I munched on some chips and salsa, and I remarked to my girlfriend that the salsa was about as spicy as ketchup. This is also fairly common in the Midwest. In fact, sometimes ketchup is too spicy. When her parents returned home, she mentioned casually that I'd said their salsa tasted like ketchup. It was one of those moments where you realize you didn't do a good job specifying what information was confidential. It was too late. I sent them a bottle of dried habanero as an apology. Her mom added a tablespoon of the dust to their chili without trying it first and had to throw out the whole pot. I burned her twice without even trying.
love it

Why do people add such junk to their cars? I have seen Hondas with the V12 badge on it. Is this to impress us? Its more sad and funny if you ask me.

I have a turbo rear valance thats going on my 944 n/a. Is that the same? I would never put on a Turbo badge. I like the looks of it and it finishs off the rear of the car. Plus its Porsche made. I will most likey remove the 944 badge just to clean it up Not to be a pretender.

it's not just the honda ricers. I've seen mustangs with GTR tags, BMW's with Mercedes front ends. it's all 100% horrible.

unless yer trying to make fun of it....cause I met a guy at the drag strip with a nissan 240. he had EVERY badge you could think of. NISMO, DINAN, ROUSCH, GTR, TypeR. real funny cause his car was fast. he was running high 11's on street tires IIRC.
