People on Craigslist...

I went to see an Audi b5 s4 that was "running rough..."
It was a total turd that the guy was trying to pull a fast one. It "ran rough" and he apparently meant that it ran on 2 or 3 cylinders and after it ran for a minute or two, it died in a cloud of oil smoke out the exhaust tips and from somewhere between the motor and firewall.
It had been wrecked, he said that he "thinks it was hit in the front" and that he "didn't know who did the repairs..." Well I'd say that nobody did repairs, they just put headlights back in the holes held in by the headlight wires and the bumper was held in with expanding Home Depot foam...
That wasn't the worst part, my mechanic friend I'd brought along pulled a spark plug to do a compression test and the whole end was melted and had bits of piston attached to it hahahahaha I offered 600bucks and he's like I can go to 1900. I was like uhhhhh no, k thanks bye, have fun waiting for another sucker!
He clearly knew that the motor was hosed and was playing dumb by the things he said that didn't add up. I think the only thing he said that was true was that the interior was clean. Poor car had been passed around and had gotten a bad tune or tank of gas.

-My Sony Xperia Z being dead before my contract ends
-Temporarily having a loaner phone provided by my KPNprovider (I have insurance on my Sony)
-Noticing that my loaner phone (own brand; KPN, not sure which manufacturer) is even worse than my old freakin Sony turd:

1: While playing music, it just randomly stops during songs and then stalls
2: I cannot make movieclips longer than 6 seconds
3: Playing videos makes the phone stall.
3: The reaction time of the screen is slow. Like 'Thick shit draining through a straw' -slow
4: It doesn't allow me to set a new ringtone. So now I have this super gayish women voice singing "ladadida ladadida ladadidum" when someone calls.
5: LIKE IT COULD NOT EVEN GET ANY WORSE THAN THAT; I cannot answer phone calls!
So that annoying lady in my pocket will sing untill the asshole calling me stops ringing.
6: I threw the phone agains the wall after not being able to answer an important phone call that I was expecting, because they dialled with an "UNKNOWN NUMBER"
NOW THE SCREEN OF THE FUCKING TURD IS BROKEN AND MY INSURANCE DOESN'T COVER IT !!
7: I NOW HAVE TO PAY TO REPAIR A PHONE THAT DIDN'T EVEN WORK IN THE FIRST PLACE

I mean, you did throw the phone.

You could have called up the insurance company and complained that the phone you have isn't meeting your needs.

The fact that there are so many fucking things I want to do to my motorcycle and I can't afford any of it.

Yes I know. But I felt the urge to throw something. Yesterday I threw an apple (not the electronics thing, just an actual apple), and it shattered into multiple pieces. Felt good and didn't cost me a limb. Should do that more often

This thraed needs a bump! Surely we're getting some new built up annoyances!

People that drive in the PNW. If it rains, they all freak the freak out and crash. THe other day there was a minor accident and they left the cars in the middle of the damn freeway causing it to take 45 mins to go 3 miles. When I passed them I nearly yelled at them to get their crap out of the road wtf.

People in the PNW, that decided that the PNW is so fucking cool. The Northwest hats, shirts, decals, #pnw, #nwlife, #upperleft. These are the same assholes that said that the PNW sucked and they were moving to Cali but failed at life.

hahahhaha, so true! Freakin upperleft I do like it here for the most part, during the time from about now 'till October I **** the rain and constant greyness/dark half the rest of the year. I could never move to CA though, too many retards and stupid laws about everything

Am i the only one that is annoyed by this negative camber/wheel fitting game?

If you want to fit a set of wheels, why not get a set in (to this community) normal specs.
And not 18x9 ET-13 with a 5x114 pcd with a 25mm adapter to 5x120 or what ever.
But then realise: "Oh, i need like 20° negatic camber..."
And then think: "That's ok, it'll be fine."

It's beyond me...

If you want the lip to clear the fender, a bit doesn't hurt, maybe a bit more than that.
Even a lot more, like -8°, if you can pull it of...

[thegriffin]

this might sound a bit strange but my pet peeve or **** is
-leeving the toilet seet up
but the worst one is LEAVING THE STERIO VOLUME BETWEEN AN HALVE WAY TO 10 NUMBER(5) AND A 10!!!!!
what I meen is I hat it when people leave a volume setting at 6 or 16 or 26 etc....(above 5) or if they will leave it at 8 or 18 or 28 etc..... ITS LIKE MAKE UP YOUR FOOKING MIND AND CRANK THE MOTHERFOOKER does anyone else think this or am I just crazy?

Civic drivers. I've decided it. I don't like to lump people together, but it's rare to find a genuine car guy that owns a civic and knows it's limitations and respects others.

I still respect the cars when modded properly, but have lost all respect for the drivers due to the vast majority of dickheads that drive them.

The other day a v6 camaro and newer civic coupe decided to try to street race on a busy public street in the middle of the day. I was minding my business going to speed limit when I see these cars coming up pretty quickly in my rear view. The camaro slowed down and didn't get close to me, and the civic followed suit. I turn on my motherfucking indicator to get over and the civic guns it and gets next to me to keep me from getting over, he's laughing like the little 16 year old cockface motherfucker he is, so I gas it and get in front of him, he's not having it and decides to lay on the horn and ride me. I brake check the little fucker and he decides to cut over onto the wrong side of the road and get in front of me and tries to do the same. Because civics are such mundane cars with no good attributes his little brake check didn't mean shit and I continued on my way after he turned onto a main street. Oh yeah, he had plastidipped wheels, soooo custom...

Today a civic sedan driver was doing 35 in a 45 and I decide to pass her at the fucking speed limit in the next lane. That bitch speeds up to 55 until I have to merge with her and she slows the fuckdown.

This was all in the span of 24 hours...

When I got my genesis coupe some kid in an civic coupe thought his "type R" civic coupe with a d16y8 put in by the PO was faster than my car. He was talking maaaad shit about how he has a b18c, how the type R badges all over were real, and how the harnesses on his stock seats made them racing seats. Rolled him from 5th from 40mph up to 80.

Then when civic owners get tired of their shitty cars, they get gencoupes and mod them with made in china parts and fake ass wheels, then go street racing only to realize the 2.0t w/o a tune and bolt ons is pretty slow.

Fuck them.

It's a worldwide epidemic

I personally would love a VT commodore sedan here in the states. Drop it on air, some wide work eurolines and subtle lip kit and widened fenders. Unfortunately perfectly nice and good cars get ruined by disgusting, trashy people.




Another thing that pisses me off is the notion that you need maaaad horsepower to be a professional drifter. I spoke to the guys who built Tanner Foust's old s13 drift car, and they said that if you can't drift that around a course in that then you shouldn't be drifting at all. I was genuinely surprised how much thought went into that car, with the suspension, engine, brakes and chassis all in balance. I have pics on my insta, I might post them if you ask nicely.
