I am conducting another perfectly serious psycho-linguistic survey, the purpose of which however I cannot reveal without affecting the results. The following exchange takes place between two newcomers. What strikes you about it

Thread: Do you like forest green cars

Followup: No but Mary does. Perhaps that's one of the reasons she won't let me drive her Explorer


Edited to change "bright" to "forest"

The Ford Explorer doesn't come in green so it's a complete and total non-sequitur.
