Took Diablo out fer a test drive today, after fixing a minor gearbox glitch, and decided to pull up and check my fluid levels after noticing that a heavy right foot resulted in a really good impression of Batmans ride when he's hotfooting it from the Fuzz.
"You people are disgusting..."
Now, knowing Diablo had many odd traits, but talking not being one of them, i swung round to see........a fairly well presented "Euro-Hippy" well presented in the sense that I couldn't smell her upwind, and there was a thankful absence of armpit hair.
"excuse me ? What people?"
"Your lot-in your gas-guzzling carbon fouling cars. I think you should stop and think about what your doing to us all...."
Now, i'm the kinda person who isn't really that confrontational with these kinda peeps, afterall, they think they're right, and no-one can win....however, it's been a crap day today at work, and I HATE FUCKING ANTI'S - especially when they use the term i knew she was going too.....
"And what concequences are those then, love? Enlighten me..."
She looked triumphant, kinda like someone does when you get a pat on the back from yer boss.....
"Well, for a start, that thing has an enormous..."
[i:ajfuiszc]**here it comes**[/i:ajfuiszc]
"....carbon footprint. Do you know how much monoxide and carbon you car has just pumped into the atmosphere? And those things eat fuel like it's going out of fashion. I'll bet you drive it like that all over the place, and probably costs you a fortune to run. And you lot always play your music too loud. You do know your type are killing people in the artic and....."
"whoah there love, your saying i'm KILLING eskimos??"
"well, yes, in effect your emissions are contributing to the....
"Ok, look, here's the thing, this *Eskimo-killing-monster* only actually comes out of my garage a few times per year - it's a pissing show car - or didn't the murals and shiney stuff kinda give that away?
This "evil" car has come from a country where most states have strict emission laws, and has so many emission reducing systems on it, there is little difference to stuff over here....not to mention..."
She looked really peeved at this point..
"So your telling me you don't think your doing any damage to our planet then ?"
"No. Your an idiot. Btw...is that your Transit over there?"
"yes, why...?"
"bet you drive that a lot, huh?"
"I see what your trying to do, and i'll have you know it's a..."
"Ford, yeah, and a early one at that, looks like a MK3...V6 i think they were...... I notice your friend still has the engine running too, how many Seals have you killed so far love, while loosing your argument to me then ?"
I've never seen a hippy blush before.........
"so, kindly bugger off, and take your "Carbon footprint" with you before I plant an oily bootprint on your arse....."
So watch out everyone who's driving a yank, or you'll get some sweaty oicks camping on yer lawn soon, making a "passive affimative protest" about your [i:ajfuiszc]Evil[/i:ajfuiszc] planet killing cars...
... Pity...she had a nice pair of tits too.......
