Probably the same guy they put on all the 2013 valve recall jobs :D

It is a “Corolla”.

soundman98 01-07-2021 09:51 PM

why is there a video?

DarkPira7e 01-07-2021 10:19 PM

Molested? Time to get a grip

soundman98 01-07-2021 10:32 PM

Once, an old guy asked my brother for the time. I never felt so violated

It's a writeoff.

soundman98 01-08-2021 01:31 AM

I'll start the bidding at $1. Canadian.

AE86 is a corolla, and this car is a homage to the AE86

one could make that argument it's a corolla ~

gen3v8 01-08-2021 05:33 AM

Corolla may be better

Everyone knows it's a 2 door Impresa, but not the good 2 door turbo charged Impresa, it's the slow NA version

I think he meant to say Celica.

So, what was the point of taking video of the free service exactly?

Are you pleased this fellow is no longer employed there?

Might you have info on his ethnicity or class that you can share since you already commented on his age/generation (in a derogatory manner)?



I am just trying to understand your point of view and I'm having difficulty.

Might I ask your age and profession or line of work? It's OK I don't expect you to reply and I am not trying to start a flame war.

Take care.

Looks like he deleted his post.

I doubt the mechanic/tech was even that old. I have yet to see anyone use the word "boomer" correctly. So much so that I automatically assume people who call others that are morons.
"People born from 1946 to 1964, during the post–World War II baby boom."
Youngest boomer today would be 55-56 years old.
Makes the whole situation even better if the guy wasn't even an actual boomer. Neither of them using the right names.

I crave saimin for breakfast from some dive in Honolulu. You know, in a double deep styrofoam takeout container, disposable chopsticks and plastic Chinese spoon.

The problem is, Uber Eats doesn't work with Fedex Air Cargo.

I'll need to source it locally, until I return.

Here's some food pron I Googled:

anyone 'young' now is a millenial as well(1981 and 1996). i get triggered every time they try lumping me into the same grouping as a 10 year old video game addict.
