Is it Just Me?

Years ago my gf's roommate asked me if I like NASCAR. I told him not really. I mean the cars are pretty, it sounds cool on high volume. there's lots of drinking involved, and the wrecks are fun to watch, but it wasn;t something I would ever really do. He was really into it and asked me to watch it for a few minutes. About a minute in they were talking about some driver named Dick Trickle and I started laughing and making fun of his name. He got pretty upset. Is it just me? I mean, was old Dick one of the pioneers of trolling? Is his name really Richard, or is it really Dick, and we have his parents to thank? DICK TRICKLE, and the guy never even noticed! Those NASCAR fans are serious fans.
Didn't the Scientologists make a movie about his brother Cole, and how 'rubbing was racing'?

I'm with you Clayton. I just don't see the appeal. The whole idea of people driving around a track turning left for like 4 hours straight just doesn't register as entertaining to me. I'd rather be watching a fight, or if I'm just relaxing, maybe a poker tournament.

LOL, SunnyJim. Never saw it for the aforementioned reason. Were they really clowning his name? Since I posted this I looked him up and apparently the guy did himself a couple years ago. Sad.

@ClaytonBigsby This is how I feel about ALL sports. They're so boring that when they're on TV, they just don't hold my attention, so I focus on the ugly hair, bad uniform choice (what IS it w// all the neon basket ball uni's?) and their names….

I mean seriously

So, I'm finally over my latest break up (2 weeks ago). I've been doing my best to behave, and not be bitter, but I just heard that he is trying to date my ex. Is he trying to fuck with my head? I mean, Is it just me? I think that is some foul shit. Is he trying to play on my emotions just to get my attention or is he seriously interested? I know for a fact that he has said, many times, in front of me AND my friends that he would never touch a boy like him. Is this something I should acknowledge? Or just let go? Because, the bitch inside of me wants to start the hugest shit-fight ever for what, I consider, to be a very creepy move.

Totally normal, Pinny. Dick move (sorry for the double entendre).

If he liked you, it stands to reason he would like your ex because they are kind of like you (the reason you were together to begin with). It could also be just to be a dick.
Two exes, Kemo. Let them have each other and keep moving on.

Much love

I dunno, the only time I have ever considered doin that, it was to fuck with their head.

Fuck it, I'm gonna start my own thread for those of us who wonder, "Is it Just me?"

My car needs some front end work and I can't/won't pay someone else to do it, because I'm always afraid they aren;t really doing anything and just charging me. I've never done tie rods, ball joints, cv joints, control arms, etc. I'm going to go to a junk yard and practice on those cars. Is it just me?
We built a 30' x 40' garage, with easily $20K+ worth of tools for hobby use, but also because i don't trust people working on my cars..only thing I won't do is rebuild transmissions or set up rear/front differentials...and body work..I HATE bodywork. I'm about to do a full suspension rebuild on my daily driver, then start a frame up build of a pickup for winter/offroad use..I'll be doing it all from sanding the frame to welding up reinforcements/crash bars, new floorboards, custom modded flatbed..Is it just me?

Yeah fuck mechanics I had to change 1 ball joint asked how long it would take them they said " At least 2 hours" I'm like fuck that grabbed the part ran home 15 minutes it took me to jack the car up and all. I will go to them if I got a problem I can't figure out but they tell me the part I'm gone. One time they wanted to charge me $200 to change a simple part come to find out that part was good they would have changed that then charged me to do the other part fuck that shit and fuck new cars too them things just look hard to fix. I want to grab a nice older sports car and fix her up real nice.

I understand the damage part of the argument and agree that bigger dogs do bigger damage; however, to say that ALL pit bulls, ALL Dobermans, ALL Boxers, etc are aggressive and dangerous because a very small percentage bit someone is ridiculous. Are ALL sportscars involved in an accident? No, that is why they quote you based on YOUR driving record/age/etc.

Let's keep all things equal, please.


Furthermore, you can still get insurance for a sportscar, it may cost a little more, but it's available through every insurer. It is nearly impossible to find a place who will rent to anyone with "an aggressive dog breed (Dobermans, Boxers, Pits, Rottweilers, German Shepherds)". ZERO. Most companies will not write you a home owner's policy if you have one. It;s simply not fair to lump them all together.
Yeah and the dumbest part is their are meaner dog breeds just they are not as popular so they have less attacks probably more attacks per however many in the country though.

I think this place has been over run by shitbirds and the mods/admin don;t give a fuck if they run off all the talent as long as the posts keep coming. Sad.

IS IT JUST ME?!?!?!?!?



So many of you have been like a family to me. I love you sincerely. Hopefully we will meet again.

I think the last name is just a happy coincidence. The movie is a 90's classic, though.

Rubbing's racing:
