stupid people

why is it that people who suck and have no mind of there own always copy the people around them???? yes i did answer my own question....cause they suck. But i dont get it still. should i be angry or feel sorry for him? The story is that for a year now since i got my 2002 civic and began the modding process i have been most proud of my wheels. they arent the most expensive...or of a great name, but they are rare in that up until an hour ago i had never seen them ever......and neither had anyone else i have ever met. They fit my clean looking car with it's well thought out and original mods perfectly...i get compliments daily on them. for info they are 17's and are of the 15 spoke design. (17 is the highest they are made in) they look amazing anyways and today i see some beater 88 or so accord with a 4" tip and my rims (granted in 15" and with horridly fat crappy tires). why would he do this....this sucks....if it were a nice car that they were on the problem wouldnt be as big......BUT A BEATER!!!????

and they guy lives like a few streets down......I KNOW HE SAW THEM AND THOUGHT HE'D BE COOL TOO AND TURN HIS PEICE OF **** INTO A CROWD PLEASER WITH A CRAPPED-DOWN VERSION OF THEM......


forgive me...i am just pissed..... i enjoyed being able to say that i had the only set of my wheels in my city if not for miles nad miles........

Ya, for real...good thing you didn't see his shortly after you saw yours were missing...
But none-the-less, that happened to me alot when I first got my vic but now I just consider it a compliment.

i'm overreacting i know...but there's pride in our cars you know.... for me it's an expression and when you see someone else copying you're natural reaction is that they're on your dikc. i do things to my car to be original, and since it's hard to be original with all the vics out there i at least try to put a ton of thought into each mod...then someone puts no thought but a little cash into it and cops your shine.....i'll live....and ya you're right...people see our two cars they'll be like "damn that guy's trying to be cool"....and the bitzniches can tell the hero from the zero...i dunno...it's all good.

but this is where jelousy comes in...if anyone starts fukcing with my car i'll know who it is eh?

kinda hard to express yourself in this type of car man when almost everyone owns a civic...but hey remember when someone replicates what you do...its a form of flattery...

Hey no offence, but I don't think you should get too worked over because somebody has the same rims as you.

I mean, what are rims anyway? Peolpe have it all wrong. Rims are supposed to compliment the CAR, not the other way around. Rims should blend in with the car and not stick out like a zit. It should only be as wild as the body's style, and if you can, it should be restrained.

Even still, you should be only concerned if somebody with the same car as you has the same rims... that piece of sheit with 15in rims? Naww... don't even worry about him!

Word, imitation being the sincerest form of flattery, just smile and know for YOURSELF that you are the original. Don't base your self-image or self-esteem on what others think, it's YOUR opinion that matters. That said, no one is copying my car...I must suck...
