These threads make me cringe.

 

OP posts up with excitement, not knowing he's using a product not really accepted by car enthusiasts in attendance.

 

Masses give him some shit for it.

 

OP doesn't realize the culture here, fights back.

 

Masses, who will usually allow a faux pas slide if someone admits ignorance and claims an intent to do better, react even more harshly to OP.

 

Vicious cycle begins, and OP's self-fulfilling prophecy is ultimately realized.

Then why didn't you? I'll tell u what. I'll be the bigger person figuratively speaking and possibly physically. I'll end it at that. And what is an op?

 

Orignal poster, thread starter, original post, etc

 

And lol at physical dimensions.

No, believe me, I get it. I'm all for defending yourself. Just don't get too bent out of shape. The guys here aren't jerks, it just seems that way. For better or worse, this place (CR) shows a lot of "tough love." It's kind of the culture. Not saying it's good or bad, it just is what it is. Over time, you learn to accept it, roll with it, and even embrace it. Think of it as one big, very dysfunctional family.

I play Xbox, play basketball and lift weights to pass the time. What do you do?

 

He armor alls his house.

 

Gabe, does anyone from here actually play basketball? or just post that they do?

 

Out of shape currently, but hoping to get back into it soon.

I'm 6'4", I better have picked up a basketball in my lifetime. Hold the stereotypes tho because it could get racial really quick. I'm half black.
