No it isn't, which is why I linked you to the Wikipedia entry. Sadly you chose not to read it.
No, it's an approach to unknowns (or presently-unknowables) based on heuristics. It's not a theory, it's a practice.
Because practically all the people with christmas lights on their shitty cars are chavvy cretins like the three boys photographed above.
This is indeed true and it's a point I conceded twice already, however it's unlikely enough to dismiss out of hand. These people - actually I'll say 'boys' because it's nearly always boys who live at home with their mums and have the disposable income to glue blingy shite to their cars - are mostly twats.
Yeah, sorry...too tired. I did scan it though...I read the first chunk as it were...
I read that as simpler until it can be quantumly justified.
Based upon general patterns, puts me in mind of the Anti-Virus programs which use Heuristics and look how many false positives they recieve.
Unknown is that you don't know what type of car of what type of driver may have their HIDs or Xenons fited. It may be a dick but on balance it may be a nice, respectable man. So we have two ends of the scale, why do you have to place all the weight on the "dick" side but none on the "nice/respectable" side. It's about balance, maybe you could not get frustrated, or assume peoplpe are dicks.
With neons etc, yes, I would tend to agree, but not all out - For example, I wasn't with my Corsa, but now I have a Golf which is the kind of car I wanted to begin with. With just small mods, subtle changes and HID/Xenons, no, I couldn't count those as Christmas lights, etc.
Most of the properly chavved up car owners tend to live at home, and however irritating that may be to you and me, there's not much we can do about it.
But then again..
Is the drive at the bottom a dick, or a proffesional?
Again, dick or a nice guy?
Okay, probably a dick.
I googled HID lights and got this...
Dick or loving husband?
I mean, we can't all judge people by first appearances, personally or based on their vehicle, and that's my whole point. It really used to get to me when I'd pull up at the lights in my old Corsa, people would give me that horrible look, probably thinking in the same mindset as you, but they didn't know me, or even give a thought I may just be a fairly nice person who isn't really into all of the chavvy stuff.
Just try it, to not cast judgement. The world may turn into a much happier place.
cycling puts pressure on the blood vessels leading to the penis and the tissue at the base of the penis which will eventually lead to impotence
and no girls going to want you with a flaccid penis no matter how huge it is
So kev, lets assume that i went out and bought one of these swanky new Mercedes with the flashy or as you call it "chavvy" lights, you expect me to remove them? because it hurts your eyes and i look like a twat? Please justify your logic.
I have a couple of conflicting feelings about this. Firstly the lamps in the photo above don't look nearly as bad as the stupid wanker lights that children put on their mum's cars (although back in the day it was rally-style halogens so I suppose it's nothing new) although that photo might've been altered and/or it's impossible to tell what they would look like from an oncoming car on an unlit road, maybe worse.
Secondly I don't understand people who buy Mercs anyway. People in BMWs I get - they are ****s - but people in Mercs are probably just a bit thick, or they are old people with haemorrhoids so bad that they need the comfiest seats that money can be wasted on.
They arn't actually that bad driving towards someone with them installed. Yes they are bright but once you put them in low beam they are more than bare-able. I still havn't seen anyone running about with those blue "chavvy" lights yet though.
