That's right, I'm un-interested in trying to challenge you and your faux supercar in a drag race between stoplights downtown. I don't know why you all feel the need to glare at me while the light is red. You don't have to change your grip on the steering wheel like its a pair of motorcycle handlebars, either. You especially don't need to rev your four-cylinder with its loud exhaust system because you might tempt me to want to race you.
I don't.
What really gets me, though, is with the abundance of similarly craptastic hondas out there, why do you want to race me? The way I figure it, you want to race everything in sight. My Jeep has less than 200 horsepower and the aerodynamics of a barn. However, I suppose the near-verticle air dam which is my windshield isn't neccesarily discouraging to someone who puts a god-damn wing on the back of a front wheel drive car. More downforce for the rear wheels then, eh? That way you can accelerate faster, right? Great work, dipshit.
But seriously. I don't get it. I don't ask you to go drive trails with me. I don't wave and say 'lets go haul ass through a mud pit'. Sure, I spend about as much time off pavement as you do on the track, but at least I can tell the difference between a race car and a 4x4. Does my Jeep look like a challenge or something? Do you and your honda friends get together and say 'Dood! I just beat that Jeep with the big tires and low gears! I'm so fast!'
The way I figure it, your car sucks so much, you can't beat any of the other Hondas, and sure as hell don't want to admit defeat. Instead of buying a genuinely fast car, you choose to get your rocks off racing easy vehicles in your piece of shit. Way to go, badass! I'm proud of you! Why don't we get together and beat up some kids later. I'll let you sucker punch a baby. It will be hard core.
Seriously, though. Please, please, the next time you see me, or any other non-challenging vehicle at a light, don't antagonize them and encourage them to 'race.' Instead, pull your head our of your ass, and realize that your hatchback is probably faster than a minivan, delivery truck, recreational vehicle, bicycle, u-haul, and other similar underpowered non/aerodynamic vehicles. Oh, and don't forget, you're probably faster than me, too.
Go play some more Gran Turismo, and quit being a jackass.
that's probably the funniest thing i have ever read. that is exactly how i used to feel about every dumb ricer that pulls up next to me. now i'm indifferent, and i can halfway understand that he at least likes his car because it is a honda. and if it isnt a honda and it's riced, then that means they just like riced cars. we all know that isn't cool... at least if it's a honda you can claim you just love hondas?
but on another note........ i have a couple of funny assed pictures of some ricers i took at the hospital... oh believe me some sure show up when they know a hospital gives 'free indigent care.' if only this verizon website will pop up? www.vzwpix.com isn't working for me. anybody else?

how is a sticker ricey? personally the aftermarket colored H emblems are much ricier. that actually looks tight
Tell me your joking... That looks so dumb, although the red emblems can look ricey depending on how the car is done up. at least they are the real thing/resemble the real thing. but a sticker? thats a joke. the color is even off. I should have done a good deed and peeled it off myself

Agreed! It's not even Red, it's Orange
Red Type R 'H' Emblems can look good only on a Red Civic serving the purpose of matching, but on any other color it wud still look ridiculous.
