One of those videos, by Elena Crevello and Heidi Niedermeyer, touched on some characteristics we (perhaps a little cringing-ly) recognized in ourselves: the urge to speak to dogs as if they are human children, the refusal to go west of Vermont, and the propensity to curse at other people from the safety of one's own vehicle.
