Re: Prius Bashing Gone Too Far

Destroying someones car is not cool No matter what it is. I dislike Priuses too but rather than Torch them I just either pass them or point and laugh at them as I drive by

Re: Prius Bashing Gone Too Far

I don't care how much you dislike someone or their choice of cars there is absolutely no reason to destroy someone elses property. I can't stand the Prius either but the way I look at it, because of the Prius we are going to get cars that do what the Prius tries to do only much better, like the Volt.

Re: Prius Bashing Gone Too Far

Vanadlism is chicken s#!t. Those few people who go too far are wrong....just as wrong as the asshats who torched/painted Hummers.

Heck, these guys are worse than the catylitic converter theives (not by much though). A least the theives are making money.....but the damage is pointless....unless you have a bodyshop I guess.

Re: Prius Bashing Gone Too Far

I think we were still spelling it right back in the eighties, but the meaning was still the same. You can take the white boy out of the ghetto and all that.

Re: Prius Bashing Gone Too Far

Trashing another person's car is cowardly, period. I'd much rather beat up the driver, and the great thing about Prius drivers is they're mostly sissies. Don't get overconfident though, some of those flower wearing hippie women are tougher than they look. Don't ask.

You are correct as usual, ROCNROL.

Prius drivers (notice the name-similarity to p_i_s, just remove the R and U) usually pee their pantsis and then runs off when approached with a Neanderthal-class club with spikes sticking out of the bidness end.

In fact, I once chased Jane Fondu several city blocks before she lost me in a sprouts-and-decaf cafe.
