Sooooo I am a little drunk, as it is Friday and it is time for drinks.

I joined Oppo just before the Kinja change and I am still here, but a lot of other people that added a lot of flavor to the community have left or are not as active. People come and go, but some of them leave a bigger footprint on the comunity, like Skycog and her love for Ford GT's or Stef Srader and the bunneeeh, or McMike and Automatch who is now writing for Jalopnik, or Klaus Schmoll,. But there are people that abandoned us or are not as active, because of one readon or another like: DasWauto or Third Pedal Girl,Sparf, Xander, Proud of Boxer and many others, but they will be above everything for their contributiion to the community and for the people that remember them. Oppo is not spared by a lot of different controversies that happen on regular basis, but I love you people, because of Miata is always the answer and how cool most of you are, I just love you and never change.

Dawwwww, Oppo loves you too! What ever happened to DasWauto? He just sort of faded into oblivion.

I'm mostly just sad because Silvestro got an internship so now he mostly uses Oppo on mobile. Which means a dramatically lower amount of GIFs and memes from him.

I can't tell if it's happy that it's dressed up that way (like "I am the Lizard King" or if it's pissed off and embarrassed

I do miss our Scandinavian muscle car owners.

I also remember Bill Jordan, FalconHoon, Dominican, and more.

(sigh)

I'll try and be here for a long time to come.
