Oh, I don't know, maybe because you're obsessed with MIDDLE SCHOOLERS. Look at the fucking news, congratulations, you're not just famous for racing. [โ€ฆ] "Lightning McGroomer"? Yeah, that's a new one. I've never heard that shit before. Oh wait! I've never heard that shit before because you've never groomed fucking children before. What the fuck is wrong with you, Lightning McQueen?
