Saw something funny at the parking lot

I was out riding the murdersickle last night, picking up some junk at Target for a weekend trip. As I was walking through the parking lot, I saw something that made me laugh.


A bad-ass-looking tattooed guy was walking to his car with his girlfriend in arm. Said guy places his coffee cup on the roof of a silver Honda Acorn in order to open the doors. Girlfriend circles to her door then throws her arms up in the air.

"This isn't our car!"

Bad-ass grabs his coffee cup and they then move to the silver Kia parked next to the Honda.

...

I suspect avoidance of this situation might be the number one reason we're HAMBers.

 

Last Sunday morn'.
So I'm in the parking lot of the Conoco, girlfriend runs in for a soda. black acura TL pulls up next to me. older lady gets out, goes in, comes out before my girl, and proceeds to get in my black altima, her husband is 2 feet away from her (passenger side of my car) staring like WTF?

I says to the dame, howdy maam. You lost? She looks at me, spiky hair, black t, looks over at her husband, golf polo and a banker's haircut, looks back at me "OH MY GOD!" and runs over to the other car. I'm laughing my ass off and Mr. I vote republican is lookin at me like its my fault. It would have been better if I had been in the 53, but she would have picked up on THAT difference, right?

 

My wife drives the most vanilla Explorer. I think 2 out of 3 of them were painted this gold color. I had someone try to put their key in it once until I walked up behind them and asked what they were doing.

Off topic, but this older man and his wife were walking past my wife and I going into a store when I heard him turn to his wife and say, "You know, these pantyhose are really comfortable when you get used to them."

 

i can understand when it's the same year/model fo car, but it's scary when it's a completely different MAKE! jeezus, these people should have their right to vote taken away if they're so stupid they can't identify their own car. funny, i've never had that problem, even at times i have driven a late model car, there was SOMETHING to make it stand out, lowered, different wheels, etc.

 

LOL -- these stories make me sad that I'm almost considering a PT Cruiser as a replacement for my daily driver. Ugh.

 

That's the best!
Seeing badassed, tattooed, hard-core guys driving econo-boxes!
CHUMPS!

 

Hahahahahaha...isn't "conformity" great? Tatts driving a Honda...now that would make him look really mean and terrible...and I poo-pooh his self-styled tuffness...nothing like a Honda to make any bad-ass look like a full fledged chump!

R-

 

that makes ME sad!

 

[QUOTE="You know, these pantyhose are really comfortable when you get used to them."[/QUOTE]

Well, darnit, they are. Now if I could just get the hang of tying this wave cap thingy....

 

Once saw two badass bikers getting a ticket on the San Diego Freeway. They had been riding (one) Honda 50!

 

THis is embarrasing, but on my '04 Chevy crew cab, I've walked up to the pickup from the left-rear, as I'm walking I'm looking down towards the ground with my mind off in space, and have actually opened the left-rear door and got in the truck. When I'm about half way in I realize the steering wheel is missing. This has happened twice. What a fuckin' space cadet...hahaha...funny shit.

 

for like 6 months i had no car to drive(nasty wreck)....and got so used to people offering to drive me around everywhere...when i got a car fixed,i did the same thing a few times,haha...

dont feel too bad

 

yeah,,, well what about when you see the wanna-be ToughGuys thinkin there a badass driving there primerd 53-Bel Air. they have the slicked back hair and cuffs but cant look you in the eye when you go up to talk to them.
The Moral of the story is :::::: I dont think a real tough-Guy realy cares what he drives cause if you give him shit for it he'll knock your block off.

 

That's funny but...........

Just my little rant- not everybody can drive their classic everyday/everywhere. So please don't judge someone for how they look and then laugh if they get into a Honda. Right now my only running car is ~ *gasp* ~ an Altima. Does that make me non-worthy of the HAMB?

Would you rather my kid and I walked the 25 miles it used to be to get to the store because my Poncho is in the process of being re-born? When my car was up on jack stands having the brakes done, I had to take my "econo-box" to Napa to get the parts, it's not like they deliver to everyone. And I KNOW I'm not the only one. (Plus with gas so high my "econo-box" is about all I can afford to drive.) I'm not too proud to drive whatever it takes to get me from point A to point B until my soon to be "new" daily driver Falcon is on the road.

Just saying......

 

Ahhh. New cars are just new cars. boring and extremely similar.

however when we were driving to the day of the drags last year in the wagon, and a near identical 63 catalina wagon pulled up right next to us,then drove off, instead of feeling all "crap,he's got the same car as me", I was very,very pleased that it was still alive. pretty cool,actually.

 

Really?!? I thought it was for the masochistic pleasures that only an old car can provide.

 

A few years ago I climbed in to my 1960 MGA roadster after leaving an Ace Hardware store and had a guy come running over screaming at me about what was I doing in his car! He felt a bit silly when we both looked around and saw HIS car 3 spaces over. If he wanted my car that bad I would have been happy to go over and take the other one, it had a good front grille unlike the empty space in mine.

 

My Galaxie IS my daily driver, nobody mistakes it for theirs, but they sure do like to call it a Torino though.

 

man what are the odds of that??crazy
one time bout 3 years ago, i had a pair of nasty old work pants on ..when i went to get in the truck they ripped clear out..caught the last 16 inches of my pecker in the door jamb....man you should have seen the people in that car dealership freak out!!!mmmmmmmm.... good times....

 

Amen.

The biggest (6'9) toughest (320lbs) baddest assed (tattooed from neck to toes) marine I ever knew drove a Ford Fiesta as his daily driver. He'd just as soon rip out your tounge and break your neck as shake your hand.

I'd just like to see the fellas here who think they are the "core-of-all-hardness" tell this guy he is a pussy because of the car he drives...

 

What are you tallking about, I love coffee!!!

 

she wanted you man,, was she good lookin...?

 

Since when does the car you drive determine how tough you are. I know some serious bad ass dudes that ride the bus, and like that marine wouldnt think twice about ripping your head off if you talked shit.

Also I was not aware that having tattoos automatically makes you a wanna be tough guy. hmm. stereotypes are great arent they

 

What were you doing carrying around a woodpeck in your pants for anyway? And where in hell did you find one so big?? Everyone I've ever seen in about 4-5 inches tall....

 

like im the only one
what??you mean i am the only one??
that fuckin salesman lyed to me!!
latest trend my ass!!

 

A salesman lie?? Get outta town!!!

 

Wait a minute...... you have a 16 inch pecker? WHAT?

 

read it again....the last 16 inches...gees...some peoples kids!!

 

Reminds me of when I was 16. We always spent our evenings cruising in JP's 4 door hatchback Chevy Citation (The Beigemobile!). Since there were three of us, one had to sit in the back. One night, Matt decides to take a sprint to the car, screaming "Shotgun!". JP and me stayed out wondering what he was doing.

It took Matt a while to realize he was sitting in a 2 door ford tempo. He walked out and told us, "Just wanted to see if the seats were comfy in that car..." JP and I almost died of laughter.

 

That's kinda like me going to a Mexican resturant the other day. Walked in at lunch with my dark shades on (couldn't see shit) and went to wash my hands......in the womans restroom . Opps....sorry ladies!
