To be rice, or not to be rice, THAT is the Question...
Okay, I hate to be the "playa-hata" on the board, but lately, I have seen some of the pics of your cars. And guess what. Rice.
[Begin rant...
]
It used to annoy me on the RX-7 board, how you would hear people whining about who is rice and who is not. So let me break it down for you according to the all knowing - me!
If you change the already white face (sweet *** looking) gauges in your PR5 - You are rice. Amber is the most common interior color in japanese cars, and you are just making it look like a riced out AMERICAN white boy honda.
If you put a banner that is a solid color across your windhsield - You are rice. Don't try to say you need it to block out the sun. Buy a pair of glasses. This is just looks gay guys. Get a grip.
If you switch your wipers to one wiper instead of two - You are rice. Contrary to popular opinion, this does not enhance the looks of your car, nor does it allow you to see more clearly. And here in Seattle, you need to see in the rain.
And finally, the first person I see get custom racing stripes on their PR5 - You will be the king and probably also the queen - OF RICE! I swear to any of you that if this happens, you will never - and I mean NEVER hear the end of it. The car may be a "sport" wagon, or a hatchback, but either way it is not worthy of stripes. Get a viper if you need stripes.
Now before any of you get your panties and boxers in a bunch, I want you to think for a moment about how serious I am here...Don't take it personal. I am just some chick on an internet message board, so don't freak out and get all mad about what I think...
[End rant... ]
Oh, and Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow everyone!

Okay, I can see that no one here gets my joke. Alright, my apologies. I guess some people have a different sense of humor than others, and then there are those who don't even know what humor is.
Lock the thread, ban me, do whatever it takes. In the future, I will leave my jokes/opinions/thoughts out of my posts...
Hey wait - isn't that what posting is? Jokes, opinions, and thoughts? Oh, my bad.
How did I start a flame war? I wasn't flaming! Is Jeff Foxworthy flaming on rednecks when he tells jokes? No! All the country folk gather round and laugh right along with him. And they pay to hear him! Now, I know my jokes aren't funny enough to pay to hear, but apparently no one here is willing to laugh at themselves for a moment.
Sheesh people! I am really sorry if you guys think I was trying to put others down, or be rude. I wasn't. But if you were offended by my post, too bad - IT WAS A JOKE!

Cant we all just get along ? NOPE !! Not when it comes to people stating their honest opinions.
Ricers I can live without, They street race, they drive my insurance rates up, The take cars with 0 personality ie Hondas/Hon-Duhhhs and make them ugly and slow them down even more. basically guys who want atttention. Well they get my attention, I'm busy laughing at them!!
Will I rice up my P5? Nope, Should you rice up yours ? If you want to.
Ricer or not, Enjoy your car!! And if you are so shallow that you care what everyone else thinks, Drive a SUV like everyone else and you'll never get noticed.
It's all fun and games, Flamewar or Not.
NOW STFU !! HA HA

Rice is in the eye of the beholder.
Really what are common things that define a car as riced out?
Big Wheels?
Body Kit?
Spoilers?
Performance exhaust?
Fancy interior (Cool steering wheel, white gauges)
When I look at the MP3/P5 one could ALMOST say that it is factory rice...
Just my opinion. Although I am sure I'll be told how wrong I am

I like yo-yo's.
This is much more entertaining than my job is what I meant, silly!
Actually let me define rice for you.
It is white, I like to eat it, and my asian boyfriend makes it in a strange cooker in my kitchen.
