BoostedXT 0 #1 February 3, 2005 Panties in a bunch during a simple conversation? i was just talking with a gentleman about cars that are currently on the road and he said he wanted the R32. I told him its a nice car over all, but I am not a fan of VW. They wanted to make a car perform, but have the fit and finish of luxury. I started talking about rthe STi and EVO and how the interiors stink for luxury wise.....but performance they are better than the R32. He got in a huge tiff and told me my opinion sucks, and it doesnt matter.......*shrugs*...and stormed off. So.....why do people get stupid?

flyangel2 2 #4 February 3, 2005 When I'm stating my opinion on something I make sure I start sentences with "I". If someone then gets all bent out of shape I remind them that it is my opinion. If they continue to want an argument, I'll tell them, that I refuse to go around and around in an conversation that will cause me stress.

windcatcher 0 #5 February 3, 2005 ! I don't understand how people can get angry at something so simple. I am such an easygoing person I think, I don't know why people get stressed out over the LITTLEst things; like finding a parking spot, getting a stain,etc. Who cares man, lighten up Mother to the cutest little thing in the world...

AggieDave 6 #8 February 3, 2005 I found a website of mine from 1998 on there...fun times. Toobad they didn't have my now lost to all of time website from 1995...that would have been a good laugh.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

bobsled92 0 #10 February 3, 2005 He's probably been obessing over "HIS DREAM CAR" and is still trying to justify he own likes. He may question his own taste and be looking for others to agree with him, just to feel better.

BoostedXT 0 #12 February 3, 2005 I am a Subaru guy......I have Rally raced my RS heavily, original member and help found NESIC....new england subaru impreza club, have been flown to AZ by Subaru. They made the Sti to be purpose built, as with the EVO.....the R32 is a performance car built with luxury in mind, but the EVO and Sti were built with performance in mind.....
