This guy went full retard

never go full retard

Thanks. I think I'm done after this response.

cazzyodo > CAcoalminer

You will never hear from them again...it always ends that way.

CAcoalminer > cazzyodo
05/28/2014 at 17:23

We'll see. I thought the same thing after my first response.

$kaycog > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 17:25

He'll probably just keep on with his blah, blah, blah.

CRider > CAcoalminer

FP troll. He didn't respond to me after I threw some facts at him, he's just an ignorant troll that escaped from Youtube. Probably some British kid.

There's only two ways that "shit" and "Ford GT" can fit in the same sentence.

"The Ford GT is the shit."

"The Ford GT shits on Ferrari all day."

CAcoalminer > $kaycog
05/28/2014 at 17:31

Unfortunately.

cazzyodo > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 17:31

Typical response will be a similar mash-up of "derp" and "trololol".

Ignorance isn't bliss, it's stupid.

It's funny because even though the GT40 was built in Britain, the first version was horrid. The GT40 only won after Ford shipped the cars to Carroll Shelby to fix the British engineers' mistakes.

Hint: there is a dismiss option for a reason.

CAcoalminer > Viggen
05/28/2014 at 17:36

So true.

CAcoalminer > CRider
05/28/2014 at 17:37

Well thanks for your effort.

CAcoalminer > For Sweden
05/28/2014 at 17:38

Yup.

Crocket Bernet > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 17:38

Call him a cunt I hear it's a term of endearment, like shit.

CAcoalminer > Gamecat235
05/28/2014 at 17:38

Oh. I never noticed that before.

CAcoalminer > Crocket Bernet
05/28/2014 at 17:39

Haha. No, I'm too much of a gentleman for that.

Gamecat235 > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 17:40

No worries. I am VERY hesitant to use it in many situations. But there are times where full nuclear is the only appropriate approach.

Racescort666 > Crocket Bernet
05/28/2014 at 17:41

Or a twat.

TillTheWheelsFallOff: Brocoma > CAcoalminer

You handled that really well. I always get far too angry on the internet especially when it comes to my cars, political beliefs, and state pride. I had to control myself this morning when there was a post about Texan politics this morning. Good on ya.

CAcoalminer > TillTheWheelsFallOff: Brocoma
05/28/2014 at 17:46

Thank you. Are you from Texas?

Brian Silvestro > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 17:48

I hate people.

Also, I can't wait until you tell him about those GTs you happen to own.

TillTheWheelsFallOff: Brocoma > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 17:48

Yes sir! Houston, specifically.

CAcoalminer > Brian Silvestro
05/28/2014 at 17:52

I've thought about it but I don't feel like it would serve any purpose and he might call me out as being biased (which I am but I don't want him to know that).

CAcoalminer > TillTheWheelsFallOff: Brocoma
05/28/2014 at 17:53

Very cool. I live outside of Austin.

TillTheWheelsFallOff: Brocoma > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 17:54

Really nice area. My parents were actually looking round Austin after we (the kids) left the house.

CAcoalminer > TillTheWheelsFallOff: Brocoma
05/28/2014 at 17:55

Well my wife and I sure have loved it here.

Brian Silvestro > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 18:08

On the inside I just want to see his face. If this argument was taking place in real life, then you'd just invite him to come outside to the parking lot, then point at your car.

Golden.

Manuél Ferrari > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 18:13

The Ford GT does suck.

At sucking...

CAcoalminer > Brian Silvestro
05/28/2014 at 18:27

That would be quite gratifying.

Brian Silvestro > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 18:44

Exactly. Ugh I wish the internet were like that.

CAcoalminer > Brian Silvestro
05/28/2014 at 19:25

Apparently he's driven one:

http://jalopnik.com/i-drove-a-gt-o…

I have no clue how he couldn't fit in one. I'm 6'5'' (or was when I was younger) and fit fine.

Mochimaster > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 19:26

You have multiple GT's!?!?

Brian Silvestro > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 19:29

Then how can he fit in a GT40?!?! You mentioned that in your comment.

You also mentioned you like the DBS more than the V12 Vantage?!?!

I... disagree on that one.

I can't wait so hear what he says next.

CAcoalminer > Mochimaster
05/28/2014 at 19:32

Maybe...

CAcoalminer > Brian Silvestro
05/28/2014 at 19:36

Well I've owned a DBS before so I'm a bit biased. Haha. Needless to say, both are great automobiles.

I can't either.

Brian Silvestro > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 19:39

The only things that really bother me about the DBS is the way they made the hood look, there's just too much holes and such (I also prefer the V8 Vantage hood to the V12) and those amber reflectors/turn signals inside the headlight housings. Just seemed out of place. Otherwise, it seems like an ultimate manual-transmissioned V12 cruiser.

CAcoalminer > Brian Silvestro
05/28/2014 at 19:46

I agree. The number of "vents" did seem a bit excessive. Haha

The joy it brought me on long trips is monumental. What a great car. Also, unlike some other cars that I've owned, I always felt like people admired the car rather than scowling at it.

Brian Silvestro > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 19:50

That's the real reason why Astons are so special. There just so...classy. Nothing crazy. Just pure elegance. That's why I think they went a little over the top with the new Vanquish, too much carbon bits. Trying to make it more hardcore than what it's supposed to be.

The DB9 is probably one of the most beautiful cars on sale right now!

Kinja'd!!!

CAcoalminer > Brian Silvestro
05/28/2014 at 19:57

I completely agree. I remember seeing the new Vanquish for the first time at its Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance debut and thinking how much of a departure it was from its predecessors. Thankfully, the new DB9 is understated and quite gorgeous.

I wonder what the eventual Vantage replacement will look like.

Brian Silvestro > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 19:59

I really hope it doesn't go in the same direction as the V12 Vantage S. That's another over the top thing. It should be introduced sometime soon as long as Aston doesn't run out of money.

That would be heartbreaking.

CAcoalminer > Brian Silvestro
05/28/2014 at 20:08

Yeah I've been watching their developments with bated breath. What do you think about a possible AMG, Aston merger?

Brian Silvestro > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 20:17

I think it could only help at this point. As long as they keep making V12s and manual transmissioned cars, I'm all for it. It'll at least keep me asleep at night, knowing that Aston will live.

CAcoalminer > Brian Silvestro
05/28/2014 at 21:00

That would be ideal.

Slow4o > TillTheWheelsFallOff: Brocoma
05/28/2014 at 22:07

Houston represent.

Slow4o > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 22:08

Man he took his sweet time to come up with that comeback.

TillTheWheelsFallOff: Brocoma > Slow4o
05/28/2014 at 22:10

Word up.

CAcoalminer > Slow4o
05/28/2014 at 22:19

Yup and it wasn't even very effective.

Slow4o > CAcoalminer
05/28/2014 at 23:11

Ok so I didn't read the original link and thought this was a response to you roasting the guy about the Ford GT's build quality like a couple months ago. Hence my first response haha

CAcoalminer > Slow4o
05/29/2014 at 00:00

Haha. Now that really would have been a long time.
