I went home and drank heavily. <sigh>

...but...but if you work your ass off, you can rise to the elite class bro!! That's what I keep hearing.



Reality says different. Hang in there JR, I support your hard work bro. You get my certificate of excellence!! Copy and fill out the info and hang it in your office.

Re: What REALLY grinds your gears?

The assholes who put those "almost high beems headlights" on their cars.
Just seeing this pic or watching a commercial for these headlights pisses me off. More visability and saftey for you at the expense of everyone else on the road.

I bet it's not these types of lights that bug you. These are legitimate off the shelf products. Marginally brighter than what come from the factory.

What grinds your gears is probably the eBay/Craigslist HID retrofit kits. Those are the real offenders.

You are right! People on TR4.org are always putting those on.

They need to work on anti-glare etc tech for auto glass rather than limit lights
