I still have not felt 100% yet (and there are times I thought I was getting better- only to have to run to the bathroom )
Something that really gets under my skin- is something that has been happenning when I go to the store. I'd hear this LOUD revving of an engine and see that it is someone with a "fancy" car trying to alert everyone around them that they are there.
Folks, while it is nice that a person can have a "fancy" car, to me it is only their way of showing an inadequacy that they are trying to compensate for- and looking for support from others when they see that "fancy" car.
If you need to force people to look at your vehicle by making it LOUD, you just do not have "it".
There have been MANY times that I hear a "fancy" car and I will say in the most monotone voice I can use: "Oh, wow. I am soo impressed. Evidently the car has balls but the driver doesn't".
Maybe I jsut get peeved because the person is using the "fancy" car as some sort of shell for a personality. Maybe I just get peeved because someone is trying to impress people with their "status" of being able to afford something that could be their way of showing their balls. I do know one thing though: no matter what vehicle a person has, it will never impress me: I get impresed by a person's inner self. You can't buy that-- and real people don't need to try and bring attention to it.
Maybe I am a bit old-fashioned to think that if a person has a car that runs and gets them from point A to point B they should be happy with that--- instead of trying to do the whole "look what I got" thing. Who knows: maybe one day the engine will blow and all that money spent on making the outside of the car will not compare to the amount of money needed to fix the inside (if the inside can be fixed)
