i know about 3 people who have died on motorcycles. one in a very unpleasant and drawn-out way. i'm sure they're fun but so is speedballing coke and heroin. avoid.

I took this into consideration before finally deciding to not get into motorcycles. Fuel savings would be nice, but not sliding under the tires of a semi trailer. Washington roadways being seasonally damp gave that an extra kick.

e: also gotten the macabre lowdown on all kinds of interesting injuries, motorcycle and otherwise, from family who worked EMT. all sorts of interesting stories to tell a seven year old. needless to say, at the very least I wouldn't have skimped on protective wear.

How about FUCK THAT

Everyone I've ever seen on a bus or waiting for a bus in London looks miserable as fuck and I don't blame them

I'm sure there's a correlation between the price of the car and the miserableness of the person driving it.

Watch traffic for a while and tell me I'm wrong.
People think a fast car will get them places faster, an expensive car means people will defer to them etc.
An expensive car buys you literally nothing on the road.

I couldn't really care less about my car, mostly they've been bought pre-dented and it takes away a lot of heartache.
It needs so be solid and reliable and thats about it.

people waiting for buses in london look miserable mostly because they're in london. the great wen's local climate leads to puckered faces.

that and their buses are normally late ... because historically the roads have been congested with wankers like dauntless.

I did, I was in Mayfair today and saw at least 30 high end cars, didn't see any miserable drivers but did see a lot of hot women passengers.
Beats taking the bus

yeah fuck the bus tbh.

Nope. I didn't say 'I have to spend £100k to get hot women'.

I said if you're looking for correlation between expensive cars and their drivers (like Dilbert was saying), then that's the only thing I noticed. Correlation or causation, who knows? Maybe the drivers are smart, successful, possibly a bit more interesting than your average bus taking McDonalds worker and better at talking to women, or maybe all the women are cheap gold digging sluts, maybe both, probably a mix.

Oh and you can fuck right off with your swinging bat. You know quite well that you have master poke ball advantage being a white guy in Korea - we both know that was half the reason you went. If attracting women is how you measure your 'male valuation' then you're in for one hell of a rapid depreciation when you leave pal.

Funnily enough I managed to swing my bat at multiple women whenever I was in Korea and I didn't have a car either.

I chose my car because I like the car and enjoy driving, it's comfortable and feels like an experience or special occasion every time I get in it and go somewhere. Sometimes the roads are empty and I can go fast, it's a thrill - I enjoy it.

I met a girl on Friday night at a bar, we hit it off and I'm seeing her next week. I haven't mentioned my car and she probably won't even know about it unless we have multiple dates and we end up needing to drive somewhere.

i was addressing the part of your comment where you said that you noticed lots of people in nice cars with hot women. that's a sad reason to want a nice car. if you like driving then obviously that's something different, innit mate?

it's not controversial to say that pegging your attractiveness to the opposite sex on material things is loser-grade behaviour.

My comment mostly applies to the average person stretching themselves to buy a stupid car, that and lawyers and accountants who can afford nice cars tend to be miserable to begin with.
For the mega-rich an expensive car is a plaything, not the whole point of getting rich.
Your average moron who watches Top Gear and saves their pennies doesn't appreciate this.
When they blow a lot of cash on a car beyond their means, and discover it makes no difference to their life at all, I guess it makes them miserable.

If anyone spends beyond their means and suffers financial fallout as a result then yeah, that's probably going to make them unhappy but that's not related to cars. I know a lot of people who spend a decent amount of their free cash on cars and it brings them lots of enjoyment. It can be a hobby just like any other. Plus at least cars have some practical use.

that doesn't even make any sense. wasn't that guy like a pro-kickboxer? that's not exactly my niche.

and isn't he the guy bragging continually about his bugattis and body-count? lmao.

more about the body-count stuff and how to get da womens.

The sad thing about the Tate situation is that he could have turned out better. His dad was one of the first black chess grandmasters.

Meanwhile his meat head of a son made a career out of checks notes getting hit in the head and chasing white women. Impressive level of disappoint I am sure.

Tell her how one time a hacker was making MRAPS rain from the sky and you heroically put a stop to it.
