Tips on how to hit a deer: Due to the forward momentum of the car and the downward slope of the hood as you stop (as Muff was talking about), if you KNOW you are going to hit a deer and cannot avoid it (and swerving is actually more dangerous than hitting the sucker), you should let off your brakes at the last second so that the hood has time to come back up, hitting the deer with the grill rather than scooping up the deer onto the hood and possibly into the cab of the car. Just sayin'.  Belligerent Pimp wrote: The Man Society just suspended my man card for a week for getting rickrolled by Mrs. Mary Midwestern Housewife.

Just sayin'. Thanks Mrs. C. I'll try to remember that counter-intuitive advice in that split second before I hit the deer that surprised me. Remember - don't break! Its safer! If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch, you must first invent the universe. - Carl Sagan My Backpack

You need to follow through with something that was topical but non-sequitur enough to make me lol. :P I'm sorry Mr. Joke Theory 101. But you did originally say "without humor", not "is slightly humorous but lacking" (Someone please defend my joke, I hope it wasn't a waste of time looking up the proper spelling of DeLorean).

Remember - don't break! Its safer! I didn't say don't break. I said let up on the brake so the deer has less of a chance of coming through your windshield. Of course, the two times that I have been hit by a deer, one took off my rear bumper and the other rolled down the side of my car.

Those silly deer! What are they going to do with a car bumper? Quote:Razor: As hard as one might try no one will ever be able to pull one over on Super Penguin. Backpack of Win
