hmmm, now that I thought about it -

Good news : They smashed a Prius.

Bad news : 5 seats didn't have typical Prius owners in it.

Its fun to watch stuff getting crushed by a tank, especially a Prius

I'm kind of surprised it didn't burst into flames.

A democrat's worst nightmare.

I watched a video of a bulldozer running over a 3800 Buick Lesabre which actually started and ran afterwards. The Prius is actually a good car for the times .

Now that's a pretty mean thing to state. Don't you believe in Karma ?

In 20 years a car with an IC engine will be a rarity. The sticking point is, of course, the battery. Once that technology is solved, it's pretty much over for the IC engine.

You must have some "inside" information on that subject. Can you share ? I have to bet that the old fashioned technology is going to be around for quite some time.

Sorry for the late reply, I just saw this.

I should have prefaced my remarks with "in my opinion.." as that's what is was. I have no inside information, other than (again) my opinion that the IC engine (except perhaps diesel) is pretty much teched out as to lower emissions and better mileage.

That's ok, sir. It's only my opinion that we will be using IC engines for a long time yet. BTW, what does that little signature photo signify ? I can't make out the words. I suppose I probably need glasses.

My girlfriend just showed me how to expand the screen , I see what it says now.
"as any idiot can see I'm white. I cannot show my face because you're a pedophile" Don't tell me there are pedophiles on this forum ?

Interesting. The sign in Bob's signature comes from the Clubhouse. It's supposed to be another guy's kid who he said he did some obscene act where CPS had to get involved. Mods used to keep these guys from posting avatars and signatures from Clubhouse arguments in other forums, but they don't enforce that rule anymore.


Clicking the picture in Bob's signature blows it up larger. The img properties say something-GAYLORD-something, whatever that means.

Dougie, the original pic has "PonchoV8" and "Dougie" in the text at the top, but I photoshopped it out JUST SO it could be posted in the lobby as well as here.

So, if you don't like it, too bad. Complain to the mods and see where it gets you, you thin-skinned sissy.

"Bob: please don't make Dougie cry any more."

You're telling the wrong person, troll. I'm not the one asking.

This is the Lobby, super-genius.
