10 Things Petrolheads Do That Infuriate Non-Car Lovers

People who like cars are a total minority, but we're also supremely passionate. That means we can get a bit carried away, and sometimes that infuriates the non-car lovers around us!

Interrupting conversations to point out cool cars
  • If you like cars, you have a natural ability to spot interesting metal no matter how quickly it flies by. This is especially relevant while driving - your friend is chatting away, and you spot something on the other side of the motorway. “Ooh, look, a Ferrari”, you blurt out, letting your friend know you hadn’t been listening to a word they were saying.
Getting enthusiastic about random old 'beaters'
  • When you’re really into something, you tend to like the things that the average person just doesn’t understand. Movie lovers will often say their favourite movie is some quirky black and white film you’ve never heard of, for example. And it’s the same with cars - you might know why the Toyota AE86 is so revered, but your mates will just see another crappy old hatchback.

In Summary, It's Waste Of $

People are going crazy for pink Himalayan salt — here’s why it’s a waste of money

About 200 million years ago, crystallized sea-salt beds in the Himalayas were drowned in lava. The salt remained buried under snow and ice for millennia, which protected it from modern-day pollution. Now it is unrefined, unprocessed, and mined by hand, making it one of the purest salts on earth. 
The pure conditions of seabeds make Himalayan salt more mineral-rich than processed table salt. It contains nearly 80 minerals, including phosphorus, bromine, boron, and zinc. Because its crystals are stone ground and therefore larger than fine table salt, it also has less sodium in each serving. 
Enthusiasts such as Dr. Oz believe these properties provide incredible health benefits to the respiratory system, sinuses, bones, libido, and more.
However, nutritionists say that the salt is not as healthy as people believe.
In an interview with Yahoo Health, Rene Ficek, lead nutrition expert at Seattle Sutton’s Healthy Eating said, “pink salt is quite popular at the moment, but its health claims may be grossly overstated."
“The truth is that the amount of minerals is too miniscule to make any measurable difference, and we already consume plenty of the same nutrients from other elements of our diet — grains, vegetables, and meat,” Ficek said.
Himalayan salt may taste decent and look pretty, but it's best to take its health claims with a grain of salt.
