Top Gear Is Back!!

Edit: I would love you to come to America so everyone can stone you.

Sums it up, getting stoned for expressing an opinion (this is what I wish the human race would stop doing)...........'only in America' ? I think so


Not sure if i've missed the boat on berating you, but can you please leave your moronic, poorly punctuated social rhetoric for another thread?

Like I said yes lets start another thread on human behaviour at some point. Believe it or not to all those that have slated me so far, I really wish 'idiots/rednecks/chavs/general nasty people' could be educated and helped, (id much rather they were then nukin em) to show them that killing/stoning whatever is not what you do when someone expresses an opinion or happens to be born with black skin. Indeed I went abit ott last night (ok VERY OTT :( ) with my solution to that problem, only because I was fuming from there behaviour. Those that think I want to nuke human beings have missed my point, no you shouldn't, if they can be helped then so it should be, but I fear -most- of those people are beyond help and will not listen to reason. George Bush (happens to be from the deep south I think?) is a great example of what happens when one of 'those people' get into power, very scary stuff tbh, the guy even says his justification for all the horrific things he has done is 'god says so' :eek:, a man that says that who has the keys to a massive nuclear arsenal concerns me to say the very least, but as previously stated this is another thread topic.

Anyways apologies to those who seem somewhat offended to my comments, but why let it bother you - after all its only an opinion, but at the very least I hope you can understand my concerns with people like this, can they be helped? or is it to late?

Back on topic then, l8a peeps

This thing? About the only shot of it was this one they didn't mention what it was I don't think either.

Aha!

Those that have instantly said it was a Superbird....gonna have to go ahead and disagree. Looks more like the Daytona to me - although Hammond and the dealership guy are right in front of the feature which would confirm it (namely, the door). Also, it's riding on Magnum wheels - usually a Dodge trait - and the rear wing post looks rather more like the Dayonta one than the 'bird one.

Plymouth Superbird with the same wheels as in the Top Gear pic :confused:

But in this pic the Daytona looks like it:

Another vote for Combat Squirrel to STFU.

On topic, I love that Plymouth (superbird/Daytona) in the lime green, unusal colour but seems to work. Sod parallel parking it mind.

Burnsy
 
You know, the more I look at that pic the more I think it could be a Superbird. The side marker is in the right place for the Plymouth. But the nose cone and wing posts look much more like the Daytona. Grrr. A couple of friends taped the episode, I'm gonna have to go round and check now as it'll bug me otherwise.
 
Also on the Top Gear pic there is a badge near the front wheel which is also in the pics I posted on the Superbirds but there is an intake below the rear window that isn't on the Top Gear pic so it's still confusing :confused:
 
Excelent Episode!... I had a mahoosive coughing fit half way through cos I was laughing soooo much!!.. :D

Showed up America for what it realy is though!...

a) Rednecks... The Most Touch people EVER!!...
b) New Orleans... SHOULD BE RE-BUILT BY NOW as AMERICA IS THE RICHEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD!!!... (supposedly)
c) The Stupid 'Litigious' Woman who Demanded $20,000 or She'd sue them, because the Camaro was a 1997/8 model rather than the 2001/2 model Clarkie said it was!! :rolleyes: It was FREE FOR GOD SAKE!!!...

I thought it was a 1989 rather than 1991 model, but yes I agree, it is stupid to sue for something that's being given away free anyway. I don't see how she's got a leg to stand on really considering no money has been paid for it anyway, but there you are. :confused: Plus if there was less people like this woman wasting time and more helping people rebuild then they'd be well on their way. :)

Try walking into a pub frequented by Spurs supporters when wearing an Arsenal shirt. Friend of mine did that, nearly didn't make it out alive. Stupidity isn't unique to the Deep South.

oops Yeah... I'm a decade out! :D

But You forget... Many People in america Sue and Win for the stupidest things!...

eg:

a) a woman suing a furnature shop because she tripped and fell, Breaking her arm and leg cos of some unruly kids that were running riot in the store... She sued and one a LOT of money!... BTW the Kids were hers!!..

b) a Burglar falling through a glass roof onto a kitchen table and getting his leg badly sliced by a kitchen knife (had to have it amputated I think)... Sued the home owner on: i) leaving a DEADLY WEAPON out and not locking it away. ii) Loss of earnings!... He won!... doesn't matter that he was going to Rob the home!!.

c) The Winebago Man!!... (you must have heard of this one!) He bought a new Winebago, and on his way home enguaged the 'Cruise Control' thinking it'd control the vehicle (including steering, breaking etc..) went into the back for a Coffee... Left the freeway at 60mph... Sued.. Won and now Winebago have a Note in their manuals saying Cruise control is only a Driver aid not a replacement (or words to that effect!!).

Shows that Americans will try anything if thay can see a 'Buck' in it!!.. And that they are just a bit Stupid!! :D

Sorry to any of our Colonial Friends who might be reading this!..

Indeed you are right, that's where the majority of the suing culture comes from in this country. You hear of similar cases over here. Can't say i've heard that Winnebago sotry, but it does sound a bit unbelievable. That said there are some pretty stupid people around, as you say. :D
 
However, the BBC is standing by the programme, and a spokesman said: "We've had just over 80 complaints about the dead cow on the roof for an audience averaging 6m viewers.
Enough said really.
 
Some Animal Rights Fool said:
Top Gear is being completely irresponsible promoting this activity. Our message is simple. If a family programme like this thinks it is reasonable to degrade animals in this way to endorse such unthinking attitudes to our fellow creatures, then we must encourage viewers to boycott it.
Sounds like a plan to me, her and her two friends can boycott it - while those of us who don't mind seeing a dead cow on TV can continue to watch!
 
I've got to admit, as an animal rights follower and a vegetarian I'm biased to say that wha they did to the cow was a bit distasteful.




but my god did hammonds face as clartson came over the horizon make it worthwhile!!

I'm sure this is an urban legend because its mentioned in Liar Liar.
