Creative Differences

Creative differences are inevitable when you deal with people who don’t know what beauty looks like.  This is not rare at AcMo.  Since I am AcMo’s arbiter of style, I often find myself at odds with the rest of the staff.  I usually resolve this by replacing the personnel who can’t figure out that I’m correct.

The latest disagreement has created a difficult situation for one of our affiliates.  I blame all of this on Mercedes-Benz.  Pictured below are the new AMG GT and its upcoming FIA GT3 class AMG GT3 race car counterpart.

Two things should be obvious from the above pictures.  One, the AMG GT3 car is menacing and will immediately contend for race wins as soon as it enters competition, and two, race cars based on road cars ALWAYS look better than their corresponding road cars.  Even when the race car has been turned into a rolling billboard festooned with sponsor logos and strange patterns, it is still better looking than its road car counterpart.  This is a universal truism.  Only a person with diminished intellect would dispute these facts as I have presented them, and yet Snob Duben has gone on record stating that he is “not a huge fan of the look” of the AMG GT3.  I am not only in shock that he was serious when he wrote that; but that he also thinks he is correct.  He still believes the Earth is flat too.  His obvious lack of good sense has been a major contributing factor to his bizarre design choices and his inability to finish the AcMo affiliated Scuderia AcMo F-One cars in time for the final pre-season tests.  He has been too busy debating styling with me to finish the job he was hired to do.  I have to use the term “debating” loosely because he refuses to provide scientifically verified facts like I have.

The only logical option at this point is to dust off my used medical equipment and bring my Robotics Training back into play so I can dig into the creative center of his brain to fix the problem.  Once I’ve fixed his brain it will be a trivial matter to retrain him how to speak and stand without assistance.  He won’t even remember what happened or who he is, so I can easily teach him how to recognize good-looking race cars.

I was worried my surgical skills were diminishing because I haven’t operated on anyone in a while, but now I’m excited to have an opportunity to perform a major operation for my first return surgery.  While I’m in there I’ll also fix his reluctance to finish the project and teach him how to recognize the colors that best compliment any vehicle design.

I’ve left a few reference photos below that I will use to re-train Snob after the hopefully successful completion of his surgery.  I plan to be able to report a positive prognosis some time soon.
