Everything is worse, the economy, crime, etc... but nothing happened politically wise, probably because our millitary are a bunch of cowards who only care about the money. Right now our currency devaluated almost a 100% since last november, wich means that something that costed you 10.000 Bolivares(local currency) now costs 20.000 , it sucks
.When you guys are done with saddam, could you send us a few thousand marines to get rid of this bastard and his minions?

Ooooh, just to be the pacifist nerd that I am, suck on this:
If folks vent their anger via the written word and on this Forum, then doesn't this venue provide a mentally healthy means for folks to release stress?
Anger is anger, and by all means, it is much better directed as electronic signals versus personal, physical responses or by repressing feelings!
Thus, this forum not only provides information and dialogue, but also serves as a component to continued mental wellness!!!!
Hmmm, do I smell Not-For-Profit status?

Here are the only few things that really get me angry on this board;
1.Its RIIICCCEEE!!! 95% of you ppl on this board use rice for the stupidest reasons. For example: Djhyper put a nice looking roll cage in his car and everyone cries RICE. It looks good, it's his car, and and y'all said it serves no purpose. Just because you don't have the money to put it in your car doesn't mean its rice. If everyone went on the so called "rice standard" then our cars would be plain. I could go on and on and on and on...
(This pisses me off the most)
2. You mazda ppl are soooo ****** BIAS. Practically, if it's not a Mazda, you guys flame it. Especially if it's a Civic or Neon. To top it off, the best reason that most of y'all can give is that "It's a Honda. It's Dodge, enough said"
3. We have to many 'grammar police' ******! If you can understand it, shut the **** up!
I have no problem helping ppl on the board if I know the answer, but if you don't want to here the whining of other members, just search first and/or read the FAQs. At least lie about it and say you did, so these ****** have nothing to argue about.
As someone pointed out in another thread, this is probably a reason why some of the hottest proteges (the car show types) aren't on the board, because ppl can't wait to say RICE once they see a unique color scheme.

This is too much drama. So, you got flamed. Oh well, did your feelings get hurt?
Be part of the solution, not the problem.

I don't see any of those 'show car' protege owners actually sharing insightful, and useful tidbits that are actually useful to your Protege.
if you guys look beyond TheMan's ******* attitude, you will notice just about all his non-flaming posts are some of the most well thought out, coherent pieces of writing about the Protege that you can't find anywhere else. And they are all REAL, USEFUL information that will make your Protege drive better!
I have no anger, I am a peaceful man
.... unless they put in a rollbar for show, but claims otherwise

None of that was intended for you, if you thought so.

I wouldn't want to be the center of a "rice flame" knowing that I put madd money, time, and effort in my car.
Besides, that was just a thought that someone threw out there and reason can be made through it...
Or maybe they don't know about the site...
...but why wouldn't they know about it? (thinking that they had their pro for a while)
