Yep, that's the first stage-that's a hurt butt's primary cry for help!

Oh, then in that case I was trying to play that 1 sympathetic friend that tries to stick up for you at first but then is never heard of again.

Rant off...................

(Bill, you can wave at me)
Jon, Jon, Jon, they're not waving at you because of your Vette. I have it narrowed down to the following
1) Some were trying to warn you that your floor mats may not be installed correctly.
2) The others (the brain-dead ones)were trying to tell you that they loved the mod you did with your floor mats.
3) And lastly, the most plausible one. They have never seen a Taurus with hide-away headlights.

I'd never wave at a Taurus. The soft driving would leave them too weak to raise their hand, and their reaction time would be so dulled they'd be in the next county before they go "Waaaaahhh?"

I think the highly jaded and the "my poop don't stink" guys are the non-waivers. It's beneath them. I don't care, I wave anyhow. Of course, that does not pertain to anybody here.

Hey, if you had owned an uber rare black 40th anniversary Vette, damn right it's beneath him

I am generally driving top off, loud music and having a blast. I've seen people drive like you describe and guess what, I don't wave to them.

Bottom line, I'm not interested in you more because you drive a Vette. You are not more special because you drive a Vette and you are certainly not better than anyone because you drive a Vette. You ever notice how toddlers wave at everyone they meet, see the comparison.

Not interested in you or your opinion so keep your insults to yourself. Do I need to make it anymore clear to you?

It was a joke. Sorry you missed it.

Well let me see here, since we can not see the poster's facial expression, can not hear the poster's verbal inference, it is very hard to tell the actual feelings meant behind the written word on any thread or post. So therefore, not having a "face to face" conversation with an individual, I believe that what is posted is mostly for the entertainment derived or trying to get a rise or the desired response that the OP intended. JMO.

I can't take this place seriously at all, don't expect to take what I post seriously either.

Bro, when it comes to seriousness (is that even a word?) here, well all I can say is read some of our threads, truthfully some of us here should be locked up. Did I say some?
