Or do you also think it's slightly cool when you happen to look at the clock at exactly 9:11?

Funny, you seem to have thought of the Pcar, my first reaction was the NY World Trade Center.

I always say, "look what time it is".......guess I'm a dork too.......

gota911

Yes, to the first part!

Just kidding!

To be honest I can recall seeing 9:11 on the P-car clock only once in almost three years of ownership. No, I don't think you are a dork. It is cool when you see 9:11 on the clock.... any clock.

LOL it happens to me a lot On the cable box, in the car, and last night I was in a grocery store and the total at the cashiers was $9.11 I couldn't help but laugh

Maybe I'm the odd one, but I don't refer to my car as a 911. I always call it a 996. When people ask what kind of car I have, I almost always say 996. Then they say what is that. And I have to clarify.

Yep, you're a dork.

I have to admit to doing exactly what you've described. Only my wife has the nerve to tell me I'm a dork (which I depend on her to do).

Does anyone wonder what happens after the 999 has been introduced? I'll bet somebody on this list already knows the official answer.

Most people I know (non car enthusiasts of course) have really no idea what a 996 is. I usually say I drive a small German car.

I'll see your dorkitude and raise you one: One of my favourite radio stations in Toronto is JazzFM, which is at 91.1. I generally don't head to the office until after rush hour has calmed down, so I will routinely look down at my dash and see 9:11 on the clock and 91.1 on the radio. And be amused by this.

Don't know if you are, but I love the thread title!

I am also guilty, as recently as today...

For me it was always 9:11 or 9:44 since I used to have one of those a while back - glad I am not the only one!

...and THEN they call you a dork.

I only refer to my 996 as "the German one" to the few people that even know I own it and only to differentiate it from one of "the Japanese ones" I also own. Between people calling my Miata gay and cow-orkers worrying about what I make when they know I have a Porsche (boss drives a Gran Prix...), it's my little secret.

ls911

Yea, a bit on the dork side. I think, crap I'm way late.

missmy993

I'm a dork too! It happens all the time, 9-1-1- pops up, clocks, scoreboards, cash registers, timers, everywhere.
