What the hell happened to this thread? o_O

There we were, talking about presents for SO's and our sneaky ideas for spending less time and money next year and the train just fell the hell off the track.

Go find the relevant rule section and quote it for all of us... oh, you can't, because it doesn't exist. Only L&R has that rule.

Sorry, I assumed all the other sub forums were likewise protected...seems the right thing to me anyway...but I am a more ethical person than half these dirt bags that don't realize they are the problem.

Yeah you're right, when people are discussing cars it should stay private. What if people read that you had an M3 in a public forum, obviously you're keeping it on the down low.

Well, you know the old phrasing for when you assume. And no, logically, or ethically, or morally, there is no reason to keep the contents of any sub-forum private, except those of L&R. They're public, you can view them without even being logged in. Google has them all indexed.

Because it's been proven and anyone with half a brain knows I am not trolling. I don't expect a bartender to understand this which is why all you can do is react with the mob scene.

What have I lied about?

And anyone with a whole brain realized a long time ago just how big of a troll you really are.

4.7 0-60 and a 13.x quarter is all I need. If I wanted faster I'd have gotten a C63.

You were talking of 'bragging'...IMHO having one's car listed in every post and then a claim to be the head of AT's Muscle Car club is just that. That's why I said you were being ironic.

I fail to see me claiming to be the head of anything.

Also, I think you might be mixing up your words. I think "hypocrite" would be the word you are looking for, not "ironic".

Hypocritical is that you do it to begin with, ironic is that you are concerned when others are doing it.

Now you know.

Bolded - which is what you are claiming

Again, please show me where I claim to be the head of something?

Didn't know you were just the muscle car club's biggest fan, thought you were somehow important in it with all the promoting you are doing.

Guess I should have known.

I was thinking this morning, maybe I'll get the wife a remote starter for her car. Perhaps a belated Christmas present. Else one to keep in mind for next year.


Anyway, now that I've derailed the thread by posting a serious response to the OP's question,
OP: I got a coupon in my spam mail for 50% off a Rolex, and another coupon for 42% off a Rolex. In fact, I probably get about a dozen offers for Rolex watches every month. I could forward them to you if you want. :p
