Embarrassing number? Not being able to spell "embarrassing" correctly while trying to insult someone is a lot more embarrassing.

Takes a lot of time? Many of us have/had desk jobs where I surfed the internet at work to pass time. Not all of us have the privilege of walking around and posing in front of fire trucks all day.

Lol we need spell check on this thing. Get work done then and stop checking your facebook and posting on your my350z account on company time! That's something a 20 year old even knows. Thats why I dont want a desk job by the way, so the most exciting part of my work day isn't lunch time...

I see your other whiner post didn't last long. You need to learn a little about respect. I'm not old by no means. Older than you though. Its not about about post counts, its about paving the way in this industry.Where would this forum be if in 2003 the majority of Z owners were 17 barely affording their car payment and insurance. How much of an aftermarket would there be? The Z would be exactly where its headed now,becoming the new Civic.

Thats why Im upgrading to a Vette z06 in 2-3 years and giving my Z to my father for christmas or his birthday of that year. I agree the Z is becoming more and more the new present day Civic, and the Z gets WAY TOO MUCH credit on here, which is understandable being that this is a Z forum and for some this is the nicest car they have/will own for a number of reasons. And a few of the older drivers need to learn some respect also sir. Fair is fair. Enforce the rules to all!!!

I'm not in the office all day. Hence why I chose this job and not the nuke computer code job. I got paid to travel. I'll be traveling a lot more when my initial training is over.

And I did emergency response for 5 years. I've been in far more hazardous environments than your brothers. Have they responded to a radioactive and corrosive gas release? I have. By myself.

UF6 gas releases are not your everyday occurrence. Your brothers wouldn't be allowed to respond to some of the $hit I've seen. Your brothers would probably want to throw some water on a fire, which would kill everyone in the room and contaminate the entire plant.

We can keep this pissing contest up but you'll be the only one soaked.

I almost have my bachelors degree in hand and will be working towards my own masters in public administration shortly. Just because you have a masters degree doesnt mean you have no faults...

Yes, yes... everyone had big aspirations and dreams. Your dream is owning a car.

Until it happens it is only a dream.

Respect is earned. I don't need to learn anything in that regard.

LOL @ "Almost" and "will be".

I know I have many faults. I have a potty mouth, I'm immature for my age, love to get a rise out of people, probably party too much, and like to be anti-PC.

So when you give your Z to your father what happens if he ends up on this very forum making valid points about the immaturity of most of your generation. Just curious

You mean your grandmother is going to give you hers? Where is that old post where I taught you how to talk like a grown man? I guess I have to do it again, big boys speak about what they do have and little bishes (such as yourself) speak about what they will do.
