flvegan is mad at me, because I called his car a station wagon
and threatened to wood panel it with woodgrain contact paper.

I don't care if it's got a turbo, it's still a wagon. http://www.edmunds.com/mazda/mazdaspeedmazda3/2007/index.html

His last car was fast and a wagon, but somehow his newer and virtually identical car, by virtue of being fastER is not a wagon. I don't get it.

Boys. :eyes:

3. It's a bit bigger than the old one, and he said his other dane fit in there fine.
It'd be too small for me, but I haul crazy amounts of crap in my bigger wagon all the time and need the space.

2. Important safety tip:
Never make fun of Mr. Winky or a man's car.

4. The peen and I are on good terms.
Which is why I get to make fun of the car.

7. Seriously, don't cast asparagus at a man's car
It's not really logical or explainable, but it is important:

1) Don't make fun of the car.
2) Don't lean against or sit on the car.
3) Don't casually place things on the car.
4) Don't 'accidentally' leave your stuff in the car.
5) Double-don't commit #4 with a stuffed animal or an item of underwear.

9. IMHO it's almost-but-not-quite a wagon
It's just shy of that length-vs-height to be a wagon. It's not a Subaru Outback. It's close, but I wouldn't look at it and think "wagon". More likely "SUV wannabe" like the Vibe.

10. The woodgrain contact paper would be really cool!
It would give the car an awesome retro look. :P

Of course that's easy to say because it's not my car.

11. I have one of those.
I thought it was a hatchback, not a wagon (although I am not clear as to what the actual definition of a station wagon- or hatchback- actually is).

12. That car screams "I've got a big penis and I'm not ashamed to drive a little station wagon."
Better than a hummer, I say.

:hide:

:D
