I'm just gonna put Antique plates on the Phoenix and buy a $100 shitbox to drive.

Anyways I have added on my list another t-shirt idea for my screen printing class.

I had a hippy-bitch in school tell me I'm a terrible person because the Phoenix isn't "green"

I decided to make a shirt that says "I'll destroy this earth, one hydrocarbon at a time."

Or "My car cancels 5 Prius'" or "I get 12mpg, come at me bro"

That hippy bitch is an idiot... I can tell you a number of ways that your car is greener then a Prius and greener then a lot of the other options out there.

:lol:

You can't just look at MPG and go MY GOODNESS YOUR KILLING THE ENVIRONMENT!!!!@@#$%#(*&#@*^%!

The funny part is in order for the battery in a hybrid/electrical vehicle to benefit the environment you have to drive for something like 30 or 40 years but the battery will only hold a charge for 8-10 years if your lucky :lol: Then it rots in a junkyard somewhere with it's acid going everywhere... That's plenty good for the environment....

BTW go show them the Top Gear where Jeremy and James test drive 2 electric cars this season and you'll see that it's not yet even remotely viable to get around

the prius travels 1.1 million miles before arriving at the dealership....canada to russia to china to japan to the US

I jokingly call myself a hippie because I believe in doing everything within one's means to help the environment, support local, eat organic, etc etc. I figure it cancels out my love of cars.

Besides, I think utilizing something until it is no longer usable is more environmentally friendly than constantly consuming. (I.e., use your old car, take care of it, and it will get you farther than some new POS.)

Prius.

I'm so glad you all get it, the concept of an electric is great... as long as we ignore where the energy comes from and how we manufacture the vehicle... Hybrids are better in a lot of ways but we just don't have the technology to make that the answer yet.

Driving style is a huge factor in mileage, I can get 22 MPG from my 72 Chevrolet C/30 Longhorn truck (292 HO inline six/350 auto) if I drive it right... I was driving it yesterday at 120kph and got passed by a Prius that had to be doing closer to 135... I think I was getting better mileage when she passed me.

Last summer I got 22MPG for a very long stretch with my 94 Ford F350 with a 460 5 speed on my way to Montana, but I was very consistent with my driving and doing all the mileage tricks I could (plus great roads, high gears and flat lands help) this is a feat that most people say is impossible, but it's just not.

I wish these eco car enviro tards would get a damn clue about reality.

Problem is we are in a generation that doesn't do research for themselves they believe whatever is on the tv/radio/internet and wouldn't you know the media is pushing that we need to conserve gas by trading in the perfectly fuel efficient vehicle we have for a brand new one that actually does no better to the environment. I remember before the summer hit the media was predicting that gas prices would go up to $5, ok balderdash we didn't even see above $3.80 where I live.

Plus since it's all over the media it must be cool to be eco and drive a Prius, just like it's cool to own an Apple product. Where as if people actually did research on other things out there they would find better items for sale for their needs, not the needs of cool or the media. Or like you said if they did something about how they went about using their current product.

So I'm sitting at my computer about 40 minutes ago, turning MLP screenshots into porn like a pro, when I hear a noise outside... I live out in the middle of nowhere in a tiny ghost town that is basically just a row of 6 houses close together for no visible reason... so I go outside to investigate it under the cover of darkness... now I'm sort of a big guy at 6 foot 2 and 260 pounds, but I can be pretty quite and sneaky... so I slip through my house with the lights off (I like it dark) and got out the front door expecting to scare off a neighbours dog or something... and there is some guy in my damn yard near my truck, as my foot touches gravel he spins and sees me and books it... I was between him and the highway, so he goes deeper into my yard and off towards a nearby sideroad... so I run back into my yard and into my truck and take off out of my yard and down the side road, but I lost the bastard... took several trips around the block and up and down in front of my neighbours houses... he must have ran out into a field or something, but the strange thing is I did not see a car or truck anywhere, not even traffic of any kind... so where the hell did he come from?

I wonder if this is the prick that keeps siphoning my gas tanks, I drive no fewer then 5 different vehicles right now and all of them have been siphoned repeatedly the last couple months, my 1 ton deck truck especially... last week I filled both tanks 4 times at $130 a fill... I am so pissed off right now... but at the same time I am excited, I almost caught this POS, maybe I scared him off for a while even... because this problem has been affecting the whole neighborhood for a long time, and we all have lots of cars and other things that take gas and they all get siphoned frequently.

If I owned a gun I'm afraid I'd use it...

BTW, the screenshot line was a joke...

Dart gun. Knock him out. Take him to the police, or put him somewhere strange, such as another town "nearby"; hopefully it takes awhile for him to figure out where he is when he wakes up.

Also, boobie trap your yard. Or get locked gas filler caps, if any of that sort would actually fit your cars.

  • Founders

Yeah I would get a gun, he might start off with siphoning gas but once he gets comfortable with that, he might try and come inside. Either way can't hurt to at least do a "Look at my gun" and scare him off hopefully :lol:

In a similar story, why I am getting my concealed weapons license now, is that my cousin had some Mexican (sorry for racial profiling not meant but had to describe the guy) come up to him with a knife and demanded my cousin's car. My cousin reached down grabbed his .45 and said "How bout no!" :D

Anyway moving on to a story of my own. I was coming home last night from class and it was dark out. I live in a gated community (if you've been to Florida all neighborhoods are pretty much this way) and the guy in front of me is a resident as we have 2 sides; one for residents and there is a bar code and sensor to let us in then guests have to talk to the guard attendant. Anywho to turn into our neighborhood it's a 6 lane road (3 each way) and we have to make a left, well douch-canoe in front of me takes that turn at 1 mile an hour and almost leaves me out to get hit. Then he goes on the residents side and stops at the guardhouse but doesn't talk to the guard, just sits there for about 2 minutes till I honk my horn and he starts going 1mph again. We proceed through the gate and he continues at 1mph through our neighborhood. Now I don't live that far from the entrance of my neighborhood, I just live about 20 houses or so down on a side street but this guy just continues 1mph and goes down my street too. Me seeing as at this point haven't been home in about 14-15 hours, really would like some food, relaxing, etc... so I pass him as it was clear the other way and all around. I never exceed 25mph (the speed limit) and that guy just goes crazy. He honks his horn at me, turns his brights on and off, a whole bunch of crazy stuff. Freaking pissed me off because it's not like I was the jackass in that situation and I made sure the area was clear before passing and didn't even go 1 mile over the speed-limit. I hate these old people in my neighborhood!!! Please stop being a self-absorbed-douche-canoe and think of the person behind you!

I never go above the speed-limit in the neighborhood because like when they're driving there are a bunch of idiots walking or riding bikes, along with retarded kids too. Yet people always say "slow down" I think they just see a twenty-something year old driving a semi-sporty looking car and assume I'm speeding or not paying attention. I'm far from a careless driver, that's why it gets on my nerves all the time.

I know your rant is serious and I totally agree with it but omfg every time you say douche-canoe I laugh uncontrollably! I have even started saying it to my friends to try and spread the epidemic. BEST. PHRASE. EVER.

Anyway. Carry on.

One of my closest friends just started spreading it to all of her friends and they love it. YES, THE EPIDEMIC IS SPREADING.

As for rants...

I DO NOT WANT TO WRITE THIS 25 PAGE PAPER OMG. This week has made me want to shoot puppies. I'm on page 12. I can't seem to get past this point and a 25 page draft was due on Thursday. This stupid paper is the only thing holding me back from my diploma; I got an incomplete in this class (it's the capstone for my major) because I had this problem with the paper before, just with a different topic. I get so bored with it after researching 12 pages of material that I want to gouge my eyeballs out and no more pages get written. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH. The best part is, not only is this paper longer than any paper grad schools would accept for applications, but I don't even want to go to grad school for art history anymore! I'm starting my MBA in sustainable business in January and this is the only thing stopping me from enrolling in classes. RESEARCH PAPER, I HATE YOU.

/rant.

On the bright side, it doesn't matter what grade I get in the class; as long as I pass it I get my diploma! And thanks for the advice, I am the queen of BSing papers. I sound like a genius. :lol:

Holy. Sweet. Fvcking. Odin.

I've had my fair share of arguments in my day...but this one really has me tweaked. Why? A 43 year old piece of trash spews some stupid ass posts over on GAGT.com, and I called him on his shit. Next thing you know, he waves his cock around about him being older and wiser, and I don't know jack shit just because I called him on being a stupid ass (basically, he decides to shit talk AaronGTR, and he got in a huff when I defended Aaron)

Here's the topic at hand:

Post #17 is where is starts to turn ugly.

But sweet Odin, he pissed me off.

WTF, he gets $175 an hour on locomotives? Here a mechanic gets $180 and hour doing what you do!

So many people use age or post count as a definition of penis size... I mean intelligence or worth... It's idiotic. Just because your older does not mean you are better, I have met some appalling older people... Hitler was 46 when he got into power, does that make him better then all the younger people he killed because he was older and must have known better?

I'm getting off topic here, why even argue with a moron? at the end of the day you are stressed out over his BS and he is still a moron... nothing will change that.

Nothing will change that, when I encounter this level of dipshitery (or Douchecanoeism if you will) I usually just walk away, because you just can't reason with ignorant asshats.
