Yes, you should have said "relative moron", not "absolute moron"!

That's really bad!

People are inclined to burst into tears if you hold your own opinion...

I love it when people say that......



My dad's bigger than your dad. I saw you picking your nose and eating it. I could buy ten of them if I wanted......

That reminded me of a conversation I overheard.

This guy was attempting to show off his new Discovery (!) to some poor victim. The phrase "I could have had x, but I didn't want x" kept coming up, which led me to believe that it is either poverty spec, or the victim wasn't impressed.

Now every time I see the guy, that replays in my mind and it's somewhere between funny and annoying.

Indeed, it was rather suprising for rralston to go into a rant about an absolute moron.

If you click on an Evora, press ctrl+p then cut the bit over the windows off with scissors, you won't be far wrong.

The roof panel stows where the rear seats ought to be, like a 308 GTS.

I think that's what Lotus said...

If you use a B&W printer for this, you'll get an example of the special colour chart for the German market!
