Wanted to share this BuddyClub video (Showcases new tail lights!)

Heya all. BuddyClub has made this sweet little film called "Midnight" which they have allowed me to release. It features something that might just perk your interest

Enjoy!



PS not sure why it wont embed the video.

Thank you for not saying "peak" your interest. I bet you also call wheels "wheels" and not "rims" and you don't confuse wings and spoilers. I am not

Looks like Lambo Huracan tails.
Seeing that it's from Buddy Club, no surprises there.

Can't decide whether I like them or not at this point.

No release date or price etc yet. Have known of them for some time and they sent me this video to show so it's nice to finally put the word out about them. I'll post any info when I can.

I think you meant to say "piqued" your interest... the first and last time I ever dated an English major in college has traumatized me to the point that peaked my interest now triggers me

ALSO HERE IS WHAT I HAVE FOUND ABOUT THE NEW BUDDY CLUB TAILS

- Buddy Clubs US website shows nothing.

- Their Japanese website shows the tail lights but does not show any buy
now or how to buy area for the tails.
- https://www.buddyclub.jp

- If travel to their US, Japanese or International facebook pages you will see a link to a youtube video posted by some guy named Gabriel Lee with a lot of Japanese writing. Video linked below.

-


- In that video page in the beginning of all the Japanese writing in contained in the video description you will see the name of a shop or company named "aaimotorsport". If one were to google "aaimotorsport" the website for this shop/company pops up. Here is the link to this companies website.
- http://www.aai-usa.com/

- On this companies homepage this is how they describe themselves

"AAI Motorsports is the sole agent and importer of Buddy Club and TOM'S Racing automotive parts which we distribute primarily within the North, Central and South American region. Along with this, AAI Motorsports is also an exporter of U.S. sourced automotive parts products to Asia."

- So if you want the lights call this company located in Ontario, California. They should be able to supply the lights to North Americans whenever the lights are released if they aren't already released.

**And that is how you cyber stalk like a millennial to get what you want.

**An alternative route may be to go through Japanparts.com and exchange some emails to see if they can get the lights.

Did watch the video, and the lights are pretty cool, but I couldn't help noticing that part of this is almost a shot-for-shot of the first Pennzoil Joyride followed by some spirit of Tokyo Xtreme Racer shots.

I think the joke went over your head, but let me spell it out. He said "perk your interest" which to me is fine. Many proletariats, being the unlearned rabble that they are - say "peaked my interest" when they should say "piqued my interest" because phonetically they are equivalent. When I said "thank you for not saying 'peaked'" I was thanking him for not incorrectly using peaked and instead using perk as an alternative. Do you understand now?

Don't blame the english major for englishing correctly

Why do I walk away from this whole thing thinking it is nothing but a thinly disguised sales pitch from somebody that is not a vendor on here?

obviously my counter joke went over your head -_-!

The notion of "correct" use or expression of a language is a little silly to be taught as though it's so absolute. This is a large contributing factor behind poor k-12 performance in the subject. The English they experience is not the English taught so there is a large disconnect. When I took the GRE Exam "SAT exam equivalent for masters/Ph.D programs" a large amount of the language used in the English section is most definitely not the type of English most American children have ever commonly experienced since 1940 or before.

The big dirty secret that most professors and people with an English Ph.D won't tell you is what historians and cultural/linguistic anthropologist are taught from day one.... and that is that language just like culture and people are always evolving. The English we speak now in California is different from contemporary English spoken in the deep southern states of America which is different from contemporary Queens English which is different from the English spoken during the industrial revolution which is different from Elizabethan Shakespearean English which is different from the Germanic/Latin roots they came from which is different from blah blah blah you get the point.

Honestly the idea of piqued vs. peaked, condensations such as "don't/can't" along with incomplete sentences such as "What the fuck/WTF" being improper use of English should really be considered more of a historical usage and not something to be taught as contemporary English. This can also be applied to all languages including stuff like sign language and math. Comparing Issac Newton's handwritten math to Einstein's handwritten math to a contemporary college students math notes compared to how a contemporary software engineer/coder writes out that same math concepts are all very different and will only continue to evolve in the future it's what humans do.

So to conclude:

- Rules on a langue to make it static are silly. Rules are meant to be broken

- If person 1 can understand the message that person 2 is sending his way then language was properly used as a tool to communicate. Don't let some English professor or grammar nazi try to tell you otherwise and keep you in the past.

**This is me being on your side NRXRaptor. Not sure if that came across or not before this disclaimer
