Are there any PHers with the mini boxing gloves who wish to attempt to justify their choice of interior ornament?

C'mon, out with it.

I'll bite.

I have a pair hanging from my rear-view mirror, they are an air-freshener apparently. They were a gift from my Father-In-Law's wife, so I did the right thing and used them. They are not what I would normally use.

Am I a pikey?

That depends, d'ya like dags?

What's wrong with a nice magic tree?

Or even better, one of those air fresheners that look like little wooden pieces of fruit?

Okay let us break this one down.

What is the intended purpose of a rear view mirror?

Is it:-

A) To hang st and tat off,

Or,

B) To see behind you without having to turn your head through 180 degrees.

I'm not necessarily advocating the hanging of said items from the wing mirror, rather suggesting a more pleasant (imo) alternative to the gloves.

I for one would rather have nowt.

Pet hate of mine, not sure why.

Me too, although oddly the smelly foot shaped thing the missus has in her car hanging from the rear view mirror escapes my attention now. What I've never understood though is why people hang garters from rvm's? Are they surpressing their transvestism?

I can't stand having anything hanging either. I've seen some people with CD's hanging - thats got to cause a massive blind spot surely.

Anyone remember Feu Orange air freshners??

CDs are supposed to fool the handheld speed guns by deflecting the signal giving a false reading - Its bks.

Satnavs stuck under the mirror with the trailing wire going across the dashboard and wrapped round the steering wheel is another.


What about these sodding teddy bears all over the parcel shelf? What the hell is that all about?

[dudleybloke]

i admit to have had furry dice in every car I'v owned.
my excuse is they act as a primative g-meter!

Yesterday I said:

Hmm, moved to the lounge eh?

I thought it was a motoring-releated topic.

And now back to GG!

Christ you lot are more indecisive than my missus.

I do, they smelt fantastic.

Boxing gloves is just someone saying how hard they are, usually shaven headed fatties in old Pajeros.

"Points towards insecurity" - According to some phsycologist who appeared on a car related show a while back...

[J4CKO]

What does a dash full of assorted teddies, dolls and other crap say ?

In my experiece its always the cleaning lady at any given workplace, usually a tidy, three generations ago fiesta special edition of some sort, usually Dark Red with aftermarket cheap wheel disks.

[useyourdellusion]

As above.

Has there ever, in the history of the world, ever been anyone who has these who isn't a horrible pikey cwnt?

CHAVtastic!

I'm surprised you don't see more good quality car models/kits on dashboards. Closest I've seen in a while is an F40 that looks like it was out of a kinder egg inside a ford mondeo.

Actually, I can go one step better than that as I've seen THE most hideous Chav-bucket rice-boy Celica around Windsor and Slough, not only with boxing gloves dancing around the windscreen, but also sporting a bloody great stupid dragon sticker over the entire bonnet area. What a sad dick!
