Well, you could show them a picture of a Mustang. On the other hand, you could show them a picture of an AMC Pacer. :?
If you call the Pacer a cool car, I will come over to North Cali, with a bottle of frozen cola (hehey!) and hit you in the face.
No seriousity intended.
The Gremlin was cooler though. You could get a V8 in it.
Hey, it's an AMC; they where all wierd. And who wouldn't want a tiny little car that you could stick a great big V8 in? It's way better than one of those old school viking boats or whatever you guys rock up there anyway :lol: .It doesn't matter, it's still a f*cking piece of s*it, looking like a dog poo, with the most stupid name in the entire known universe. I'd rather stick a big bottle of cola into my anal cavity than buy a Pacer.
I have highlighted the key word in your statement.We were completely bad ass, and you better belive it!
Lol, the whole "sailing across the Atlantic" thing is pure speculation. I'll go build a supercharged big-block powered jet boat with my hand tools, because that's the American way; we'll take your idea, then make it haul ass and guzzle gas .And the long boats were great. I challenge you to build a boat out of timber, using hand tools, that can sail across the Atlantic, while navigating after the stars!
We were completely bad ass, and you better belive it!
A little more on topic, I used to keep a big Mag-Lite in my car. That thing was great. A light, hammer and self-defense tool all in one simple water and shock proof package. It wasn't fire proof though lol. Car fire killed mine. Come to think of it, the case was still okay, maybe it could have been rebuilt...Austere said:On a side note; the next time someone tells you about 'crappy American workmanship' just give them a good, swift bonk on the head with a Mag-Lite.
Pff. We still are. We can survive driving in snow, you don't. We have Hans Willhelm Steinfeldt. Who is Steinfeldt? He's an foreign correspondant, in 1991, he was the only western journalist in Vilinius, and every single western media bought his reports.I have highlighted the key word in your statement.
Not at all, there has been found proof of Viking settlements in Northern America. And most boats use outboards, right? We invented those.Lol, the whole "sailing across the Atlantic" thing is pure speculation. I'll go build a supercharged big-block powered jet boat with my hand tools, because that's the American way; we'll take your idea, then make it haul ass and guzzle gas .
You're confusing me with a Californian.Pff. We still are. We can survive driving in snow, you don't.
You're confusing me with a Californian.
Aren't schools closed when snow starts falling, at least in some parts?You're confusing me with a Californian.
lol not here! The only way schools and such are closed is if there is a blizzard and plows can't clear the roads. if school buses can make it to and from school they don't close.Aren't schools closed when snow starts falling, at least in some parts?
It's sort of a local joke. it seems every time a bit of precipitation falls out here the people blocking up the lanes are from california, so everyone curses and the "damned californian idiots" for holding up traffic.There is snow in California. Go a little outside Los Angeles and you will find mountains with snow on them.
Female friend of mine was in the US of A as an exchange student, they had wind we would define as "a slight breeze", and all studends were hearded into the hallways and told to sit down.
To be honest, I have no idea, but she told me it wasn't tornado warning, and if it was, she is 19 years old, speaks excelent English, so I guess she would understand quite a simple sentence such as "there's a tornado comming" or something.Where in the US? Midwest? If so think tornado warning.
Nice school.The only reason my school in Orlando shut down was for hurricane warnings and bomb scares.
