Dagmar Dismay

RECEIVED Tue., April 21, 2020

Dear Mr. Smarty Pants,
    Dude! We've met and are Facebook friends and all, but I am SORELY disappointed with your Dagmar mix up ["Mr. Smarty Pants Knows," April 17]. I am attaching an article from a hot rod site.
    Dagmars in hot rod slang are rounded and conical, a lot like breasts. They go on the bumpers. Usually the front. Fins are flattened and pointy, and even in profile don't really look like breasts.
    This would have taken less than a minute to verify. Now I am going to start doubting EVERYTHING in Mr. Smarty Pants. As our fearless leader would say:  SAD. ((emoticon!))
Yours in deepest disappointment,
Joe
