the console. He’ll keep the kids busy too.

    The cap is to keep them from throwing each other/truck parts/beer cans/raccoon traps over the side at highway speeds. The blacked out windows keep nosy cops from interfering with your business.

    sucks when they get into your emergency beer, though. the wife does NOT like that. Which is the final positive to this ingenious design. When the wife throws you out because four kids and a German Shepherd somehow drank an entire two-four of beer on the ride home from school, you have somewhere sheltered to sleep.

  13. papajon0s1 says:

    I drive a minivan alone just to tick off the liberals.

  14. ghostofgenerayburn says:

    Liberals drive minivans, too. I’m just sayin’.

  15. ghostofgenerayburn says:

    ^^Ignore comment fail above. I meant to reply to someone, so out of context it makes no sense.

  16. Dude says:

    So you want NO cars that get good mileage? Wow.

  17. kath says:

    Minivans, crossovers, whatever you call them, they are all ugly and scream suburban family. I feel sorry for anyone who drives one of those ridiculous things.

  18. John says:

    Mazda 5 – does all three for me. Ok, it isn’t stylish but it is nice to drive, fits family, and gets quite decent gas mileage. We have the manual transmission which is a bonus. Maybe competition will show up one day.

  19. OZZZZZIEEE says:

    Hah! Such plebeian thoughts of gas mileage! *sips from wineglass*
