Default The Turbo badges must add at least 50-60 HP

I don't understand why he stopped at the exterior, he should have spent another $25K to finish the interior.

Sorry, Vancouver, off to the ignore list for you.
You guys are brutal!

Just ask him politely and I'm sure he won't mind modifying his sig.

Let's see if works:

Hey Brett, your sig's a little loud for some of us older folks (>19 yrs of age). Could you please tone it down just a bit?

Thanks. I knew you'd understand.

Ben, it's not that he (Vancouver) is offensive, it's just that he provides nothing other than conversation to which I have no interest in. I admire him for coughing up the 18 bones to join the site but I think his contribution (other than casual conversation) is vitually nil to the purpose of the forum as well as others where he has been called out before for providing FALSE information. Now over in OT, he could go to town and fit right in.

No problem, s'all good.
haha, no honey needed, I can understand.

LVDell - I don't know what your problem with me is, but your following me around the site and badmouthing me is childish. Quit trying to start things, and grow up. As well, I cruise lots of technical information in the 928/951 forums, as I will be purchasing one of these in about a year, give or take. I don't post on those topics because I have nothing to say. If my 'false' information you are referring to is about gasoline, funny, I was asked questions about it by you and I elaborated and told you my experiences, and you seemed to quiet down after that. Perhaps I should just go into long-winded needless justifying of every post I make?
Finally, like I said the last time you had an issue with me - Grow up, and instead of badmouthing me to others, show some tact and instead of publicly putting yourself on display, bring up any issues you have with me via rennlist's private messaging service.
Sorry you don't like me, I guess you were never young and into automobiles.

~Brett

I didn't say it was anything interesting, but long story short I had a rabbit since I was about, oh, since I was about 6? He lasted 11 years - not bad considering the average life expectancy is only 8-12 years. Anyways, he was well trained I had a little collar and leash for him and could take him for walks! And every single girl, when I took him out, would be all "OMG" - young, old, didn't matter. So basically, me and my friends ended up having one of these lame jokes where Butterscotch had a mind control over females, blah blah blah. hahaha. And he was going to take over the world. After he died - me and my friend were posting on an internet forum and we were like "let's make his legend live on!" and so copying and pasting the bunny to gain world domination was my friend's idea (although I suspect he may have stolen it from somewhere else on the internet, not really sure)
And since then, for the past two years, we've been posting him in our signatures on every internet forum. And on a few webforums, upwards of 75% of the members had him in their signatures! So, we have this weird thing and that's what the bunny is all about.
Again, didn't say it was entertaining

This ignore thing is pretty cool since all you see is the user ID of the person you ignored and a message that says they posted something. Very refreshing to not have to listen to the childish "I have to have the last word" tirades that Brett goes on. Let me guess (since I can't see his posts)....his chain was rattled and felt the need to say at least 2 things that he said in the past. First is probably to take it to PM. Am I right? Probably so, but as I told him last time, PM will not solve it. Giving out inaccurate info is dangerous and he was called out on it. I don't need to say again though I having nothing against him just nothing that I want to listen to. He probably said as well, something like "why do you keep following me?" Am I right on that as well? I am willing to bet the farm on that one. Simple. I am not following him, rather he posts all day in ALL forums and you can't escape Brett and that damn bunny. And the bonus? He probably also had some sort of condescending reverse psycholgoy rant of growing up since deflection of ignorance and youth is his specialty. So, life with him in the ignore bin is not good nor bad. Just rather a necessity.

So? How many did I get correct?

Still, it was good to read about just the same. I always enjoy reading real life stories.

Now if there had been a Playboy Bunny angle to it, you might have a few of us copying and nailing such a bunny to our sigs.
