I'm at my wit's end. This would normally come as no surprise to my family or friends. But there is something else that is driving me batty. It has to do with another forum, and reinforces why I like GreenHybrid so much.

At this other forum, there is a thread titled "Honda Civic Hybrid: Problems and Solutions". In that thread, there is an individual who has complained about many things, including but not limited to the fact that she believes the her hybrid surged forward all by itself, and crashed her HCH through a store window. She also does not seem to like Honda, or men, is threatening to sue, etc., but those are other issues.

The issue is that she recently popped up again to complain about the "Honda Civic Hybrid seats".

I pointed out that there are no such thing as "Honda Civic Hybrid seats", because they are the same seats as in all Honda Civics. You might as well be complaining about:

- the Honda Civic Hybrid headlights, or
- the Honda Civic Hybrid paint, or
- the Honda Civic Hybrid windshield wipers, or
- the Honda Civic Hybrid glove compartment

Of course, you could legitimately complain about the limited trunk size, or the power, or the funny lights on the dashboard, because those are Honda Civic Hybrid attributes, which are unique to the Hybrid. But the other things (seats, headlights, etc.) are not HCH attributes. So you are not complaining about the Hybrid, you are complaining about the Honda Civic in general.

Anyway, I guess what I considered pretty obvious to me is either too subtle for that audience, or else I'm crazy. And my comments were met with predictable rebuttals, and disbelief that I could be so dense.

So the reason I'm posting this here is because (1) it's personally therapeutic, and (2) because I enjoy this forum so much more: everybody is not out to bash each other, but there is a level of reason and intelligence that is lacking elsewhere.

So thanks for letting me sit on the couch here. Go ahead and tell me I'm wrong or crazy or whatever -- I am interested in opinions from reasonable, intelligent folks. And if you can relate to my situation, you can lay that on me too.
