What engine size?

steverino · 07-23-2006, 05:34 PM

How about car models. Start out Aveo, Cobalt, etc. to Hummer

Malibu's will post more to move up a model, so as not to be associated with an ugly car.

Haha, that made me laugh. Seriously, thanks for that.

Buick61's explanation of Fasho reminded me of a clip they have played a few times on Opie and Anthony called "Boo Got Shot." Basically, a real news crew interviews a resident of a less-than-desirable section of some city about a shooting that happened there, and the woman they interviewed spoke so ridiculously poorly that someone dubbed in a translation of what she was saying in perfect English, similar to the way they do translations of, for example, a French politician speaking as shown on a US news report.

There were some really good translations in that skit, but one of my favorites was translating the line "Boo got shot!" into "Boo has been the unfortunate victim of handgun violence" or something like that.

The original clip is here: http://www.ebaumsworld.com/boogotshot.html

I'll look later for the translation...don't want to do too much browsing around while at work.

Can a mod or admin make a chart with the updated engines?

Strapping.Young.Lad · 08-03-2006, 05:32 PM

Mgescuro HAD the V16 title.

Well we no know it is gone, RIP V16.

You are almost at 10,000 posts... Well by New York in April you should be.

DuSpinnst · 06-11-2007, 09:56 PM

Now that ASIM has passed 10,000 we should lobby for a new title (engine based) for people with over 10,000 posts.

LS9 would be nice, for now. When the Ultra V8 Turbo or Supercharged model comes out it should switch to that!

I know I am being annoying about it....
