Back story, in one paragraph:
Old guy who thinks he's an awesome author buys 996, informs air-cooled guys that 996 is better than their underpowered lawnmowers, informs 997 crowd that tip 996 is better than fat, slow PDK 997. People line up to kick him in the baunch. Allegedly buys and sells a number of other cars, though the stupid VW is the one we actually saw photos of. Vacillates between "ignore the unwashed masses" and "triggered: prolly gonna call you an a**hole." Has an unresolvable dilemma: caviar tastes, Section 8 lifestyle*.
*Section 8 of the Housing Act of 1937 (42 U.S.C. § 1437f), often called Section 8, as repeatedly amended, authorizes the payment of rental housing assistance to private landlords on behalf of approximately 4.8 million low-income households, as of 2008, in the United States. The largest part of the section is the Housing Choice Voucher program which pays a large portion of the rents and utilities of about 2.1 million households. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development manages Section 8 programs.

Just to be fair:
Schnell's backstory, in one paragraph:
Fat bastard with a decent vocabulary and no other redeeming qualities stalks elderly 996 owners and surprises them by throwing buckets of fecal text into their otherwise tidy threads. Has an amazing wife who has inexplicably stuck around for 22+ years. Owns a "luxury" sports car and a "near-luxury-class" sports car; when considered together, they are worth slightly less than a full tank of gas, yet there's no chance they will ever be sold or traded. Dog's name is technically Finn, though RL renamed him Pee Pee Eye a year or so ago. Pee Pee Eye is an Australian Labradoodle, just like Top Gear Dog back when Top Gear was worth an eighth of a sh*t*. Owns a software company that manages to be successful despite this affiliation. Has an unnatural, unhealthy obsession with gigging Johnny Irish and that elderly Brit hiding out in PA...
*Pee Pee Eye can play volleyball, knows "sidewalk" and about 30 other commands, and actually listens, and has a resale value of about $2K. So he is quite literally a more valuable asset than most of the cars I've had the misfortune of owning over the years. AND Johnny Irish's stupid VW.

That's f**king hilarious. I've been on many forums, and as such have met people of all colors, much like himself. Had it not been for him, your backstory would not exist, and I wouldn't have spat out my water. Very well written, but now I'm upset he is departing and I've missed the fun.

If we can come up with a decent enough pitch, I bet we could rope 'Cuda into the mix.

I am seriously kicking the idea around of some kind of rapid prototyping lab - a number of engineers I know are aware of the newer prototyping tools (additive 3D laser printing, CNC/milling, water jet/plasma cutters, etc. but don't have access to them or any expertise. I haven't started looking around to see how many of these already exist, though...what I don't want to do is start a machine shop version of yet another vape shop...

We're the biggest, diverse bunch of cantankerous, obsessive, belligerent, finicky, compulsive, sarcastic, overcritical, unpredictable, (and now vulgar), numb-nuts on the planet. But we like to have fun and not get worked up about lovin' the "worst 911" that Porsche every made. ha!
p.s. Did Kalash get banned for that X-rated story?

If he's calling you "gay" and you guys aren't in middle school, I'm kinda surprised he's not driving a kitted Corvette or a Viper (complete with plastic dangling *******) with the wind blowing in his lush mullet.
(There's probably a Playgirl under the seat...)
If you really want to crush his ego, find a track-prepped 986 to lap him with.
