Cool Cars with Dad and Bill - 1973 MG Midget

Red 1973 MG MidgetBill: "This is just my size! What is this one called?"

Dad: "This is a 1973 MG Midget."

Bill: "Whoa whoa whoa... you can't just go saying that. It's "little people". You know that "Little People, Big World" is filmed like 12 miles from your house right. Educate yourself.

Dad: "I didn't name it! It's a classic British roadster. It was made back in a different time where things weren't as black and white.

Bill: "I think you mean African American and Funk Deficient Person.

Dad: "You're acting awfully strange. What have you been up to?"

Bill: "Just making new friends. Meeting new people."

Dad: "Uh huh, and was this in Portland?"

Bill: "I may have been having a Flat White at Stumptown with some new mates. We like to go there to talk about current events and what we can do to make things better."

Dad: "You know Stumptown sold out to Peet's right? They're not independent anymore. They're Starbucks south."

Bill: "Ugh. This is like when mom started liking Arcade Fire. I'm so disillusioned."

Dad: "Meh. Being a hipster is now mainstream anyway. Do you want to go to the swings?"

Bill: "Yes. Yes I do. But first, is the MG Little Person a cool car?"

Dad: "Well it's a tiny car with a 60hp engine which is dangerous over 55mph and rusts to nothing with a little morning dew, but chicks like it and it's fun to drive and best of all it's cheap."

Bill: "You had me at chicks."

Dad: "That's my boy. Let's go swing."
