Oh and the tanned boyz running around with their clapped out accords with a pair of bazooka's in the back driven with a pyramid/coustic/jensen/legacy amp at 100% clipping with the bazz boost at 20dbz at 45Hz. Oil canned drivers have the harmony of a international harvester clogged to the tines with mud laden husks and the tractor sounds better.

Best thing could happen is they rear end one of those F250 cabbies hard enough that their 6x9 sparkomatic triaxials backslap their brainless craniums and knock a few nickels loose. Providing they haven't smoked it first. :laugh:

I hate popped collars myself. But there is nothing wrong with polo shirts of any color. For someone to hate a type of shir tso bad it must be a reflection on a problem with themselves. In this case Im guessing polo shirts or pink are not flattering to you so you dislike those who do wear them. I could be wrong that was just my initial gut feeling. post pics of yoru fit and trim body if you would like to prove me wrong....either way I don't care and I still don't understand hating on a color....just spells personal issues.


1. I wear polos all of the time
2. I never wear pink, don't like it, never have, never will, despite my wife trying to get me to wear it
3. 6'2", 260, not "fit and trim", but I couldn't care less if you think thats all important
 
iPods definitely make the top of my list. People that look at my Creative mp3 player that costs half as much as an iPod either call it an iPod or a "low-quality iPod imitation" :disgust:.
 
sagging, trucker hats, and those crappy 4 inch thick foam rubber soled sandals short teenage girls wear to look taller. On the same note, people who pronounce target, tarshe' like they're french or something... makes me wanna ralph.
 
The media trying to turn retarted hip-hop "artists" into " mainstream":disgust: spokesmen to peddle their crap. Just utter garbage, FAR worse than this Emo fad.
 
Singer/Performer reality shows
Jillian Barberie of Fox News (goddam she's annoying)
Pre-teen girls that wear those stupid sneakers with the wheels in the sole.
Chrysler 300's
Blogs
Emo
War in the Middle East (yes, it is now a fad)

EMO/myspace sure, but what about popped collars? Jesus I want to go fix it for them everytime I see it. And by fix I mean rip the collar off and stuff it down their throats...

dear sir, I believe I shalt pop my collar on my pink polo shirt just to spite you. Because I'm just that fratty.

but seriously:
myspace
emo
atkins
ipods
ghetto rap/hip-hop
 
"pwned" or "shens".

I think this must be an overcompensation for people with a vocabulary or articulation disorder!

What happened to the old fashioned terms like "ass whoopin" or "bullshit"?

You guys have a lot of anger. Can't you live alongside fads that you aren't a part of? Does the existance of some EMO kids, gangsters or wanna-be gangsters, popped collars, reality TV shows or anything else really threaten you that much?

So which one are you? Gangsta with a popped collar? Maybe throw in some gender confusion to get that splash of Emo?

None, thank you very much. I guess not supporting everyone here in their quest to anonymously pick on strangers via the internet makes me EMO, though.

Your attempt to stand out of the crowd and be unique is quite emo. You had better start hating emo like the rest of us, otherwise you might as well call yourself one.

🙁...i like my honda...

More specifcially, rice. Dont tint the windows, put gullwing doors on it, a big muffler and stickers.

Yep, fvcking POS ricer sh1t on the street. Do whatever fvcked up stuff you want to your craptacular Civic, just leave the Godforsaken fart pipe off. Feel free to wear your dumbass baggy britches, turn your ballcap any way you choose, let us all enjoy your bad-ass gansta 'tude, let your 5X Tshirt envelope your stick like arms...we really dont care. But God, we beg of you, leave the bigger than your cock, chrome plated fart pipe in the trash can where it belongs.

If you are bound and determined to have a sh1tty sounding car, save yourself a trip to the Pep Boys "tuner aisle" and just get a fvcking sledgehammer and knock the stock exhaust off.
LMFAO

Emo sucks a lot.

The fad that it's cool to be an ignorant religious wackjob has also begun to annoy me. The Kansas schoolboard needs to be fired and their supporters need to be given a clue as to the definitions of science and education. Fine, believe in creationism and teach it to your own kids, but I'll be damned if you're going to dumb down real scientific teaching in favor of ignorance and faux science.

As far as internet fads go I hate the O RLY owl. Seriously, I hate it. The Ronald McDonald and the NEDM cat should team up and eat that fvckin owl.

O RLY?

Those huge sunglasses that everyone seems to be wearing... ugh.

Oh man, that's catching on around here too. The funny thing is that those girls think they look good, when they look absolutely ridiculous.

stunna shades man, stunna shades, not huge sunglasses. i'm not a supporter of them but i'm cool with them. and the point isn't trying to look good...yall need to get down to the bay (that's in cali) and see what's up...

I fvcking hate cell phones. Everyone is always messing with them during class, on the train, during movies, while walking, while eating... You'd think that people would know how to silence them during lecture, but there's always someone who's phone goes off and then they act all surprised and it takes em a full minute to turn it off. A few have the balls to actually ANSWER it! Assholes.

Cell phones piss me off royally! I mean, I'd be hanging out with someone I havent seen in a while, then randomly he or she would get called... then BAM, you're not hanging out, cuz some jackass is hogging your friend and you've got nobody to talk to!

Or if you're in a car and someone is talking on their cell, loud and obnoxiously, and nobody else can talk because of it - and the damn person WONT HANG UP!

I think what angers me most is that people are extremely RUDE with cell phones - not the phones themselves.
