It's like people who call African American "Porch Monkey" which is a veiled way of calling them monkeys. Then they say "I didn't know that meant that", it means that they don't work or are lazy but everyone knows better that people who use this phrase.

What really floors me is how many people think it's a joke and are clapping or encouraging this in this forum by thanking the perpetrator.

It is a veiled nothing. How can you be stuck on one definition that nobody but you and somebody that put it on one site has ever heard of?
The context of its use was clear and no matter how much you whine and cry that it means something else will change that.

Lets see...the urban dictionary says that the N word definition is
"A fully grown nigglet
Look at how fast that nigglet grew up. He's a N..ger now"

By your logic, I guess you can use the N word in the forum too and use urban dictionary to feign ignorance. It doesn't mean that in Canada!! Don't be offended.

you keep bringing up how this is the same as a racial slur against black people. What is wrong with you man

You cite the rules and then proceed to break just about all of them in the same post. Yet another sign you are a true snowflake.


You claim the first time that you were using the word snowflake in context with my crying and complaining but when I explained the situation that is of interests to everyone here, (the fact that if you get stranded with a tank of 85, you need to find a way to empty it out to get work done at the dealership). You are the one that got irate, started making accusations, and started calling me derogatory names. I then explained to you with proof from a well respected dictionary site what this meant. You then tried to cover your butt by pulling out some definition from an urban dictionary that anyone can contribute a definition.

I'll trust THE dictionary on this one. Screenshotted for your convenience since you have to pay for a subscription. I would venture to say someone at Cambridge doesn't get that an insult that is directed at someone doesn't have to do with other traits (i.e. their sexuality) but instead with their behavior.

I remain unconvinced that the term is even used in the manner in which you insist. I have not hid behind anything nor at any point changed my story. Each of your responses has become progressively worse and met almost every check box for the common definition of a snowflake. You even have managed to use many of the catch words such as bigot and Natzi. In fact you are pretty much the snowflake poster boy at this time. i used a meme that describes you perfectly not sure how you or anybody know the two guys are gay. You are just making up shit at this point. You have zero clue on my thoughts or opinions on sexual orientation so have no grounds for the accusations you have made based on your own personal (and otherwise unknown) definition of a word. Show m one single other source that gives your definition. You claim my source is invalid because people can add to it yet it makes no reference to your definition. Ya that is the real world.

Wow, this entire thread is a dumpster fire. Just so we're clear, I'm in Texas where I commonly hear people use the term "snowflake" in a derogatory manner, and it has NEVER been used in reference to someone's sexuality.

The amount of drama over a word in this thread in unreal. Don't do warranty fraud, don't be mean to people. Be good to yourselves, be good to others, and be good to your car.


Based on your behavior in this thread pcguru2000, you are just digging your hole deeper by falling more and more into the stereotypical behavior commonly referred to as "snowflake". It might be a good idea to quit while you're ahead, because you're clearly in the wrong both with attempted warranty fraud and with your insistence of maliciousness on the part of others.

OH no doubt there have been more than 2,000 views on your stuff. Are you now confused as to what media you are on? Think it is instagram?

Sorry can't play any more I have to get rested up so I can invade Poland tomorrow.

@pcguru2000 you're coming across as clueless, the amount of clueless posts you've made on this forum and dumb troll questions or posts you make are getting up there. Most of the questions you pose are easily found through forum searching and research which you fail to do. Comments you've made on posts are out of place and don't really make any sense or are just plain false

Also posts like these:

You've ask about the cylinders themselves and e85 making them cleaner, and crazy things like "steam in cylinders", or why the DRLs turn off show an inherent lack of knowledge on this car, tuning and e85. Please do more research before you make posts or do ANYTHING more to your car. You even dumbly thought you could mix fuels on the stock tune with e85.

Also you are quite literally just grasping at something someone else called you and pretending to be offended at
This is no longer a warranty or issues thread topic because of your reaction to a simple snowflake comment

You will not run into a situation where you need to empty the tank, and if you do you probably shouldn't be running mods anyway if your planning to go to the dealer to figure it out. If it's something serious you tow it home diagnose it and if your sure it's not tune or e85 related then you drain the tank, flash to stock and tow it to the dealer and feign ignorance, as that's what you wanted to do anyway and be aware, if they void your warranty, you can fight it all you want, but be aware you've made the attempt already to defraud them in their book.

Think before you post and research more before you ask questions is the jist of my word wall.....

I just posted about his behavior on this forum that I've seen in the post above my reply to you

Took the words right off my keyboard. He really is clueless about this car and reached for the furthest possible definition of snowflake to pretend he's offended about....
