Endless Snorts of Stupid Laughter

Wait maybe it's... English for Speakers of Other Languages.. Oh yeah... maybe?

Personally I sympathize with this guy. If my motor puked oil and parts all over the road I'm not sure I'd have the composure to worry about spelling and grammar. A blown motor ruins your day, your bank account and any free time you were planning on for the next month or so.

Of course it is fun to kick a guy when he's down though.

Go buy a 94-97 motor and bolt on your head. Done!

Jesus tap-dancing Christ, people. If you're going to try to pull a Spelling Nazi on someone, at least spend twenty seconds on either Google or Wikipedia first.

ESOL = English for Speakers of Other Languages.

Back in elementary school we were taught it stood for English as a Second Language. Keep in mind this was 17 years ago.

Nick, I'm with you, here in NC they called it ESL, however, when I lived out west, they called it ESOL...go figure...

StankCheeze 04-30-2008 12:22 AM

This is why we buy high schoolers escorts, folks.

My grammar is impeccable, and I blew up an $800 differential last weekend. :bang:

Savington makes metal salad out of his dif. MX03 loses engine parts through the block and oil pan. One was on the street and the other at the track but both were racing...

Hmmm....

Maybe our little cars really weren't meant for drag racing. Damn, I was planning on hitting the friday night drags now and then when BEGI finishes my car. Now I've got to start a parts replacement fund since it sounds like stuff is likely to break. Horsepower addiction is the root of all evil.

because I wanna fuck, I wanna fuck the dead
and I don't care how she died
but I like it better if she smells of phermaldahyde

y8s, that was the first thing that popped in to my head when I saw ESOL.

mx03tb 04-30-2008 10:37 AM

Look if i wanted to worry about my spelling or grammar, i would of done it from the beginning. I just typed that up to tell you how my day was. I bet you would of done the same thing if it were to happen to you.

Joe Perez 04-30-2008 10:41 AM

God damn fucking retards... You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drown... It's a PC-liberal thing:
"In the US, Canada and Australia, this use of English is called ESL (English as a second language). This term has been criticized on the grounds that many learners already speak more than one language.
(...)
In the UK, Ireland and New Zealand, the term ESL has been replaced by ESOL (English for speakers of other languages)."

i thought the F/IC was a good enough engine management for his car.... :) at least that's what the shop he went to that installed his turbo reccomended... i disagree with it though, dont get me wrong, it may be a nice unit but i'd rather spend 300$ on megasquirt

and yeah i got that

o okay.... you should have been watching your AFRs..... that's the weirdest thing to ever happen that i've heard.... i've ran 13.8's before and never blew up my motor (not like i do it often, but i use to run blindly without the wideband)

YOU HAVE A WIDEBAND THOUGH, how did you blow it???

Braineack 04-30-2008 02:33 PM

mx03tb once showed me a video of him making love to my wife, and it was the most beautiful thing I ever saw!

Still no excuse.
I rolled my 96 and somehow walked away unscathed, and still had composure to write what happened in easy-to-understand English.

Arkmage 04-30-2008 09:04 PM

BOV has nothing to do with boost pressure... are you referring to the wastegate? A BOV won't cause a boost spike unless your old unit was leaking and the new one is not.
