If only the US got the Rally Edition(s). My S2 is the American version of the rally, but the design overseas looked better.RyaNtheSlayA wrote:

Love VW design, not fond of the VW dealers around here. They push warranties more than Best Buy. I actually can't think of a VW from 2012 that I don't like.

The mentality from alot of riders in south florida is.."If it's night time and you are on a bike, and the cops catch you for speeding. You dont belong on a bike"

I dont want to sound like a jerk, but Accura is not something you want to drive if you consider yourself any thing about above average. Yes, a corolla or a Honda civic will reflect that you are on a limited income

Women aren't allowed into the Hells Angels, they're called Mamas, or Moms, and even to achieve that status you have to be initiated by being gang banged. After being a cum dumpster you become private possession of the chapter, meaning her legs are open for any member.
This thread is really something else.
edit* When I have an opportunity to quote HST, I take it:
There are mamas at any Angel gathering, large or small. They travel as part of the troupe, like oxpeckers, [1] fully understanding what's expected: they are available at any time, in any way, to any Angel, friend or favored guest -- individually or otherwise. They also understand that the minute they don't like the arrangement they can leave. Most hang around for a few months, then drift on to something else. A few have been around for years, but this kind of dedication requires an almost preterhuman tolerance for abuse and humiliation.
The term "mama" is all that remains of the original expression "Let's go make somebody a mama," which was later shortened to "Let's go make a mama." Other fraternities have different ways of saying it, but the meaning is the same -- a girl who's always available. A widely quoted section of the Lynch report says these girls are called "sheep," but I have never heard an Angel use that word. It sounds like the creation of some police inspector with intensely rural memories.
The mamas aren't pretty, although some of the newer and younger ones have a sort of demented beauty that erodes so fast that you have to see it happen, over a period of months, to feel any sense of tragedy. Once the girls have developed the proper perspective, it's easy to take them for granted. One night in Sacramento the Angels ran out of beer money and decided to auction off Mama Lorraine in a bar. The top bid was twelve cents, and the girl laughed along with the others. On another occasion, Magoo was packing Mama Beverly on a run to Bakersfield when he ran out of gas. "Do you know," he recalls, "I couldn't find a single gas-station attendant who would give me a free gallon of gas for a go at her." The public prints are full of testimony by men who take pride in having "sold their talents dearly," but people who understand that their only talent is not worth fifteen cents or a gallon of gas are not often quoted. Nor do they usually leave diaries. It would be interesting to hear, sometime, just exactly what it feels like to go up on the auction block, willing to serve any purpose, and get knocked down for twelve cents.
Most mamas don't think about it, much less talk. Their conversation ranges from gossip and raw innuendo, to fending off jibes and haggling over small amounts of money. But every now and then one of them will rap off something eloquent. Donna, a stocky, good-natured brunette who came north with the exodus from Berdoo, once put the whole thing in a nut. "Everybody believes in something," she said. "Some people believe in God. I believe in the Angels."
Each chapter has a few mamas, but only Oakland maintains as many as five or six at a time. Among other outlaw clubs the situation varies. The Gypsy Jokers are not as mama-oriented as the Angels, but the Satan's Slaves are so keen on the practice that they take their communal women down to the tattoo parlor and have "Property of Satan's Slaves" etched permanently on the left rump-cheek. The Slaves feel that branding gives the girls a sense of security and belonging. It erases any doubt about peer-group acceptance. The branded individual is said to experience powerful and instantaneous sensations of commitment, of oneness with the organization, and those few who have taken the step form a special elite. The Angels are not given to branding their women, but the practice will probably catch on because some of them think it "shows real class." [2]

I am guessing the average american mentality is to save money for retirement.

Re: Help with purchasing a new car
@Luke-That's an awfully rough way to break it to someone, being so direct like that. I don't know whether or not he knew, but either way...
Also, there is the possibility she was an "Old Lady", IE, her husband/boyfriend was a member. The phrase doesn't mean age, of course, but comes from old sayings. Old Ladies don't really get passed around like mommas do. Old Ladies also tend to be prettier/"higher quality" than mommas, and are treated with more respect.

Not to start anything but yikes, just read the past few pages. Better yet, don't, you'll lose a chunk of your brain in the process.
This thread is full of dumb and silly, but for the first time ever I request a lock. King doesn't actually want our advice, rendering this thread useless.
