Anti 4x4? Nope - Jealousy? Maybe.
« on: April 12, 2006, 15:19:53 »
Lunchtime. Take the Range Rover out to Tesco for fuel and a bit of a rough wash to get the mud and salt off it.

Park up and enter Tesco to get some food.

Wander out....what's this? I spot someone putting something under the wiper of Bagheera. I speed up a bit and catch up with the person. At this point please note I am wearing an Anthrax tour shirt....

Me : "Hi...what's that you put on that 4x4?"

Note sudden worried look, then the up, down, ah he's not the owner look.

Hugger : "A flyer to explain to them how they are destroying the plant <and more anti 4x4 rhetoric ad naseum>"

Me : "Oh....I wonder if they will take any notice? What sort of person drives a car like that anyway?"

Hugger : "Rich t*ats. You know the sort....too stuck up to realise what damage they are doing."

Me : "I'd never thought of that, is that why you want them banned?"

Hugger : "Yes. They should buy smaller and more fuel efficient vehicles that are not so dangerous to pedestrians."

Me : "Ok...as a matter of interest, where can I get these flyers and what car do you drive?"

Hugger points over yonder to an MPV!?! Hugger then explains about the anti-urban 4x4 stuff.

Me : "You have a people carrier, how is that any different?"

Hugger : "It doesn't cost as much!"

Me : "Understood". Cue HUGE grin.

At this point I unlock Bagheera, remove the offending fake ticket, inform the hugger I am going to report her for littering, and thank her for giving me her numberplate.

The look on her face. Absolutely CLASSIC. I wish I'd had the foresight to take a pic with my phone.....

You're unbelieveable Thrasher !!

How could you possibly wear a T-shirt full stop. All those poor cotton fairies that you've killed in the process, let alone all the gallons of water used in it's manufacture and to top it all off I bet they had to be flown here on a plane from foreign parts, again you're polluting the atmoshere without a care in the world. No doubt you were wearing cotton jeans, cotton socks and no doubt cotton underwear too. Hooligan.

As for going to a gig, think of all the coal they had to burn to produce 65mgwatts of electricity to power the amps and lights, you could have heated a small town for two decades, you wasteful man you. I'm speechless.

i cant believe that a MPV owner would have the cheek do do this ?

I would understand if she was riding a bike, but a MPV with at least 6 kids ! :LOL:  

( i made the 6 kids up - but is true)

Brilliant. Well done for keeping your cool. Me...I would have lost my rag, big argument, lots of blood & tears (mostly mine), so I would have lost the moral high ground and not discovered her true intentions.

Should we start an anti MPV campaign as they use the same amount of fuel, take up as much road but cant help the needy when they're stuck?

great idea, making a serious anti-sports car/convertible internet site would be easy... you could easily fill it up with trash like on the anti-4x4 ones (they're fast & dangerous, use too much fuel, seat only 2 people, hairdressers etc). the same answers would come up (most are small MGF's etc) would prove what a load of the bull the whole anti thing is

anyhoo... funny s**t!
