Butterflykisses - haha unfortunately it was to my work :impissed:
CoolMe - I will do
Scary stuff driving alone!
Drive safely. And by that, I mean don't drive like a BMW driver.
I've heard something about BMW drivers but I have no idea what it is
Skakitty -yeah this was my 2nd time, first time was a pretty stupid mistake tbh :rolleyes:
The only known cure, as of the time of writing this, is to drive another vehicle.
It's a crying shame, as BMWs are incredibly well-designed and engineered cars.
Yes, that's exactly what happens when *anyone* drives a BMW. Sweeping statement by any chance? Idiot.
To the OP, ignore this. Congratulations, btw. My advice? There are idiots that drives in all types of car - keep an eye out and expect the unexpected. And enjoy learning to drive
I drive a Yaris, but that's not the point. And yes, a part time teachers salary with a 1y/o will get me very far in the world
You simply have no clue. Idiot drivers are in all makes of car. I was cut up rather badly by a volvo the other day. I'm not tarnishing all volvo drivers with the same sentiments as you seem to be doing against BMW drivers.
Though one group I'm happy to speak up for is white van man drivers. They're much better drivers than most, on the whole.
My point is that you are making rather huge assumptions and sweeping statements that are not fair. You cannot tarnish all of one particular group with the same brush. It's like me saying all muslims are terrorists.
Ok, rather extreme example but the point still stands.
Oh, and I don't believe that all muslims are terrorists, btw.
*sigh*
Another well won argument you have there. :thumb:
I think the point is that you're basically spreading your prejudice onto a new driver, who should really form their own opinion.
Imagine if whilst she's looking out for one of your crazy BMW owners, for example, she misses the old biddy in the Honda Civic who happens to have turned across her path. Or the Audi driver doing a risky overtake. Or the Ford driver going the wrong way. Do you see?
I do drive a beemer by the way. But I won't take your comments personally, because I know they're not actually based on fact.
In all seriousness if you buy a BMW you are not going to suddenly become a very arrogant driver, and mostly if people see a BMW they are not going to expect the driver to be really bad unless at the time they see them they give them reason at the time.
It's just one of those sayings I suppose, not really a prejudice.
I have a cow collection at home so this is very exciting!
Cows are wonderful.
You should see our house. Hrm
Sometimes I do feel that there is such a thing as too many cows ...
No it is not possible.
Lovable_Secret, give it six months and then tell me what you think.
littlemissy...I want to see your house! :yippe:
There's this craft shop in my town called Craft Daft and because it's on a street called Cow Wynde the owner has made a huuuuge how theme! I love it!, complete with lifesize painted cow model out front that gets painted far from the original cow pattern at times....TIGER COW ::::D!
Stargalaxy...oh I will
It's cow-city! Even our clock is a cow, and our daughter has a cow cup and numerous moo-ing objects. I think it is an obsession. Not mine, though!
Please don't tell my husband about that shop. Ooops ...
Oh my!:d
LOVE!, my room is my own little space so it's the same, I have cow clocks, cutlery, cups, many figurines!
I'm moving out into my first flat in a couple of weeks...my boyfriend doesn't know it yet, but it is going to be FULL of cows!
haha I won't
star...it was almost 6days actually
