FEAR THIS!! (or at least pretend to)

On my way to work today I pulled up to a red light behind a bright yellow Ford Focus. I couldn't help but laugh as I read the "FEAR THIS" sticker this young girl had put in her rear window. Fear what? Your anemic 4 banger? The tough, muscular looks of your car that resembles an M&M?? Your long list of recalls?? What exactly should I fear? Maybe I should fear her driving?

Anyway, thanks to her my morning started off with a great laugh

I wouldn't care if it was the fastest car on the planet...it would still look like some sort of life-size Fisher Price toy How can we fear that? It's like asking people to fear Elmo

i use to have a small 4-5" decal on the back of my mirage that said

"Who's Next?"

No one really ever got it on that car..till they raced it. Gotta have something to attract a little attention.

That's just insane. Those 4G63 iron blocks are pretty much bullet proof and make a great tuner motor.

Sweet car dude!

My sentiments exactly.

I've feared him ever since I heard about the lady at the manufacturing plant who was sewing two large marbles between his legs, until her boss stopped her and exclaimed, "NO! I said give him two TEST TICKLES!" <rimshot>
