Just been told my coupe looks "sick" (which in the youth of today terms means "very nice"?)

To which my reply "no actually it's very healthy at the moment but thanks for asking".....

I should be on stage right? rolleyes

When my garage says my car is "sick", sadly I don't think they have the same meaning! ooo

The best comment I have ever had was when someone called it a shit car.

There were plenty of other normal, boring, everyday cars around but he yelled out that comment about my car.

I've heard kids calling my car 'sick' and although I hate the term, I can't help but grin laugh

Worst comment ever was when a kid shouted 'look at that shit Vauxhall' shocked If I wasn't on my way to work, I'd have turned around to batter him inform him it was not a Vauxhall laugh

had mine mistaken for a ferrari before... gave me a giggle..

dunno why the term sick originates from to apparently mean good... maybe i am just getting old or kids should be taught proper english.

suppose it's the same as this text speak.... it may as well be chinese to me.

probably come's from the same pool as the baggy pants issue.
kids these day's find it a sport to have those pants so dam low as they can be without dropping, thereby exposing there entire 'rear' in boxers to the general public.
I wonder if they realize where this baggy pants come's from... probably not cause if they would know they wouldn't do it haha. (if anyone wonders, it come's from American prison, the lower the pants are the more your 'rear' has been visited by fellow inmate's crazy )

I was sitting in Asda car park the other day when a car pulled in the next bay and a young kid about seven got out the back and went phwoar, and ran to the front of the car where his grandad joined him to have a look. I heard the kid ask his grandad what kind of car it was and he said, "Dunno, ask him"

I put the window down and the kid came up and said what kind is it, I said "It's a fiat" and he went "It's boss!"

Boss?? What the hell, my car's a gaffer laugh

Passed three chaps today that where having a smoke out the on the doorstep of a pub (no you can't smoke anymore inside pubs in my country). Anyhow I passed them really slowly cause of a trafic light and lots of traffic in the traffic enter of town. I see one of them poking the other two that had there back to me, you could see the guy mouth "check out that car". So they did for about 30 seconds or so while debating clearly about my coupe. One of them starts to make signals to me, clearly asking me to lower the window. So i did, at that point he says
Dude nice ride what is that? Is that some sort of concept car? One of the other guys responds, of course it is silly have you seen anything more beautiful? While i am trying to think what to respond i hear guy nr three say, it has to be a Ferrari. At that point the road ahead was clear and the lights where green for me. The idea of him thinking that something so beautiful had to be a Ferrari made me floor the pedal to the medal and leave them behind me as fast as possible. Silly young people. Could have been the best day yet.

My nephew was telling me last night about one of his uni housemates describing this class looking yellow sports car he had seen round the town and the noise it made when it left him at the lights.
He was a bit gobsmacked when the nephew told him it was his uncles car and he would be working on it over the Easter holidays.
