    Girls and cars don''t fit together
    or if they don't say that, then:
    if you're a girl that likes cars, you're basically supposed to have short hair and no make up (people are surprised that i don't look like the kind of girl that plays pc games and is interested in cars. You then tell them about Sophia Floersch... and they still complain)

    Cars are to women what horses are to men: they do have a small following within their gender, but that following usually gets stigmatized and, for obvious reasons, shrinks. That being said, the people in that small group does seem to be embraced by the members of the hobby.

    So yeah, you're part of a very small group, but that shouldn't make you want to quit it. Do what you love.

    Horses are also nice ^^ like i literally live on a horse Ranch so i wouldn't be good to not like them. Other hobbies besides reading about cars and playing games is vaulting. And i think more boys should start with it too. Why let your gender/sex decide what your interest are.

    I personally would love to know how to ride a horse but I'm too heavy and lazy to learn :/
    OT: Something to the affect of "The world is worse off then it was back during (time before 2001)"

    Well it isnt that complicated. Of the horse it used to it, you basically just need to sit on it and use your foot (either kick, really soft of course! Or pull your feet down a bit) so it'll move forward and pull with your right and left arms a bit into your desired direction.
    Generelly speaking for a horse trained to be used by strangers, for my own horse or others that are used for artistic sports etc it can be different
    And of course every horse is different and it also can happen that it just wont do what you tell him/her or it doesnt like you xD
    Sry for bad describtion i'm not a native speaker..

    I once rode a horse in western Utah. One of my favorite life moments. Saw some prarie dogs, Jackrabbits, the lot. Got to be a cowboy for 2 hours.

    I hate when muscle/classic car guys pick on car guys that prefer modern or foreign cars. You're not a car guy if you can't respect every car.

    I may not like most modern cars I do respect them. The only problem is I don't respect most company's that make them due to them being incompetent.

    I hate people saying weak bumper is for crumple zone/pedestrian protection. Manufactures are just saving cost. Most cars have a proper crumple zone and bumper does not affect a heavy impact result. But a durable bumper will save repair cost after a slight collision. And pedestrian protection is more of a shape design matter. When a person is hit, mometum is transffered regardless the damage of a bumper, but different shape will push him/her to a different direction leading to different result.

    Yeah, I will say I hate Hyundai and Kia for this reason. Their cars are terrible and I'm sure they know it but they advertise and treat their stuff like its the best investment you could ever make and you're a fool for not buying one. They're such arrogant douches when it comes to advertising. I'm not even gonna go into how they copy styling from better and more succesful brands.

    Well of course they advertise it as new and great and beautiful etc.
    That's how advertising works

    Their cars are totally fine. I really don’t see where you’re coming from on this. Consumer Reports rates them very positively.

    When people support monetization/micro-transactions that are egregious and serve no point to the gameplay.

    ^Conversation I had with a friend of mine who parades the source engine around as an acheivment and not a bunch of bugs taped together.
