Ahhh..Today I got home from school, hung around doing nothing, and waited for my girlfriend to get over. When she got here, we longboarded for a while, and she sang a song that I was curious about her singing to. She showed me her voice fits certain songs better than I had realized, and that made me happy. Then, we got back to my house, and had my picked meal of meatloaf, cheese-sauce-covered veggies, funny cake, and brownies and cupcakes made by my girlfriend. Then we hung out for a little, relaxed, and she left just a little while ago. Now, I'm watching Rollerball, and it's a sweet movie so far. Most cars involving cool cars are only typical celebrity exotics, while this features a Shelby Series 1, Ferrari Testarossa, and some other cool cars. It's been a great day.

Reading what oils your gears makes me feel like s***. My life is nothing compared to yours.

Oiling my gears: U.S. Top Gear has Challenger, Camaro, and Mustang.

That may be because today was extremely exceptional for me.

Also, is the US Top Gear starting a new season? That would certainly oil my gears.

Started a couple weeks ago I believe. I didn't know about it until last week though. I like the British one better but the American one is still pretty good. I think the three really work good together they have pretty different personalities.

Okay well the gears have been oiled. Thank you sir! 👍

And don't feel bad about your life. My dad just went from the best to the worst, but I won't vent.
 
Principalities
...when you take an exam of any subject, thinking you did horrible, only to come out with a much higher grade than expected :D.

Prior to that; completing your exam. All that stress and pressure is instantly gone and you feel as free as a bird for the next 8 hours.

US Top Gear sucks :lol:

Not really. I still don't see what people hate about it so much.

But do you know what actually sucks? People that always make posts that contain under five words, are completely irrelevant to the discussion, always end with LOL and are missing punctuation.

Oiling my gears right now is the new season of Top Gear US.

I watched it, it wasn't that great compared to British Top Gear :(
Is that a Ford Fiesta faster than a Dodge Viper on the Power lap time board?
 
ParkourVeyron
Yes. A rally Fiesta.

Oh. Makes sense.

But no one wants to see you drive the speed limit in a Boss Mustang!
Anyway, new avatar is oiling the gears. It feels so weird to say that.

That's under five words. And it's not great because the challenges are lame, and the hosts aren't good. Tanner is decent but still. Top Gear AUS is horrible too.
 
mine is when I get home, open the door, and see my little 1 year old girl running to the door yelling DADA!! Its all I think about on my way home from a tough day at work. Gears oiled

Edit for second choice: Road Atlanta, sitting in turn 10B with my Dad on the opening lap of the Petite LeMans every year. Listening for the engines to start on the other side of the track, and waiting for them to come around the track before finally seeing them all burst the down the straight towards us with the popping noises of unburnt gas under decelleration, hearing all the different engine sounds -first the deisels quickly and quietly hum by, then the gasoline prototypes buzzing and growling and clawing to catch them, then the GTs are throaty and roaring, unconcerned with the prototype battles ahead but banging for their own positions. I love the sound of the sequential gearboxes making that awesome pop, just as they crest the hill and hit second gear, its a moment that sticks with you... and then it happens again in 67 seconds!

Getting home after school and going dirtbiking. Sure, it's below freezing and there is snow everywhere, but then you just put on extra clothes!
It is a lot of fun to drift in the now but I will be very happy once it melts and I can start going faster again.

It was only under five words because I was answering a question that didn't need anymore words to it. And that's not the point, most of my posts are over five words. Most of your's are probably are under ten. I'm just saying that you should try to strive for better posting quality, that's all.

Oiling my gears is working out again.
 
:lol: Today at dinner... That was entertaining. My mum sort of stares at you and it's sort of scary. And I was the one receiving the look. So I had to find a way to stop it. So I did the most gracious move of them all. I dug one hand into the baked beans and one into the chips and shovelled them all into my face! Because I know she can't stand bad table manners. But instead of turning the gaze away it turned into my new excuse to literally shovel food into my mouth... :D
 
I had a gear grinder or a moth buzzing against the screen of my PC earlier. But there is a very good gear oiler. You see I have a nerf Gun. :sly: So I put it to the test, and I shot it. I got a direct hit, and I think I may have either stunned it or killed it. Nonetheless. I took it out of the room and put it outside. I never saw it again... That should teach it for interrupting my Pony time! :p :D

So that means my Nerf Gun is officially a deadly weapon that is perfectly legal. That Oils my Gears. :sly:

Do you just search "(car name) poster"?
Anyway, the weather is oiling my gears. It's a good 60 degrees here in PA in February, which is nuts. I love it though. I was going to longboard, but there's a steady breeze, but riding the BMX will still throw a smile on. :)

Throw some T-bogs :sly:
 
I received my Acceptance letter to the magnet high schools I applied to just today. Unfortunately though, I was unable to get accepted into an IB nor a fine arts school. So that bummed me out...
Luckily, I got accepted to a STEM school and an AP school. Now I have to decide which one to go to...


And a small fine print marks it only for Grade 9, so it could change as I go, I guess..
 
That my headache is not nearly as painful as it was. I hate headaches so much so any relief is great! I also slept for two hours so I'm more energized.

I used to be able to. :indiff:

I get close to t-bog 180s though, and that really oils my gears! I do them onto the top of our box jump and then hop down the landing out of fakie again. Really fun.

Anyone know of somewhere to vent on here? Stuff is really getting bad, and having nowhere to vent is killing me.

I know! I definitely don't think it was right to close the grinder thread! Anyways sorry I know I should drop it because it's done but...
