Bert Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 So, what did Sarah think of the note? That type of thing doesn't always go over well. Ernie McStreet's facebook page: http://www.facebook.com/erniemcs.street
LostDenverite Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 im just joking around i said that bc i know there are some MD members I know, I'm one of them. :itsme: Ditto. You even met one of them (ME!) today :laugh:
LostDenverite Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 Interesting I gotta know, what kind of car was behind you? I'm curious too as to what kind of car was behind you.
TATTRAT Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 So, what did Sarah think of the note? That type of thing doesn't always go over well. While I have never me the OP, or Sarah, if she gets mad over an annon note left on a car, that is just dumb. Sounds like my my ex(Not Dana for those that know us). . . . .HER:I had a dream that you cheated on me, you better apologize! me: What?? I just woke up! Amy has a most unusual middle name: thecarbehindyou. Is that Slovak? flickr
TATTRAT Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 I'm curious too as to what kind of car was behind you. whatever it was, it was down for anything. Perhaps a Geo Metro? flickr
Wizzer Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 The car behind me was a PT Cruiser (yuk) Sarah thought the note was hilarious. it was her idea to post it here (sans email). I think you underestimate how cool my wife is. She emailed this "Amy" after doing some Internet detective work. it would appear that she is a 27 year old geeky girl living in Woodbridge. (Sarah is a good Internet dectective) the email contained a nice "My husband is too shy but you sound like a nice person" sort of thing. I'll keep you updated. Steve "Wizzer" P.

Maybe you can convince Amy to get rid of that PT Cruiser and get a proper car like say..... A MINI!!!! Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman

LostDenverite Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 (edited) Or she could go for fun and get a cabrio!!! :top: HEEYYY! You sayin' Clubmans ain't fun?!? If she's used to a PT and having some cargo room, a Clubman which is functional and fun, she be easier to bring into the light by showing her a Clubman. Edited June 3, 2012 by LostDenverite

Bert Posted June 3, 2012 Report Posted June 3, 2012 It's not just the stash, its the total package. As my daughters would say... you've got swag, or is it just the car? Enjoy the compliment and glad to hear that Sarah thought it was fun too. It is going to be one of those fun stories you get to tell.

LaurenMini Posted June 7, 2012 Report Posted June 7, 2012 Absolutely a Countryman - 100%, no doubt about it... hence my higher center of gravity remark. I don't know if that's a Countryman. It seems to only have one set of doors. Plus, I thought the front grill dipped down on the sides. However, when I went to verify that, I see CMs with no dip. :hmmmm2: 2012 R60 | Home 9/16/11!

rickyr53 Posted June 7, 2012 Report Posted June 7, 2012 Saw Green Cactus pulling out of the BB&T parking lot yesterday morning in Falls Church. I would of waved but you would of been like who the hell is that in the CR-V.
GreenCactus Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Posted June 7, 2012 Saw Green Cactus pulling out of the BB&T parking lot yesterday morning in Falls Church. I would of waved but you would of been like who the hell is that in the CR-V. I'd like to say I would've waved back anyway, but I was probably annoyed with traffic and not paying attention to drivers. I cut through that lot almost every morning to avoid the people who are going across 7, instead of turning right like I do. I'll keep my eye out for you, though!
LostDenverite Posted June 10, 2012 Report Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) Tag-O-Rama! Downtown SS. Spoke to this driver (I usually only post pics where I haven't spoken to the MINI owner) and she said she's been tagged before. Maybe now she'll take the hint and jump on board DC/SS line (DC side) Laurel Edited June 11, 2012 by LostDenverite +1
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted June 12, 2012 Report Posted June 12, 2012 In the morning no one chats, but on the way home in rush hour traffic it is not unusual for me to get comments about Tigger. Today I'm sitting dead on 14th street waiting for the traffic to clear and this dude in the huge USPA truck next to me says "I think it's mean!" I realize he's read my "It's not cute, it's mean" sticker So I wave back. He asks what year Tigger is and then he says that he has an '04, which I tell him is really cool. Then he tells me his co-pilot likes VW's, and the other guy reaches over and starts yelling about how cool VW's are. So me and his friends start yelling back that MINI Coopers rule. Then the light changed It made rush hour so much more fun Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman
