  1. Oh you just reminded me of another thing. It's not just the fast lane. You're supposed to drive in the RIGHT lane if you're not passing anybody. It pisses me off when a column of people doing 105 km/h in the middle lane of a three-lane highway, there's nobody in the right lane and I'm in the fast lane trying to get around them at 115 km/h, with a speeder stuck behind me. I sometimes even throw my right signal on to try to get the morons to move over so I can let the speeder by, but most people don't pay attention. Gave a moron in a Ram pickup the finger for doing this, and him and his buddies followed me around for the next 50 km all giving me the finger when they passed me. Some people just don't get it.
  2. Wow... I've never heard of a Cuban, Equadorian or Ethiopian restaurant. I thought Ethiopians were starving and ate whatever they could find??? For me it's Japanese. I tend to have sushi at least once a week. Thai I like too, but that's a much rarer thing.
  3. Correction... Done! The whole thing! WOOT! listening: Radiohead - Lucky. Unlike most Radiohead fans, I've always liked OK Computer better than The Bends. Can't believe OK Computer is over 10 years old now.
  4. The first six minutes of "Free Bird" - over and over again. Trying to pass it on Guitar Hero on Expert, its the only song left and it's going to kill me. The intro lulls you into submission and then the insane solo comes and shoves the stars and bars up... there.
  5. Try not to be too hard on yourself. The best thing you can do is to take it as a lesson but try not to dwell on "what could have been".
  6. Hmmm... I still have to pay for gas and insurance? Maybe a Solstice, if insurance didn't rape me? I think that's about it. I really have no desire for anything larger than a 4-cyl.
  7. article How many vaginas can one man destroy? Cripes.
  8. Rocky Raccoon - The Beatles. Love the white album.
  9. This pretty much sums up my list too. Now, on the flip side, things I am guilty of that piss other people on this board off: - Cell while driving - Loud music while driving - Coffee while driving - Eating while driving (sushi probably being the most bizarre) I am always extra cautious / nervous when I know I'm distracting myself with one of the above. When it comes down to something important happening on the road and I'm doing something else, the "something else" gets dropped. Literally. I've thrown my cell across my car and retrieved it later. I've spilled food on myself, pull over and clean that up later. I just prioritize and pay attention to the road at that point.
  10. "4-door coupe". The explanation that makes about as much sense as "one-piece bikini".
  11. I think somebody spent to much time in an '82 Cherokee before designing the interior.
  12. So... you can get a 4-cyl gasoline 3-series, but not a 4-cyl gasoline 1-series? That's beyond retarded.
  13. 1 - Blackberry 2 - Lagoon Blue 3 - Cranberry 4 - Blue Jay 5 - Bottomless Black 6 - Lake Rock Grey 7 - Sage Green
  14. I've developed this vaguely Russian-sounding phrase that I say every time some angry-looking homeless people approach me. Works every time!
  15. Well... I know a guy who just started at Union Gas who's getting 7 days/year. Also knew a girl working at a competing software company in Toronto where they got two weeks... but essentially if you didn't earn all that with unpaid overtime, they'd find a reason to fire you.
  16. Saw an Audi R8 today. Dealer plates. Was going over a rough set of railroad tracks right next to it - the thing rattled A LOT, I could hear it from inside my car with the window up. Is this just because of the carbon fibre? Because of a taught sport suspension? What gives?
  17. Yes, my company (and most like it) start you with 2 weeks (10 days), earning an extra day per year with the company up to 4 weeks total (after 10 years).
  18. 1. 1991 Pontiac Trans Sport - white Given to me by my grandfather. Traded for Sunfire. 2. 2001 Sunfire - black Bought new Aug 2001. Totalled in rollover, Oct 2002. -- 8 months without car -- 3. 1999 Lumina - beige Bought used in Apr 2003. Traded for Cobalt. 4. 2005 Cobalt - yellow Bought new in Aug 2005. Still driving it, now with just over 80,000 km.
  19. Give me 4 weeks of vacation like the rest of the world and shaddup.
  20. I found the screen very hard to see (as did the people with me), and therefore the plot was almost completely lost. All that was left was getting violently bumped around and thrown into the people you're sitting with in something vaguely resembling a DeLorean.
  21. I went on the one in Orlando. It sucked. I like the movie even, and I still thought the ride sucked.
