You really need to find something more important in your life to be concerned with.
I do, I'm concerned about reading about cars. What's your problem with having a thread dedicated to this subject? Saved us having multiple threads about.. Easier browsing for us all.TheEnd said:
It might be a good idea, so everyone can stick together and all complain about fog lights and DRLs together.
Another good idea would be "Thinking of starting a post called 'Is this a scam' ?", and as soon as you click on it, it just flashes up YES in a big font.
Ooh, and maybe a thread for people who want to buy a particular car and start a "what car" thread that seems like it's a discussion but is basically just them looking for more reasosns to buy the car they have already decided to buy, while telling everyone else that they have both spare money and no logical reasoning.Another good idea would be "Thinking of starting a post called 'Is this a scam' ?", and as soon as you click on it, it just flashes up YES in a big font.
And another thread for people who will always be negative about any thread started by anyone else, even if it means they have to continually change sides on arguments.
And another thread for people who will always irrationally defend any particular car, manufacturer, motoring show, driving error, journalist, badge, brand, mechanical device or tyre type regardless of the number of times they are begged to shut up.
And one last thread that all the people I dissagree with, or find stupid, or proudly ignorant, or unable to form an elegent argument, or have a forum alias I irrationally hate, or put links up to things that I don't want to watch but have to start watching anyway to find out I didn't want to watch them, or use "price point" out of context, or claim any new car is "too expensive" despite not knowing what it cost to make or what marketing actually is, or make stupid suggestions about impossible technologies, or use the plural of the word "simple".
Yeah.
Or, when I realise I'm fed up with this forum because I find I've sat through it for yet another complete cycle of all the recuring threads and irritants, I could just stop coming here for a couple of years until I've forgotten that the very last thing I'm interested in is other people's opinions.
I think I'll do that again. Soon. Maybe after my tenth anniversary (I'm quietly expecting PH to take me out to dinner somewhere nice and maybe bake me a cake).

The guy in front of me at the lights this morning didn't take his foot off the brake pedal and apply the handbrake.
As a result, i'm now blind, and am dictating this to my minion, to type for me.
Am I doing it right?
Only if you continued to stare directly into the brake light.As a result, i'm now blind, and am dictating this to my minion, to type for me.

Did you click the "Membership reward counter" when you joined?
If so, you should be coming up nicely to the bonus scheme.
I think it's updated now, and you get a MX5 experience driving day, but they lower the Pay per Post increase to 20% because of cutbacks.
Oh no, I joined when the internet was still for fun, before the faceless suits and their corporate take overs.If so, you should be coming up nicely to the bonus scheme.

Also I don't need a MX5 experience driving day because i still have the MX5 I used to give other people MX5 driving experience in.
You think the faceless suits will still take me out to dinner? Actually now I've thought about it I'm not sure if that wouldn't be weird. Certainly it would mess with the trying-to-seem-normal level of eye contact I've had to learn.
Maybe they'll just send me a cake. Chocolate for preference, and no sneaky hiding fruit in it.

This is EXACTLY what Muppet needs.
And, possibly to cheer up a bit, or equivalent.
No, what I needed was it not to take two entire days of e-mails, and four days from my original text, for you to tell me if you were available for the free track event I was trying to give you.And, possibly to cheer up a bit, or equivalent.
You even accept gifts with spite.
Don't get me wrong, I'm impressed, we all are, it's just infuriating.
