nothing here in MT that ive seen is that extreme
mostly just "shopping cart spoilers and trash can exhaust"
whats the most irritating? rice on non-"rice-burner" cars
at school there is a new camaro with a foot tall spoiler, huge exhaust, black to mirror tint, chrome wipers, 20+" rims ETC ETC ETC...AND it's only a V6 car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
makes me want to go home and get my go kart and race him...i'd prolly beat him in a 0-20 race...but thats my top speed
Oh!!! i think our Honda 50cc would be more degrading to race, AND its almost as fast

1) more drag= faster ....what, it doesnt??
2) maybe people will think it's functional.... what, the rear windshield gives it away??
3) it looks so kool!! ... really?? it doesn't??
...I just don't understand some people

"(A cell of) rice appears to contain about 50,000 genes, compared with about 35,000 for humans." — The Wall Street Journal, April, 2002
HUMANS INSIST THEY ARE NOT DUMBER THAN RICE
Many Believed to Be Correct
San Diego, Calif. (SatireWire.com) — Word that genetic researchers have discovered a cell of rice contains more genes than a human cell has caused widespread outrage as people across the globe attempt to prove that humans are easily as smart as a grain of rice
In Edmonton, Canada, 34-year-old Alan Snigget was one of many average humans who devised intelligence tests to discredit the implication that rice is more evolved. The postal worker began by taping a grain of rice to a brick wall — "but lightly, so it could move if it had to" — then hopping behind the wheel of his 1994 Dodge pickup truck. After honking several times to give fair warning, Snigget drove at high speed directly into the rice. According to eyewitnesses, however, the rice never moved.
Said one Edmonton police officer who observed the scene: "Stupid rice."
As in Snigget's case, humans have managed to prevail in almost every test. In Montgomery, Ala., state employee Rodney Lopat said he took "two out of three" in a geography quiz against the allegedly brainy grain. And in Aberdeen, Scotland, lorry driver Duncan McCann is confident he will win a chess match that began three days ago. Asked why the game was taking so long, McCann explained that the rice is using the white pieces. "I'm still waiting for it to make the first move," he said.
RICE RIOTS
While most man vs. grain confrontations have been peaceful, a few have devolved into violence. Most notably, rice riots erupted yesterday in Germany after an angry crowd of National Front youths spotted a man who, they decided, looked like a piece of rice. After chasing the man for two blocks, the throng grew bored, but managed to salvage an otherwise disappointing afternoon by ransacking a Japanese restaurant.
In response, the Rev. Jesse Jackson called for a boycott of any food product companies that differentiate between white and brown rice.
The press, meanwhile, has generally denounced the findings. In a front-page editorial, the Straits Times of Singapore questioned whether researchers had taken cells from a representative cross-section of humans, or just actor Robert Blake. Expressing its anger, USA Today called the report "as useless as studies insisting there is a widespread dumbing down of America," and included a series of colorful graphs and charts to illustrate its point.
If any one sentiment prevails, however, it is the belief in human superiority. To that end, CNN.com released the results of a poll asking "Are humans dumber than rice?" A full 51 percent of respondents voted no, while only 15 percent clicked yes. The remaining 34 percent accidentally clicked the wrong button, panicked, and deleted their browsers

I've seen Type R stickers on Mustangs. 
But the worst has to be the owner of an F-250. That's right, a pick-up truck. On his Ford F-250 with a lift kit and big *** tires, he put the Cadillac crest with "Escalade" on the tailgate. He also put the Lexus 'L' on the right front quater panel under the F-250 and the Cadillac crest on the left quarter panel.
I wish I had pictures to show you this. I was beside myself with laughter.

I just came across a thread on another forum that reminded me of a third aspect of riciness that ties the other two: DIY mods gone horribly awry...
Why spend all that money on undercarriage neons when you can just go to Home Depot and get some fluoroescent bulbs?
Come to think of it... this is the most annoying mod, methinks. Which is a shame, really... The guy had an otherwise nice looking Accord!

FAKE AIR VENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
OH MY GOD. If you engine is in the front...why does your car have huge inlets in the rear????? NO!!! Dont even tell me its for brake cooling on your cookie-sized drums. Non-functional hood-scoop counts too. ESPECIALLY if its not on the hood. If you have air vents on the bumper, and they arent cut out...gotta go!
OH OH...the other one i hate!!!! Brake Dust covers that LOOK like DISC BRAKES!!!!!! Oh no. Brakes are the most important part of the car! Dont pretend you can stop, you are only fooling yourself.
