Stanced car, lifted truck, giant chrome wheels, donk'd... don't care. We can ridicule in jest because fun, but genuinely don't care.

I agree, but I would also add that you gotta be willing to take the ridicule to dish it out. Lots of kids these days can't take it without going mental.

Jeez grandpa take out your hearing aides when you sleep. (jk) I leave my house at 0330 and I'm running nameless longtubes, motiv op, tanabe fp, and agency power cat back - it's not quiet... My neighbor asked me last week why I didn't go to work a couple days last week (had a cold) because he couldn't hear me leaving (to put it in perspective, he lives a quarter mile away from me). So I might be in this class - no sound system though. Guilty.

You might as well go buy a truck now, you've been christened. |
