Have a read, cry, cringe, grr... everything you can think of at this log of convo...


[22:43] <+Colleen> Mini's aren't cars, Erynn! We've been over this.
[22:43] <+Colleen> They're toys.
[22:43] <+Colleen> For children.
[22:43] <+Colleen> Possibly modded out ride on mowers.
[22:43] <unique> Colleen... You've confirmed you know little about them
[22:44] <+Colleen> Yes yes dear, no one knows as much as you do about anything.

And then..

[22:39] <Klutch> those are possibly the gayest rims ever, unique
[22:40] <unique> They're superlites... like.. minilites..
[22:40] <Klutch> l2RS watanabes, not faggoty fake superlites/minilites


And then i just wanted to punch them all in the face. The end.

I dont drive a mini becuase of what it means to others. I don't drive a mini so others think I'm cool. I couldn't give a crap what my friends think of it, your friends think of it, any one thinks of it. It makes me happy and thats all that matters.

Get over it. not everyone likes stinky old cars which break down a lot, and they shouldnt be expected to!

I don't even care what my missus thinks of it. And she borders on hating it at times. But thats her perogative.

'a mini is for life, not just for christmas!'

Just a tip Erynn. If someone doesn't get it, they will never get it. Just don't bother arguing with them. Find someone else to talk to.

Lol.. Yeah, i get over it. I just cop it daily, several times. Almost by the hour and unfortunately the mini community here are either related to me or ignorant old bastards anyway so i don't have anyone in the same boat as i am.
Call me emo but it frikkin sucks not to have anyone near me that understands.
I'm the sort of person who even when i don't like something i'll accept it and when it's a passion of someones i accept their passion, don't necessarily take it on or like it.. Suppose sometimes the same respect in return would be ace.
