Exactly. I'm 22, and went out with my share of girls through the
years. The past few years I kinda turned into a 'player' but not
really by choice. I didn't really come across anyone who seemed like
a potential g-friend. I went clubbing every weekend for about a year
and had a lot of fun times. But, its not a great lifestyle. Its too
fast paced, way too damn expensive, and when its all said and done,
very unfulfilling. I did all the dumb shit that guys like to do, the
club scene, the beach scene, meeting lots of girls etc. But I got
pretty tired of it. I had only been in one serious relationship prior
to this, and I realized I was more happy living that lifestyle. I
just got tired of the scene and around that time I met someone at
school. She is a bit older then me, 25, I'm 22. But thats definately
to my advantage. She isn't into all the teeni-bopper crap. Driving
past the local highschool and having 18 year-old girls waving saying,
"hey, nice car," just doesn't excite me anymore. I don't give two
shits about stuff like that anymore. My g-friend does like my car,
but I know its definately not the reason why she is with me. If she
was 18, a nice car could be all she was after. Well, I have babbled
long enough. I guess my point is just that as girls get a bit older,
they definately grow up alot.

Well, it's the normal type of riceboy you see on the street. Let me
explain. I live in NJ and I do go to college as well. Everywhere I turn,
I see one of those Rice Rockets. I always have to laugh at them because
it's the same old story. Lowered to the ground, tinted windows, 4"
coffee can exhaust tips, bass pumping systems, racing stickers. Ugh, how
pathetic. Not once have I seen any of these cars beat a REAL sports car,
they all sound loud. I do see a few people do that to their 5.0's as
well. However, that's not the point of this story. Around here, myself
and my friend call most riceboy's, hope-tees. Why? Let me explain. They
dress the same, they act the same and they talk the same. Everytime we
see someone driving a rice-rocket, when they get out of the car, it's
usually someone from the ages of 17-23. They usually have a shaved head,
wear pants that are hanging halway down their asses and baggy clothes
like Tommy Hillfinger type of clothes. They try to act tough and
intimidating all the time, it's really funny. If they don't have a
shaved head, they are usually wearing a hat resembling some sort of
latest trend. They are the ones that the neighborhood turns to and looks
at whenever there is some sort of trouble caused around here. They have
reputations of being drug users, etc. Basically, I hope I don't offend
anyone, but they are white people trying to be black. They listen to the
same old crappy rap. The worst part about it is that they are the ones
that always get the good looking girls. I don't understand what some of
the girls see in them and yet, when I approach a girl, they always tell
me I'm too nice of a guy. Since when is being too nice a bad thing?
Here are the 3 stories of my encounters with hope-tees:
One day, I came home with my friend and discovered I locked myself out
of the house because I forgot my key. So, we were deciding what to do
and figuring out a way to get back into my house. I then remembered my
neighbor had the key to my house. So, I walked to my neighbors house and
nobody was home. I started to walk back to my house, I live on a dead
end street, when all of the sudden your typical rice rocket 88 Honda
Prelude comes flying down my street. He then all of the sudden slows
down, goes around the turn and sees me and my friend walking so he
decides to turn up his bass pumping system. The funniest thing I heard
was this system, it had plenty of bass, but had a lot of static! My
friend has a bass tube in his Camaro and it sounds nice, this guy's
system was a joke. It was even funnier that he decided to turn up his
system in front of us with his girlfriend in the car to try and look
cool. So, I just burst into laughter because it's so funny, when all of
the sudden, he stops and puts it into reverse. He gets out of the car
and asks me what my problem is. I ignore him! He demands an answer from
him, both of us walk and pretend not to hear him and keep talking. He
then says "What did you say mother fucker?" I just look at him and laugh
as he says: "I'll knock you down and piss on you!" The funny thing was,
he was smaller that I was. I'm around 5'10", around 155lb and have a
pretty good muscular build for my size. He was around 5'8" and was
really skinny but looked big because of his clothes. He then got back in
his little rice rocket Prelude as me and my friend got in my friend's 93
Camaro RS. He had no idea it was his car and he had no idea that my
friend had a new exhaust on there to added around 15 horsepower, a chip
and a K&N Air Filter. So, we then start off slowly and he gets out of
his car again. My friend accelerates a little more and the hope-tee gets
back in his car trying to catch up to us. All of the sudden, my friend
floors it and all we see in the little rice rocket left in the dust.
A few months later, I see the same hope-tee but with a different car. He
comes up to me and asks me what my friend has in his Camaro cause he
said it was a fast car. I told him, and that's when he said he now has a
faster car then my friend's Camaro and is a little bit faster then a
Corvette. The hope-tee gets into his Eagle Talon and drives away. A
little later in the day, on a backroad, I run into the Eagle Talon as I
am driving my stock 96 Pontiac Grand Am with about 155 horsepower. The
guy is in front of me and all of the sudden sticks out his middle finger
out of the window. He then speeds off so I decide to floor it and stay
with him. I could tell he was pushing it by the way he was acting in the
car, rocking back and forward to try and make his car go faster (Which
accomplishes nothing anyway) That's when I saw the dotted yellow lines
and decided to pass him, which I did, and then I took off and turned.
Haven't seen the guy since.
The last story is another story with my friend's Camaro. We were driving
home from the local Quick Check on the main road going home to my house,
when all of the sudden, this Acura all riced out pulls up behind us. We
figure, let's do the speed limit like any normal person would do. All of
the sudden, the hope-tee decides that he wants to pass on the double
yellow line, and gets up next to us and of all things, turns the bass up
on his system. Oh no, he just added insult to injury... for himself! So,
he gets a little ahead of us, maybe doing around 50 or so on a 35mph
road, then my friend looks at me and says "No way is he gonna pass me!"
My friend then floors it and instead of flooring it so he gets in front
of him, he gets side by side with him. The most funniest thing,
considering we were doing around 60 at that point. Then, we see another
car coming the other way. My friend actually slows down to let this guy
pass us cause he can't do something to hurt someone else on the road
when they have nothing to do with it. The Acura passes us and decides to
try and speed off. We stay right on his tail and went up as far as
95mph, when all of the sudden, we saw the big hump in the road. We slow
down because we don't want to make too big of a jump and all of the
sudden, we see the Acura in front of us hit the bump, fly in the air and
then bottom out! We then catch up again to play with the guy some more
and he begins to slow down but we don't know why, then he takes off
again! Huh? So we follow him, passing the road for my house. The
hope-tee gets pissed and gives us the middle finger through his
moon-roof. We followed him some more, and then eventually found a road
big enough that we were able to pass him on and just laugh at his face.
Later on, I discovered the reason why he slowed down... we made him miss
his house which was right on the main road we were racing on! I think we
scared him or something, I don't know.
The funny thing about all these rice-boys is that they are all the same.
And what makes it worse is that most of the time, they only race their
Hondas or whatever to about 60MPH. Well, those are my stories, hope you
enjoyed them. Next time you see a younger riceboy, take a closer look
and you will see exactly why I call them hope-tees!

in between classes I go to the mall to eat lunch with my friends. Those
riceboys are everywhere, and the girls they are with always look good, but
sometimes skanky. When those punks grow up, I will be out of college and
they won't be making any money. Since women seem to like men with money and
the stability of a college degree, look who will have the women. Just my
two cents...

They were probably just being nice ( I think you deserved that one).

BWAAHAAAAAAHAAAAAHAAAAAAA!
Oh how I wish that were true (sorry, I've got to vent here).
Women don't care if a man has a good job, or if a man treats them well,
or if a man is honest, etc. Women mostly seem to care about status and
appearance. They want a man who they can fix, and make better.
If women wanted a man who is intellegent, or who is honest, or who is
sincere, or who earns a lot of money... I'd have been married years ago.
The fact is, most women can't deal with reality. If someone is honest or
straightforward, it freaks them out and they don't know how to react. Or
at least, that's my opinion.
Now, I'm sure that I'm about to get flamed by every woman on this news
group. Well, I'm sure you will all have fantastic points to make, but
every woman I've ever known has (probably) made similar points, and then
practiced the exact opposite of what they were preaching.
Unfortunately, the punks from college are still getting all the women,
even though they earn (maybe) 1/2 or 1/3 what I do. Sorry John, but
that's just the way it is. If you find a decent woman who can handle
reality, and isn't scared off by responsibility, then you found a good
one. Email me the name and number of her sister.

and still see too many of these "hope-tees." I'm still a teenager myself, but
can't stand all these fake guys trying to impress everybody the wrong ways.
I've got some funny stories myself about these riceboys. My dad has a 97
Explorer XLT, your typical SUV that has the off-road ability but not much
speed, which I drive whenever I have the chance. Well, I often end up at a
red-light next to one of these guys with their ghetto cruisers and egg them on
by reving my monster SUV engine, quite loud. Next thing that happens, light
turns green and most the time I actually wreck these poor souls. I just don't
get them, so I get a kick out of beating one of them in a clunky SUV.

True. Can't account for taste, though. Seems like the in thing, in a
year or so everybody will just laugh at it. Remember bell-bottom
jeans?

Simple. The girls are merely good looking, nothing else. Might have
something to do with those nicely sexy clothes they all wear (now
there's a style I don't mind at all ;)
However, perhaps it's just me, but to be interesting, a girl must be
both pretty *and* bright. Non-bright people are boring.
Seeing that they hang out with such loosers, I can only assume they're
just not very bright.
> the girls see in them and yet, when I approach a girl, they always tell

Pfff, that's an age-old line to tell you to get lost. Has nothing to
do with being nice. Trust me :)

Even funnier that they all think of themselves as independent and
unique rebels: "Und ab heute gehoere ich nicht mehr zur Norm, denn
ich trage ja die non-konformisten Uniform!" (Loosely translated: "From
today on I don't belong to the norm anymore, because I wear the

The baggy clothes initially started back in 1984 or so. Michael
Jordan began wearing slightly larger then usual shorts early in his
career with the Bulls. Almost everyone at that time refused to follow
his lead. In Jordan's college days, he requested looser shorts while
at the University of North Carolina. His coach, Dean Smith, wouldn't
allow this as it was considered to be in poor taste at the time. Dean
later came under some criticism for allowing the likes of Jerry
Stackhouse and Rasheed Wallace to wear very baggy clothes. Times have
changed. Eventually the NBA even made a rule designed to limit the
length of shorts worn by NBA players. Supposedly this rule was
targeted towards Philadelphia's Allen Iverson in particular. Anyways,
the baggy clothes were pioneered by Jordan. He does not dress in
excessively baggy jeans or shirts though, as many 'gansters' on both
coasts do....

I am going to have to agree with Brother Rude here. This has also been my
experience. Everyone likes to THINK that women want "the nice guy" but what
they want is a challenge. As Jared said, someone they can fix. Ladies, you
can't change a man.....period. You MAY be able to alter his way of thinking
for a brief period, but that's about it, next thing you know the toilet seat is
back in the upright and locked position.
Let me interject that I am an old-fashioned guy, with old-fashioned values.
You open the door for the lady, if you're interested, you ask for the digits,
then call them the next day (or sooner), and when you show up for the date, you
bring flowers. That's the way I was raised, and women are FREAKED by this.
Then they tell me, oh, you'll meet someone eventually, you're just TOO NICE.
groan. So until then, I still get treated like a stalker. Like Jared said, if
women wanted guys like us, we'd be married by now.
I also agree that many women fail to have a realistic view of relationships
(and guys for that matter). They EXPECT the "bad boy", they EXPECT to get
played with, it's like 1st grade recess....if a guy pulls on a girl's pigtails
in front of his friends....it must be love.
It's starting to sound like my senior thesis all over again.....AHHHHHHHHH!
STOP THE INSANITY!!!!!!!!
This is all for now, let the flames begin.....but before they do, keep in mind
I speak from experience, AND a degree in interpersonal and social
communications (wow, just MENTIONING it makes those 4 years of school worth
every penny.) (warm fuzzy feeling inside) =)

Those bozos deserve each other. There's a shitload of idiots out there,
both male and female. Just look at some of the trolls that have
stumbled in here. Don't lower your standards just because everyone else
apparently is, and don't think that good women aren't out there either
just because you haven't come across any recently. Hope this helps.

God, I love these conversations!
I do see this often, however it's not a rule of thumb. Same thing goes for guys
that are "players" that just want to get laid etc.

I think its more like they want to live out a fantasy. To be romantised, like
some cheesy novel, with a "bad boy" etc. This was very common in High School,
and well, some people never get passed that point. I'd just consider them to
immature and superficial, and say that your better off.
In highschool, I probably resented this, and would always date the outcast
girls(and no, they weren't ugly).
My current girlfriend is quite a weird one. She has always had male friends,
and can't stand other females and their games.
When she asks me if she looks fat, I tell her the truth (maybe 3-4lbs). And I
think she _now_ realises that honesty and communication are better. She's still
dating me for the past 2 years and has _daily_ propsals from other guys, so
maybe I have a keeper.

Something I would like to add, from a forward I got recently:
*Rules That Guys Wished Girls Knew*
1) If you think you're fat, you probably are. Don't ask us.
2) Learn to work the toilet seat: if it's up, put it down.
3) Don't cut your hair. Ever.
4) Birthdays, Valentines, and Anniversaries are not quests to see if he
can find the perfect present!
5) If you ask a question you don't want an answer to, expect an answer
you don't want to hear.
6) Sometimes, he's not thinking about you. Live with it.
7) . Don't ask him what he's thinking about unless you are prepared to
discuss such topics as navel lint, the shotgun formation, and monster
trucks.
8) Get rid of your cat. And no, it's not different, it's just like every
other cat.
9) Dogs are better than ANY cats. Period.
10) Sunday = Sports. It's like the full moon or the changing of the
tides. Let it be.
11) Shopping is not sport.
12) . Anything you wear is fine. Really.
13) You have enough clothes.
14) You have too many shoes.

What does "being black" mean in this day of cross-culture anyway? Would you
also say a black man who likes Metallica is trying to "be white?" What if he
wears a cowboy hat sometimes?
I will certainly agree that most newer rap is crappy rap though. I think MC
Hammer's second album pretty much marks the date when most rap started going
downhill. Hmmm, or maybe there's just a broader choice of styles available
now. But who can forget the oldies? "Well, I'm Keith Cowboy, and you're my
cow, so what you MCs gonna do now? I'm going to tie you up, and here's my plan,
you won't even get bread and water, my man." hahaha :)

"Nice" in this context is often mis-defined. You can be confident yet nice.
Authoritative yet nice. Sexual yet nice. Nice can get you friends but rarely
romance. Why? Because, say it with me now... nice is BORING. A "nice guy"
doesn't dare use sexually suggestive references or flirt -- heaven forbid a man
shows interest in a woman's sexuality. A "nice guy" is often a guy who does a
woman favors and helps her out with the hope that she will reciprocate with
sex. A guy who gets a woman to think he only wants to be friends and is
surprised when she gets pissed at him later for making a move on her. That's
not nice. That's being a con-artist and a jerk. He lied about his true
intentions, no wonder she's pissed. A "nice guy" also puts off his own plans so
he can be at a woman's beck and call. Women do not respect doormats. They only
walk on them. And a guy who puts a woman on a pedestal shouldn't be surprised
if she falls off.
Romance 101 class is dismissed for the day. :Ž

Ok, here you go. Never consider a girl or woman to look skanky. Just
because some of them dress like that, doesn't mean they are. I do agree,
some of the girls with these shaven head bozos are pretty dumb and tend
to realize this later in life about the mistake they made. If I was back
in the 40's right now, I would probably be settled down.

Normally, around the age of 24, the girls start to grow up and begin to
act like real women. Why? Because they are out of school and they needed
to find themselves a real job. And if they want a real job, they want a
real man too! Not some punk kid with nose rings and what have you. Being
with a guy because he has money is not the thing here. They finally
realize that they have a chance to be with a mature guy, when in
reality, back when they were 18 or so, they still had a chance to go out
with the mature guy, but they just never looked at the right people.
I'll be adding more to everything else in this thread.

Hmm.. another interesting point. How true this is, I've known from
experience. Let me explain. I started to date this girl who I was really
into a few years ago. I would do absolutely anything for her and I was
the complete gentleman all the time. Every time, she would say stuff
like "I don't want to lose you!" Huh? Um, ok. Anyway, I was about the
nicest I could be with her, and according to everyone else, they thought
she deserved me because I would treat her the way a girl should be
treated, with the utmost respect. This freaked her out and she didn't
know how to react, so she broke it off and told me she wasn't ready for
a serious relationship. Two days later, she gets back together with her
ex who used to physically beat her. 6 Months later, she is engaged to be
married. Talk about fucked up!

Same here! The punks from my college all earn 1/2 as much as I do, get
their money from their parents, act all tough, etc. But yet, the women
find them more appealing then a clean cut "nice" cuy. Go figure!

Well, they want a challenge up to a certain age, usually around 24 or
25. They, these jerks turn into even bigger asses, these women don't
like them and they wonder why they can't find the nice guys. I'll tell
you why, because you ignored us when we were interested, so we decided
to find the "nice" girl!

Actually, this is something I have been conscious about. I have a few

toilet, I always feel necessary to be polite and put the seat back down
for them since I know that they live there.

That's the thing! Some of the women we look at are good looking and some
are just ok. I guess the same applies for guys when women look at them!
Us guys all want the really good looking women all the time, so I guess
the really good looking women want the really good looking guys who are
jerks? I'm a pretty good looking guy and I am a very nice person, but
yet, they women tend to go with the shaved head jerk-offs (I don't imply
this to all with shaved heads by the way, just the hope-tees!)

I hate the games some female friends play! But then again, I don't like
women with many male friends because they tend to put thoughts into the
girls head, especially when they begin to like them. For example, the
girl I spoke about in a message before, she had this friend that she
said was like a "big brother" to her. Ok, fine, I had no problem with
it... until I found out that they were doing stuff behind my back (and
even in my face for that matter!)

Well, not the typical youth, but at least the majority of it. I admit, I
am part of the youth of america, but I'm a little bit different. I am
21, I make myself a good amount of $$ I can be comfortable with, go to
school, have a great family life (Ok, this has nothing to do with it1),
etc. However, I don't go around dressing like some of these jerks and
acting like them too. The way I dress for work, which is a casual
office, is the way I dress outside of work too! And no, I don't wish to
be black :P

Oh, I've figured that one out a while. I once asked out a friend of
mine, she was attractive and had a great personality. She said I was too
nice of a guy (and still says this) and says she wasn't into dating for
a while. 2 weeks later, she's dating some guy! I actually caught her off
guard and asked her why she said this and what did she mean by I was too
nice. She started to explain herself and just left it at "you're too
nice" and then I said "Why didn't you just say you weren't interested?
It would have made it a heck of a lot easier for me to cope with!"
Women, go figure!

Yes they do! They grow up a lot! There are some out there and grow up

of these girls. He's 21, she's 20. They both work full time jobs and she
is completely devoted to him and vice versa. He's not even a good

likes him? Because he is a nice guy!

white suburban kids trying to enact the "bad" lifestyle. Notice that everything
"cool" (gangsta rap, supremely baggy pants - less-baggy pants started with the
skateboarders, etc.) started out on the "street." I believe some magazine did a
story on this trend recently - Spin or something. All I remember is the title -
"What it means when the white boy says 'yo'."

<< What made you chose yellow? I chose black to help hide those damn fake

Well, I have always had black cars, and they looked BOO-TEE-FULL, but they were
SO hard to keep looking clean (swirl marks and all.) That, and the first
Mustang I saw was in R&T's GT issue....with the Yellow stang. I fell in love.
Plus I feel Yellow fits my personality. Yellow doesn't look good on ALL cars,
but on the Mustang, I thought it had that certain pizzazz (sp). Thank god I
got all that bat-outta-hell driving style out of my system when I was
younger....I'll have a hard enough time keeping police at bay with the color.

Right... but I don't laugh at his stereo. It had nice bass and all, I
just laughed at him trying to act "cool" in front of us. Hell, I live on
a DEAD END street. I was at the end of the street right in front of my
house, he turns around with nobody else in sight to try and impress
besides me, my friend, himself and his girlfriend and then turns up his
little bass pumping stereo. What was I supposed to do, cry that he had a
lot of bass? It's not the point that I laughed to be a trouble maker. I
wasn't looking for trouble at all. I just laughed because I thought it
was funny

First of all, it's back down, not BACKS down. Secondly, my friend is a
3rd degree black belt meaning he can't physically do anything to anyone
first unless he gets attacked and uses it in self defense. By law, he is
considered a lethal weapon. Neither of us backed down, but neither of us
budged to try and defend ourselves. When the kid got out of his car, I
laughed. Why? Because I'm a lover, not a fighter... I'm 20 at the time
of this, he was around 17... do I need to spend a night in jail while he
gets his hands slapped by his mommy and daddy? I don't think so.
As for the car bit, the kid *wanted* to race! It's a different story if
you *want* to race someone rather then trying to pass someone on a
double yellow line without them even having knowledge that a race is
wanted (which is exactly what happened to my friend) How do I know he
wanted to race? Well, considering the kid slowed down to about 15mph
under the speed limit, sped up, slowed down again, sped up and then gave
me the finger, I kind of got the hint. Now, unless he was getting
confused with his gas and brake pedals... I don't know what else to tell
you.
> All of you are punks.

Pretend to be little choirboys? Oh, that's a good one. The way I see it,
you're angry. You're angry because you are the person I describe in this
whole thread. To call all of us punks here... I don't know about that. I
think the youngest person on here I have seen is 17, the rest are older
guys just minding their own business and living their own lives. Anyway,
who cares if I fought the guy or not? I'm a lover, not a figther. The
only time I fight is during my hockey games, I don't fight with people
who get pissed off for no apparent reason. Gee.

I have to contribute to this thread, because I can definately relate. I have
always tried to be the "nice guy" with every girl I've gone out with- and I
always got burned. Ditched for a "riskier" guy or an ex. I'm now engaged to a
girl who most of those guys would probably consider boring. She's sweet, very
responsible and down to earth. She's not the finest girl I've ever seen, but
she is aesthetically pleasing and more importantly I know exactly who she is
and neither of us ever has to worry about ulterior motives. She has never
criticized any of my "immature" interests (muscle cars, video games, intense
music interest) at age 22 and loves me for who I am, and I her. There is hope

econobox, lowered, big airplane wing and dual-exhaust pipes sticking
out of the rear bumper which was cut to fit them. Each one had two
exhaust pipes (for a total of four). Tinted windows and stickers
everywhere, and of course the loud, thumping "dope-ass" bass (I
believe that's the rice boy's technical term for "loud"). I thought I
was gonna bazooka puke right through his window.
And what is with those bowl haircuts, baggy assed pants and hats on

I don't, however, think there's anything wrong with a loud, high-fidelity

Why would any other Mustang owner have a heart attack from pulling up
next to another (cool looking) Mustang?
Does your Mustang have 13 inch diameter gold plated wire wheels that
stick out of the fenders four inches?
Does it have a huge obnoxious rice wing?
Does it have cool "VP Racing Fuels" stickers all over it, yet it still
retains the stock engine?
Does it have six inch diameter fart can tailpipes?
Does it have windows that are tinted more than one color?
Does it have huge graphics painted across more than one body panel? Or
across a body panel and part of the windshield or rear window?
Does it have the words "Powered by Honda" in huge letters anyhere on the
car?
Does it have strobe lights inserted into the lights, or under the hood,
or under the body?
Does it have neon anyhwere on, or under, the car?
Does it carry a "NOS" sticker, yet no itrous oxide is present?
Instead of the 5.0 emblems, does it have "Mugen" stickers?
If I saw any of the above, I'd probably have a heart attack. And I'm
only 27.

Oh brother! Let me see, since you are so confident that your 93 LX will
give me a heart attack, why don't you tell me what you dropped in there?
The one thing I have learned in my 5 years of owning a Mustang is that
all mustang drivers usually have respect for one another. I don't see
someone out there saying "My mustang is better then yours!" And if I do,
it usually is some punk kid that says it. To tell you the truth, the one
Mustang I have right now, I did absolutlely nothing to the car except
replace some of the older original parts on there. It's not like I race
the thing, I use it for show! As for my new one, sure, I might do a few
things with it, but that's it. It's a car to get me from point A to
point B. You, have acted like nothing but a jerk to myself and to others
on this newsgroup. Come to think of it, you remind me of someone I went
to highschool with and judging by your e-mail address

And if you did see more black people at Metallica concerts, would you say they
are trying to "be white?" Hopefully not. I understand you probably mean the
"gangsta" attitude/act and the like that some rappers use to push a product, if
so, leave the "being black" description behind.

Is this sarcasm or are you agreeing? Notice the quotes. A "nice guy" will
shower her with gifts not because he's nice or giving but because he's trying to
buy her affection. "Geez, I shoveled her driveway, I washed her car, I bought
her flowers, I took her to a movie, I paid for a big dinner, I even rented a
limo... and I barely got a thank you out of it. What's a guy gotta do?" A
"nice guy" often refrains from showing a woman he's interested in her
romantically or fails to advance the relationship in that direction fast enough
as if it's a taboo subject with her. And they say women give mixed signals!

No, "trying to be black" about sums it up. The rest of your "cool" examples
were all started "on the street", sure, but by blacks. Our hope-tees (if
that's what you want to call them) have adopted this black youth uniform, the
black rap music, and the black body language and slang. If that's not "trying
to be black", then I'm confused.
BTW, George Carlin's recent LIVE FROM NEW YORK on HBO was hysterical, in the
section where he went off on just this kind of nonsense. "You go, girlfriend"
should never be said by a white girl, or even ANY girl, he says. The whole
segment had me holding my stomach, I was laughing so hard. (Actually, he took
shots at everyone, including me, now that I think about it...)
I wonder whether these kids REALLY want to be black. We could move a bunch of
them to...say...Camden or West LA, and see how attractive that lifestyle really
is to them.

They're not trying to be black, they're trying to be rebellious, and the best
way to piss off your middle-aged, white, accountant father is to start becoming
a minority. If being Amish was supremely rebellious, then we'd be seeing a lot
more cart-by shootings.

There's maybe something else on those that I forgot, but
it probably doesn't matter as much. ;) Probably.

I don't? Hmmm... I wonder if that car sitting in my garage is something
else then if it's not a Mustang! Read the threads, I'm gonna be owning
my second Mustang in a few short weeks! I now have a 65 and in about 3
weeks, my 99 Gt should be in and ready to drive away in! That's all I
wanted to clear up.

I'm kind of talking the same way that you are.

Btw, to its logical conclusion, aren't you hiding on the internet by
the defining terms you've set thereof?

No, Woody, I don't know what your ET is. And guess what? I don't care. I
don't care if you ever go to the track, and I don't care if your Mustang has
four or eight cylinders. I just saw someone making an ass of himself, and
thought I'd join in.

Whatever.
Woody
No, you're the guy who made an ass of himself.

No. I'm not insulting people, see.

Hmmm. After reading that sentence a couple of times, I still don't
get it. Is it meant as an insult? Told you they don't help.
Ciao,

PS: If you think of something (un?)cool to say after you've already
posted, it's not considered polite to reply to the same message
again. Makes you look over-hasty and foolish.

Hey, Dan, if you have a beauty like a 65 (Fastback?), how come you
buy a modern monstrosity like the 99? Personal preference?

And you're doing the same thing.

Well, for starters, I can only technically drive my 65 about 3000 miles
a year because of the classic plates I have on there (or was it
historic?) If I wanted to drive it everyday, it would be tough to take
that thing to inspection since NJ really cracked down on the emissions
of some of the older cars. I was considering getting myself a 5.0 at the
time I decided to get the GT, also in my ballpark for getting a car was
the BMW 328i and the Suburu <sp?> Impreza which I would have done the
rally racing modifications too. But, I liked the new body style on the
Mustang and just the look alone. Then I test drove one and made up my
mind and got it.. like you said, just personal preference.

Ah. If you say so.
Look, quoting an entire post and adding a single (uninformative) line
to the bottom is the sure sign of an AOLer of somebody of similar
mentality.
I'm getting tired of you - you bore me, and your insults are weak and
unoriginal.
Welcome to my killfile (for the weak of mind:
this means my system will automatically drop all messages from you).
Bye.
Ciao,

Wow. Here in California, I drive my '68 every day. Couldn't imagine
being limited to x miles per year. Cars over a certain age are
automagically excempt from smog testing :)
