    Ironic to want to drive a Corvette but be uptight about people even OBVIOUSLY JOKING about going fast in it.

    Ironic that it's not OK for a flea market sale to go bad, scammer or not, but driving recklessly is?

    How many accidents have you guys been in?

    Or you could take it as the joke it was meant to be and stop being the PC police.

    I have been in a couple of accidents and the funny thing is. None of them involved me or the other party speeding.

    So how is that for your theory? :tongue: The Smilie was a joke by the way.:rolleyes:

    Serendipity, tell me you have never driven at all recklessly? Tell me you never went faster than the posted speed limit? Tell me you never looked at a map while driving or looked at the radio while driving?:confused:

    All of these acts are reckless. So get off your high horse and take a joke for what it is please. :eek:

    Why don't you ask Face about the time where I went on a cruise with his Camaro / F-Body forum, and couldn't keep up with them because they were all going 15+ mph over the speed limit? He knows everyone that went that day and they can verify... "slowest vette around" was what I heard next time I met up with them.

    No kidding.

    That's your choice, no need to judge those that don't agree, sheesh, never saw such a mamby pamby before. You don't want to drive over the speed limit even 1 mph or go through a yellow light or stop in a crosswalk or occasionally not use a blinker, more power to you.........doesn't make you holier than thou or a better driver.

    So someone who sells an amp that they know is on its last legs to an unsuspecting customer is wrong, but speeding is OK because "everyone else on the road is"? Give that excuse to a cop and see what he/she says.

    Just like Bernie Madoff and the Wall St. guys - "Everyone's doing it", must be business as usual / OK

    Give me a break.

    ^ I am referring to the insider trading / hedge fund fraud that occurs on Wall St.

    No offense to the honest Wall St. brokers (which there are, BTW)

    You're going to be the belle of the ball this year, aren't you?

    At least the 'entertainment' is covered for PF.

    You used it as justification of your point I was just agreeing. Sarcastically agreeing but agreeing nonetheless.

    Even you can see you logic is screwy.

    I never said scamming a member on the FM is the same as driving recklessly.

    One is between the buyer and the seller.

    Dangerous driving affects all of us on the road. Can get people killed.

    Nah, he won't. 'Cause last year, we dealt with the same BS and he lived maybe an hour away or so and never showed.
