Ahhhhhh, i'm actually glad to see i'm not the only one that is constantly in the fireing range from these drop-kick Yobbos hurling abuse at anything that isn't made by either Ford or Holden. I beleive however, that i have copped it worse than the majority of you guys, mainly due to the fact that not only do i drive "jap crap" cars, i'm also a self confessed rotorhead. Beleive me, trying to own a rotary in a country where 80% of "car enthusiasts" are, well, V8 driving yobbos with 2brain cells, is not an easy feat. It is a LOT worse than you guys could imagine. I'm not over-exaggerating here, but i would say that 85-90% of my total trips in my previouse rotaries, i would hear someone yell some sort of abuse at me while i drove past them.
Funny thing that too, you drive past them while they are standing on the footpath, and they are all cocky and big, yelling crap out at you, however i have always noticed that when you are just leaning on your car with some mates, 90% of the yobbos just walk past and look the other way, EVEN THOUGH, 5 mins ago on the way into the carpark they could barely spare time to breath in between the abuse they were hurling. Or it's the other way around, if you're sitting on the car they will drive past and stop at the crossing/lights, just looking at you from 2 metres away, not saying a word, then as soon as the lights turn green, BANG out comes the abuse as the driver puts his foot down to speed off to safety. Just shows what type of cowards they really are. Seldom have i ever had someone come up to me and say it to my face.
I used to get really wound-up, i couldn't stand taking crap from people. For years my mates and myself were standing-up and fighting back, coming up with comebacks, until after a while we just realised, there is simply no point. We first realised this when one of my mates decided he needed a comeback for the consistant abuse his RX3 was getting. We tried to workout what it was that these yobbos were saying, but soon realised that the majority of the stuff they said or did was soo pathetic, it made us realise that in order to come-up with a comeback that they would understand, we would also need 2 brain cells to think of one.
At first we used to just try and get technical with them, but found the majority of them were so dumb they had no idea what we were talking about and would simply reply "SO, SO, SO" It was like fighting with a brick wall. Even if we had an extremely convincing argument, they would still disagree, even though we had givin them the plain facts in black and white, they would still go "NUP".
"I'd like to see a 1.3 litre V8 even close to putting out 900hp mate." "Easy, my mum could make one" The conversations were SOO frustrating that i couldn't bare it anymore. After a while I realised that it just wasn't worth bothering with anymore. They were so intellectually-challenged that no matter what was said, they either wouldn't understand, or would chose not to. Then i realised "why am i even bothering trying to convince them, there is no way in the world i would even want somebady like this liking Rotaries in the first place, they belong driveing booner cars" after all, that's what they are, booners.
Looking back now, i can't beleive i even thought for a second that i could make them change their minds. When one guy thought, sorry, KNEW, that his stock-as-a-rock, baby-shit-brown, XDFalcon was "1000% better" than my mates 99model Supra with 19's and a 500hp motor to boot, i should have realised then that he was too far gone to bother worrying about. Also he would laugh uncontrollably when i told him my dad's '98 model V6 camry with just an exhaust and airfilter ran flat 15second 1/4miles with wheelspin. He said his XA (he had 9 booner fords lying around his mums front lawn) running on 5 cylinders would beat my dad's camry hands-down, and he was 100% serious too.
Anyway, you can see what i mean, the majority of them are such one-eyed loosers that it's not even bothering arguing with them. I actually find it quite amusing now to just play along with their games. There are several ways to annoy them, one of them already mentioned here, spit out your comeback and drive-off b4 they can give their brain-dead one back to you. Another one i particularily like to try on them is the agreeing one. Whatever they say about your car you just agree with them, simple as that. "uggghggh (booner laugh) look at your wheels, they are worth more than your car aren't they" "Yeah man, i bought the car for $50 off my mum, so the 3grand i had saved for a car i just spent it all on the wheels" it's really funny, most of the time they think you're seriouse too. "eheghegh you bought your car off your mum, ahahaaghggugugug (booner laugh again)" The best bit is when they are really trying their best to annoy you and you appear totally un-flustered, agreeing with everything they say is the perfect way to get on their nerves. It's like those bullying talks you used to get from your primary school teacher "They are just out to get an reaction from you, if they don't get one they will tire and move on." Same deal. If you're too self conciouse to step down, then there is also another simple comeback that my friends always use. When the booner makes his move, in my friends case "brap brap brap brap, you goin' to cut some trees down with your rotary mate?" The simple reply is, "What do you drive? Race me then" This always ends in tears for them, but not all of you drive 9second Rego'ed RX3's, so i guess you'll have to stick with "Yeah toyota's aren't built as well as Fords, i'll agree with you there..."
