I really do hate it when,,,,,,

OK, this is serious,,,well, kind of. I'll start it, and I'm looking to have this be the second longest thread ever. Second only to the grid girls, for which I still haven't forgiven Wayne.

I really do hate it when people call my car 'Just another Volkswagen'


PS. I really do hate it when people post threads like these, is UNACCEPTABLE!!!

Awww! Did the driver of the cute wittle rear-engined, air cooled car get his feelings hurt?
I really do hate it when that happens and they whine about it.

OK, you guys really missed the boat on this one.

Matt J,,,,NO
Chris,,,,,this is my non-violent month, no
Matt,,,,,,I don't like cats
Olde,,,,,quit winking at me, people are already talking
Dantilla,,,,,at least it runs!

You guys are supposed to fill in what you hate. It's not about my "Whine", it's what bothers you. Kind of an informal bi*ch session.

Geeees, I quit. I'm gonna go put my motor back in

Is that an air-cooled hopped-up VW motor you're putting back in? You're putting it in the back of the car, just like those old VW bugs? Remind me again how it isn't a Volkswagen? Remind me why the comparison to the most popular and well-engineered passenger car of all time is an insult?

People don't remember the real VW bugs anymore..............it's not a problem.

Michigan road salt is good for something afterall.

I hate it when people pass me in the hallway and ask how I'm doing, instead of a simple "good morning" or the really complex one......"hello." I like it when people call my car a VW. I grin with pride and thank them. I heard someone once say the VW Beetle is the best automobile ever produced. In many ways, this is hard to dispute.

ok ok... in the spirit of the original intention of the post...

I hate it when.... you think a repair is going to be simple, and it snowballs and costs like 10x what you originally thought it would.

OK, here's my pet peeve:

I really hate it when I'm having a really great dream but I have to wake up to take a leak.
