I'm also one of the very few single ppl at work, the youngest as well, so they always give me a hard time

lets face it. we spend time on ,work, school, cars,, gfs, working out, etc.
it would be very hard to be focused there are a lot of people around you, especially toxic ones. it will be nearly impossible to hang out with 10, 15 people who you consider so so friends.
2, 3 good ones is enough imo

This is a self-serving b-llsh-t thread.
So none of you have ever passed another car of lesser value, summed up the driver and snickered? Right....
The following response was posted on page one of this thread. Can anyone see the irony here:
"But yeah, some people don't like Benz because of the snob factor. They think all benz owners are showoffs or something. Usually these people can't even afford Civics."

hehe. this sounds like the "two americas" that John Edwards is preaching: in one america, people are driving mercedes-benzes and in another america, people are driving honda civics.
if you hate a brand simply because other people can afford them and you can't, that's jealousy. Me, I can't afford a ferrari but I still love every model they have ever made

My Thought;
You shouldn't have been talking to chicks about cars - normally they know nothing about them, and it just isn't worth the conversation time.
If you are in your Mercedes, and she raises the topic of cars, change the conversation ... you are just not interested in cars - got it?
If it looks like you aren't going to score, walk her to the door, give her a nice kiss, turn around and get into the Merc and drive away.
Go out with another chick the next day.
If you feel like it, maybe call her for a "definately wana score" date a few days later......
.....Gotta take control of your life.

Last Friday night I was sitting, having a drink with my lovely wife, when this young guy pulls up in a new CLK55 and tosses the keys to the valet.
Dude slides into the bar and notices a real tight lovely sitting alone at the booth next to us.
He walks over and real smoothly tells same young lovely, "Would you sleep with me for a million dollars?".
Of course she noticed the wheels when he arrived and whispered back, "Sure, Honey, why not?"
Dude responds, "How about $50?"
Lovely, "WHAT DO YOU THINK I AM? !!"
Dude, "Lady, we already determined what you are, now we're just negotiating the price"
