- You don't buy a De Lorean unless you want attention.

Like, you do want to be out in a De Lorean if you're

Transition words & phrases

having a bad day because everybody's honking at you

Even with like 20 other De Loreans parked around,

First time I saw a De Lorean was in a science museum,

I wanna say in 1983, and they had a brand new De Lorean,

the car of the future parked in the lobby of the science

museum, it became my dream car and I always wanted

to own one, but it always seemed like wanting to own,

you know, Magnum PI's Ferrari, or the van from the A Team,

like something impossible that would never happen.

I wrote this novel, Ready Player One, the protagonist

is kind of obsessed with ‘80s pop culture, and he loves

Doc Brown's time machine, but, he decides to take

Doc Brown's time machine and then mash in three more

of his favorite 80s super vehicles, the Ghostbuster's

ectomobile, Ecto 1, KITT from Knight Rider and then

This is my iPad that I use to control my time circuits.

This operates the flux capacitor, but mostly it's just

fun like at the stoplight, I just pretend that I'm

dropping oil like Spy Hunter, and then I also have KITT.

- [KITT] A little consideration would be a beginning.

When I need to clear traffic, because I need to get to,

you know, the site of a job and bust a class five

full roaming vapor, I can't be sitting in traffic.

I love people who love the things they love so passionately

that it's just not enough for them to talk about it,

it has to manifest itself in their lives in some way.

They have to build their own time machine or they have

to cosplay, you know, their favorite character.

I'm that kind of person, and so the car is a way for me
