We are going to have a dance and grab new partners when the DJ calls out "snowball"?
I find this horribly offensive for our members that are unable to dance due to physical or mental limitations.

Wow... just... wow. I take a month or so off from the forum (drifted off into Land Cruiser ownership/focus) and the first thread I read is this one. Good times. Didn't read the whole thing.. first and last pages only. That was enough.

Best way to empty gas tank, especially for the OP (and.. btw.. if you have to ANNOUNCE to the world that you're a "guru," chances are very high that you are not), is to take a very long, relaxing drive in the country until the engine doesn't run any more. There'll still be some residual gas in the tank, but you'll be most of the way there, and you'll feel a lot better. If you keep the air conditioning cranked, you might not even melt... snowflake. I have NEVER called anyone that before, but in this case, you have shown yourself to be the quintessential definition of one.

I use the term "snowflake" all the time.

Example "come on snowflake, quit whining and just do it".

For me, whenever anyone is whining being special the term snowflake gets thrown around quite regularly.

Am I mean and don't care about someone's feelings? Yeap.

Anyways, on topic, um, I've got nothing

I would love to see some of these kids today go through basic training, back in the old Army.

I had some drill sergeants that could come up with a "line" that would literally crack me up. Several times, I had to turn my head and walk away, so the trainees wouldn't see me laughing.

When I was a recruit I was being a **** one time and a SGT (I think he was LOG) got right in my face and yelled " do you like drinking and fighting", my reply was " I don't drink anymore SGT", the look on his face was priceless, he told my CPL to deal with me, later that day we sat down and had a good laugh, the SGT was not well liked, apparently all the CPL's thought it was the best comeback they had heard, he told me if anyone asked to say he PT'ed me to near death.

Ah yes, the good old days.

Old but still in boots.
