I hate MINIs

I'm 38 years old and wasting my life on a website that gives me artificial pleasure, and I'm driving a car that I can only wish could be a cool car. I guess I'll never have money for a cool car since I spend all my money on "cool" parts on a crappy car. ...Trying to make diamonds out of ****, ya know?

beep beep back the truck buddy, clam down and think about what you just said. I hope you dont really hate your Mini. I can understand your complaints though. I dont think I will ever have enough money to do anything to my Mini, but you know you dont have to do anything to it if you dont want to

I think he's kidding and referring to the JCW-Craptastic thing, so relax, people. If this thread goes wrong, it will be locked.

Ok. Ok. My family finally got me on this one!!!

I have been home for christmans for 11 days. I am the oldest of 5 kids. There are now 19 of us here at my parents house for the holidays with grand kids. I have been getting worked by everybody this trip because of the whole MINI thing. They claim that I am obsessive and crazy for it all.

You can see by my gifts this year in a MINI talk post, which were mostly MINI, in my free time I am walking around the house with a notebook computer on NAM, and all I talk about with my family pretty much is MINI related... I even went out today and detailed my Dads CL 600 because I was bored...

It all came to a head tonight when we were all in the family room watching the ball drop in NYC and I was sitting on the couch going over the instructions for my new OCC not even paying attention to the festivities on TV.

My little brother who is 21 and very tech savvy said "dude you are such a dork, I am going to get on this"

Well I guess he did! The whole family has gotten a blast from this. I guess it is pretty funny.

But dont worry my obsessive MINI addiction is stronger than ever...

Wow I just noticed the post before lying down in bed and there were already so many concerned replies......

Sorry for the confusion, Jasun [B]"MINI lover"[/B]

lol ok I don't need to flame you then, at least for now

Yes keep the addiction going, as time goes on you'll either be openly obessive or very good at hiding half your life revloves around having fun are your car and your laptop is basically stuck with a constant NAM window open inthe foreground or background it always seems to be on lol.

Oh and by the way I am not 38! Getting there but not yet. He got me on that too!

This is my famiy. Thats me in the red sweater in the back, and the soon to be dead man brother is in the front left with his head sideways behind my dad.

As you can probably see there is alot of joking around that takes place in our family!!!
