Lets get away from talking about the tiny size of Adams item for just a while :roll:

Found an excellent site last night with a crapload of automotive wallpapers. Good stuff. I saved 5 or 6 Saab ones alone.

Seriously, WTH? I had a Mustang GT following me home tonight, egging me into a street race. And the one time I get in front of him (as we make a left turn, because my nonmuscle car can actually handle), he floors it, gets merges right in front of me, and slams on the brakes.

:roll: Yeah, your car is so powerful. Watch me bow to your superiority.

^^^I hate people like that. Tonight, there was some idiot in a Jeep Cherokee....he paces me for about a mile down 114, then cuts in behind me and tailgates me. I'm annoyed, but I'm probably speeding a little already, so I get over to let this guy pass...and he suddenly floors it. When he gets about 100 feet ahead, he turns on his hazards like he just won a race or something.

So I'm really annoyed now, but I'm thinking if it's a race he wants, a race he'll get. I downshift to Third, get up next to him--he's now going 60 in a 40--and sure enough, he floors it again. I passed him like he was standing still. After that, he stays way back from me--at the next red light, we were the only two cars on the road, and he wouldn't even get up next to me.

That's the one bad thing about having a loud fast car...makes people drive like they have something to prove.
I drive a Phantom Black 2005 GTO M6. I commute in a 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited.

fvck no, thats what the new people are for. back when i was new, we didnt have the costume or the sign.

and you know the funny thing about holding the pizza sign. its supposed to attract attention and generate sales, and it doesnt help sales for sh1t, and we get all kinds of complain calls about the people holding the sign. i think its fvckin hilarious.

Went to the wax museum yesterday (madam tussauds), it was awesome!
Also saw most of the animatrix, that was awesome too!

Oh, and I saw Rupee (if any of you know who he is :P) perform live at the club near my house and got to talk to him and get an autograph for my girlfriend, that was SUPER awesome! I love it when entertainers actually care about their fans. Most of the time they come out for 10-20 minutes to perform at the clubs (one time they came out for a total of 4 minutes!) but he was up there for an hour, and he stayed for 2 hours afterwards talking to fans and signing autographs. Respect to him :P
