I have come to the conclusion that Pistonheads is actually a long running psychology experiment scrutinising male insecurities.

To that end, what are peoples top 5 trigger thread topics? For me, in no particular order they are:

1. Manual vs. Auto gearboxes
2. Buying vs. leasing/PCP/renting
3. FWD vs. RWD
4. Is an Audi R8 a supercar (or some variation on that theme)
5. Post a picture or link we can laugh at and feel superior about (badly parked/modified/specced cars, grille size, council, facebook posts etc.)

I am not going down the acid rabbit hole that is NP&E...

Obviously I am as guilty here as anyone else (apart from the Audi renters of course).

Is there anyone I haven't offended? Apart from the mods.

There'll be a furby-like toy out in the near future that has RWD, plenty firepower, priced below £30 and made in the uk.

I feel so extraordinary... something's got a hold on me

It's a forum. Hasn't it always been like this?

Toyota GT86 and its lack of power, don't forget that one.

There's certainly plenty of evidence of science experiments managing to post on PH...

Perhaps Welshbeef is a scientific experiment. I can’t think of any other explanation.

The whole purpose of PH is to get Welshbeef and 300bhp/ton to mate.

Other than a classic car show, I've never encountered such a plethora of insufferable bores in one place at any one time.

It absolutely has to be a science experiment.

Or a glitch in the matrix.
