    How to Talk Right - Lesson #1 The Right Vocabulary

    Great stuff Joel, I'm still LMAO :bigthumb: I'm just missing the term "communist" in the writeup, I think some guys here associated it with liberals too. One of Nick's most outstanding capabilities as he has just proven once again... j/p with you, Nick :D I would even extend the irony point to...

    Bump Keying

    Yeah, that's quite disturbing. This PDF file is really interesting: www.toool.nl/bumping.pdf I tried it myself a couple of days ago with a standard lock I had laying around. Took one of the keys that came with it and filed it down with "key files" from a DIY store. I couldn't quite get it to...

    Supra vs Boxter - I know

    Yep, Boxsters don't seem to be very fast in a straight line, but they're supposed to be really quick around corners. It's still a Porsche after all, even if it's only a baby Porsche :-p

    Rant: Im over this spoon-fed tobacco ignorance crap!

    Well, I personally wouldn't mind dying, but I surely would mind the years of illness before the dying :D Same with seatbelts... it's not that I buckle up because I'm afraid of dying, but because I'm afraid of becoming quadriplegic or comatose or something. As for smoking, I also can't stand...

    Was it Racism ? Hope this an an isolated thing :(

    I agree that the "lady"'s remark was really uncalled for and very rude. If I had been in your situation, I probably wouldn't even have known what to say. There are many 2nd generation immigrants over here too, but I'd never strike on the idea of telling them to chatter in German :wtf: As for...

    4.5-20 billion years old?

    The point is that you can't prove God is real, just like you can't prove he's not real. BTW which "god" are we talking about here? ;) The Christian God, Allah, Shiva, Ra, Krishna, Zeus, Chalchihiutlicue, ...? If at least all the believers on this planet could agree on one concept of "god", but...

    4.5-20 billion years old?

    Cliffnotes of Nick's post: Some guy got a few magma samples from Mount St.Helens which were formed after the outbreak in 1980 and had a laboratory do some K-Ar (Potassium-Argon) dating on them to see how appropriate the method really is. The results ranged from 340,000 to 2.8 million years...

    F'ing flies, just killed one (pics).

    LouKY: perfect grammar and spelling, the wording is just a little uncommon :bigthumb: NDBoost: he said "farting = dead fly", I hope that's what he meant to say :D

    I just fart in their general direction. Works 100%.

    Middle East Crisis

    Hypocrisy :D Ironic OTOH is who used to support and feed radicals like Osama Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein etc. in the first place when it seemed advantegeous. But that's another topic. And I'm quite surprised, I always thought those "nuke 'em all, this will solve all our problems"...

    My Doors Spontaneously Chirp At Me... WTF?

    That's rather normal, your previous carrier was probably just using another frequency band (1900MHz instead of 850MHz). Cell phones working on a lower frequency tend to induce audible noise into electrical systems whenever the phone is sending or receiving something.

    Where did the Mk 2 & 3 get their styling?

    ...and Lotus is using the 1.8 litre 190hp Toyota 2ZZ-GE engine (used in Celica & Corolla) in their Elise/Exige, slightly retuned for more torque :)

    Well I can only speak for Germany and Switzerland, but at least in those countries, the Supra's yellow fog lights are rather standing out. A buddy of mine here in Krautland was even pulled over once by a cop and almost got a "fix-it" ticket because of the yellow fog lights :D My buddy was...

    Wait, do you really have to turn on the headlights on USDM Supras for the fog lights to work? On Euro MKIIIs you only have to switch on the parking lights. Like this. This is definitely stock on Euro cars.

    TurboWarrior is right; at least in the Euro fogs, there is just a yellow glass cover over the bulbs. The bulbs themselves are white :) I guess they're the same as the JDM fog lights...
