Default Odd human behavior

Some one, please tell me why:

1. After bying 996, I wash my car on every week?
2. Stupid grin comes to my face everytime I drive it?
3. My co workers look at me diffrently?
4. I spend more and more time on this forum?

LOL @ co-workers..... seems they think they all have to tell you a "racing story" to still be your friend

strange

careful washing your car, so many people with good intentions destroy thier paint - do some reading on Autopia

I just wash my car with autoglym bodyshampoo and hot water.

I'll let the pros do the rest

Bigges concern to my co-workers seems to be the fuel economy... Those cheap **stards

omg - whats up with that question!!

well, nice, what kinda milage does it get....

Here is what I use as an answer...

"Well, I havent checked it recently, but a friend of mine was able to get his down to under 10... I hope someday to drive it that well, I am sure mine is still WAY too high"

that usually shuts em up
