I feel insulted....
« on: October 04, 2005 - 07:56:27 PM »
Tonight, a guy at work (He's been gone for about 3 months, just got back recently, he's in the Guards) pointed at my car, and asked, "Who's Goat is that?" I told him "Uh... it's a Barracuda, and it's mine..." Now, that's not that insulting, because GTOs are among my favorite cars. However, the NEXT thing he said WAS what insulted me....

"A FORD? Fords suck!"

...

I about backhanded him for calling my car a Ford. Some people.... ::)

Ghost, for this guy to call your car a Ford makes it quite obvious he is a retard, and Ghost this is the important part to remember. We do not back hand or look down on retards because of their condition. You see Ghost they are Special and we need to just be understanding.


Or not


Its a great looking Fish ghost, Burpin was a bit jealous when Burpin saw it. Be happy for your car is great and that other guy is retarded.

While we are talking about insults, here is good one (I trust it's not one of those urban legends).  A guy at work was telling me how his buddy had a restored early 70's Monte Carlo for sale that he wanted $12K for.  Some guy came and looked at, then brought his mechanic to look at it, then finally brought his wife and kids to look at it.  He proceeded to tell him he would take it and counted out $1200 bucks.  He was promptly "tuned in".  Talk about out of touch.

 Don't worry about it Ghost, I get it all the time. My favorite is still "nice Charger" but at least it's still in the right family LOL
 Then again it's what makes me like Mopars even more. Everyone and there mother knows what a Camaro and a Mustang looks like, because they see them all day long.

I agree with "Burpin!" Best to just lay your hand on their shoulder, and explain the difference to them, if they are that handycapped that they still can't grasp the concept , then best to take a deep breath and walk away , count to ten , then POW , right in the Kisser ! ! ! LOL!

Oh, I explained the difference to him.  The guy is a diehard Chevy guy.  Drives a late 90s LT1 Camaro.  He said that Dodge wasn't much better than Ford. ::)
