Re: Gotta get me a couple of these.....

I used to have a 1971 Twincam Escort. I'm sure glad it didn't sound "turbocharged". WHY would you do that?
There's a place here in OZ selling "flamethrower" kits. It's some kind of sparkplug in the tailpipe system. The term used over here is "fully sick bro!" [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

I thought it was something different - and just anagrams
Take the FU from the first and replace it with the SI from the second and then the SI from the second to the first word and it is quite different!

One world and so many types of English

How wrong could I be??

Obliged and delighted with the English language,

Re: Gotta get me a couple of these.....

"fully sic bro" means I'm a 17 year old boy,I just got my driving license,I'll put this on my dad's 1982 astro van when he lets me drive it and be transformed into Richard Petty on the high banks of Daytona.

I'll have to take it off when I get home though or my dad will know I'm stupid and not let drive the van anymore.

I love this line from the auction description:

Re: Gotta get me a couple of these.....

maybe it should say "make you sound like a right w***er just like the rest of your mates hanging around the macdonald's car park". if you want to sound big, then go big!
