tonight i went to taco bell with a few friends of mine and we're in the parking lot eating and this vw beetle convertible rolls up, top down, with like 4 or 5 people stashed inside. as they walk over to the drive through window (?) one of them starts talking in a derogatory gay voice and says "my last boyfriend nicknamed me mini, cause of the size of my *****!"
it took a few second to click but i was just like "how dare he! after what he just hopped out of!?"
the nerve! when he walked back he was talking about the spider or something and said "at least THATS fast!"
y'know if you don't like my car fine but you don't have to be a complete jerk about it!
i wish i was more mean! i woulda given him a piece of me! :evil:

 

What a dork.
Obviously suffering from MINI envy.
These types don't even deserve a good pounding..
I usually just point and laugh..

 

The Drop Top Beetle is .... WEAK.
if you followed them onto a fast road, you could get in front of them... then spray the back window at speed and spittle all over them. then disappear into the night.

 

People just don't have any respect, they don't see any need to. When you live in a big city, the people you see around town will probably be your first and last. People don't connect socially anymore and the worse of it comes out when things like this happen. It's a small example but a very common one, it can be seen everywhere. There is something very wrong with this culture to say the least...

 

Oh man, what a looser, he makes fun of the MINI after getting outta a drop top bettle. My friends make fun of me for wanting a MCS, but a drop top bettle is even worse. I'll show them soon though.

As for mister drop top I would've said leave the rest of your "lets go out get drunk and laid I have no education and my parents gave me this car" friends and lets go on the road, then make fun of me, if you catch me!

Was he talking MR2 or Mitsu, and are either of those faster than an S in a straight line (dont even need to ask about twisties)?

The planets must have been in wierd alignment...o look on our faces....


No monstersinme--good to meet you in Litchfield--hope to see you again!

 

ok my first reaction is if your going to get a convirtable...at least get one that looks sporty when you have the top down, rather than something that looks like an over sized baby pram!!!
Definately suffering from mini envy...mini's and beetles are both classic cars but the revival of the mini has been sooooo more sucessfull!!! hense they are stopping making the beetle coz they cant sellthem!! and lets not over look the fact that hitler designed the beetle as his choice of car for the ****'s! ahem Mr drop top....get the ****** out of here! :evil:

>> :evil: and asked him to repeat that. The guy denied what he did so I just drove off into the night with my magnaflow blaring

 

go rfibanez!!! haha i love the cool aproach!!

personally i would have reversed over him but i like your method too!

 

>>personally i would have reversed over him but i like your method too!

I kinda did that cool reverse peel out like in the Italian Job, that probably intimidated him .....

 

the following applies to the male mini owners.

we are confident enough with our manhood that we are able to drive a car called the mini with out feeling any less of a man. people like the beetle owner are jealous because they cannot have the same level of confidence.

BTW, the beetle is an awful car. it is sooooo slugish. the drop top version even looks slow.

 

Just the other day a group of young 'men' informed all within ear-shot my MCS is a 'gay' car. Since I was stopped at a light at the time I got out and informed them Mouse was indeed 'gay' as in happy and joyous, full of fun and makes me smile. Aside from the assorted blank looks, the speaker looked at his buddy and said 'Oh sh*t, I thought a chick was driving'. I have real long hair and happened to be sporting my 'biker' look that day - not very tall but I have the wide part covered. The light turned green so I wished them all a nice day and drove away. In the rear view mirror they looked like a herd of deer caught in headlights.

 

As some may already know of me, don't **** me off, or fear my mouth. I don't swing fists, but I'm known to dish it out verbally to anyone.

A likely response to the dillhole's comments would be:

"A) You're right, you do have a small little *****, B) nice lisp, I can tell you've been working on it for awhile, and C) What, was the salesman hot or are you just a complete moron .... Beetle cabrio ..... let's see supercharged pocket rocket or gerbil powered trend-o-drop top cruiser .... ya, I must be the effeminate one ... "

I DO NOT put up with verbal harrasment of ANY kind. And if I was a girl it'd be worse, because y'all can say WAY worse stuff and not throw fists over it.

I got some bad experiences with rude people insultingme and my mini aswell. Once I stopped at a red light waiting for a LONG time on a left turn, a really beat up rusty YELLOW YELLOW civic HB put up beside me. The young kid long at me for a min or so, I return a pleasant look. Then the kid roll down the window and said "F*cking Red Mini, what da H*ll are u looking at you gay freak ?? " ( I was like holy Sh*t ) .... that kid was like 16 -17 about 5"6 and I was like 27 at a much bigger size and 5"9. I kindly return a comment " D*mn you're cranky, Did you mom not give u enough allowance to sup up your civic? But I *really* like the rusty Yellow colour.... ". I grab a quarter from the cup holder, and threw it at him and said " all you need is to ask, I'll give u a quarter ... "

Then I smoked my tires, blasted my way through the left turn at top speed and watch the little civic shrink from my RV mirror. This civic is really trying hard to catch up.... but no chance ....!

 

HAHAHHA .... Talking about down top beetles.... a freind of my just bought one a couple of weeks ago ( he's a real beetle fan. he owns like few different years of beetles .... crazy dude .. .) and this car is just filled with problems
1) buttons on the radio are falling off
2) missing spare tires
3) rattle noise .. don't know where is coming from, lets hope bots are in place !

to top it off, one day he took me out on a cruising day on the new top down beetle, and while he was putting down the top, IT GOT STUCK !!! HHAHAHAHHAHAHA
It won't go up or go back down.... it was in the middle ... I was like holy Jesus.....

I don't know what happened afterwards after we got our car towed to the dealer... but my friend was PISSED ..... VW.... PSSHHHHHHHH !!

 

They did realize they just hopped out of a car with a flower pot in it, right? Volkswagen **** bastards! That was like the time I was at a stop light and the two girl pulled up to me in their riced out CIVIC, and said "Is your **** mini too?" I just said.."Why dont you come and sit on my lap and find out..."

 

Hmmm.... Nomonstersinme,

Next time I'd purchase a few extra bean burritos & loosen the wrapping, - they're really great for playing "CATCH!"

MINI: The best horse for the buck!

 

hahaha i love it Davbret. thowing him a quater now that is pure class!!

 

Best advice I can offer is ignore them

Being a guy whose not looking for a fight, I like to mess with their minds. When someone gets really pissed at me on the road (ya know, when their cursing and flipping and all), I like to smile, wave and blow them a kiss Freaks em out, they have no idea how to react... and it usually ends there.

BTW, we owned a 2000 GLX Turbo Beetle for a year and half (we bought it JUST to hold us over until we could get the Mini). It was a great car in some ways... fast enough, handled decently (not nearly as well as the mini, suspension was WAY too soft) and had increadible brakes. However, it was built in Mexico and had a lot of stupid problems ...bolts coming loose in the rear hatch, seams coming undone in the leather seats (w/ only 36k easy miles on em), rear brakes that disappeared after 15-20k miles, and WAY TOO LOW body components... The front air damn is an accident waiting to happen on these cars (I later found out how common it is on a VW Beetle website). We backed off a friends lawn at a party and caught the air damn on the grass... and SPLIT ONE OF THE FRONT FENDERS IN HALF... over $2k damage to replace the fender and re-spray. Oh yeah, and if you need to replace a light bulb you need to remove the headlight COMPLETELY from the fender.... I wasn't my first VW, but it is my last for a while.

BTW, I've never had a bad look or comment from someone on the Mini...but for pete's sake, isn't it obvious that the comments made to others were all out of envy or ignorance.

Keep in mind that you just can't argue with STUPID .... they never know when they've lost.

>>Was he talking MR2 or Mitsu, and are either of those faster than an S in a straight line (dont even need to ask about twisties)?

ooh he was talking about the MR2... i know nothing about it.
the beetle by the way was not his... but he still hopped out of it.

but anyway, thanks guys you gave me a good laugh this morning!
i did give him some lip, i kept saying really loud "how dare someone jump out of THAT car and tell me my car is gay!?" and like "at least my car doesnt look like a basketball" and then my friends were all being extra loud and making comments. if they hadn't gotten back to their car by the time we finished eating we were gonna throw our garbage in their car.

Anyone watch Queer Eye for the Straight Guy yet?

It's really funny... it's done so well on Bravo that I bellieve NBC is picking it up.

Anyway, what's the underlying theme... that us straight guys have no sense of style... So much so that the average straight guy needs 5 gay guys to make him over and show him what is cool

I.E. Gay = Cool....

Following that logic, I'd say my Mini is Gay

Yeah, VW convertibles, expecialy the Cabrio, have always been THEE gay car. Straight guys are usually too afraid to drive them. I'd drive one (who cares what people think, right), but for those guys to rip on the MINI is just absurd. If they were gay they'd probably be a little nicer.

 

Regarding the VW/**** comments, BMW doesn't exactly have the cleanest hands in the world when it comes to the WWII era, either.

So far I've been lucky as far as confrontations go. Typical scenario would be me pulling into a gas station, or fastfood parking lot that had some sort of crowd, some pointing and sometimes snickering would start and it gets replaced with when I climb out when the image of a little car and a big guy (being a 6 foot tall, 265 pound powerlifter with a shaved head and a thick beard) does not match what they were expecting.

They can call my car 'gay' all they want. Hell, they can call ME 'gay' all they want as well. I have it in my capacity to show them just how 'gay' I am!
