What does this site meme?

“A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men.” — Roald Dahl by way of the Roman poet Horace.

Have you wondered what people in old car ads are really saying? Duricy’s Motor Memes is a transformative review and educational critique that puts words into the mouths of automotive advertisements. The purpose of these memes is for you, the jaded car enthusiast/historian, to chuckle while accidentally on purpose learning about the best and worst of our American dreams on wheels. There is, of course, a healthy juxtaposition of old verses new cultural values for a lovingly malevolent take on our modern society as well as our newest automobiles.
