1983? Ha ha ha. Only in Brownsville! Ha ha ha.
ReplyDeleteHa ha ha ha ha
Somebody stop me. Ha ha ha
The laugh is ultimately on you, Anonymous @ 12:05. . . . . Automobile connoisseurs appreciate vintage cars. People like you lack that appreciation. I'm almost certain that, if given the choice between a vintage car in mint condition or a 2012 Kia, you would choose the new Korean offering.
ReplyDeleteThat's just a generational thing, a maturity level difference.

You likely believe that, Barton. 1983, partner, is not quite "vintage," although perhaps it is to someone in a border town. 1983? I see it as nothing more than a, perhaps, big city car that for some reason made it to the Valley. Is there a Nissan dealer in Browntown? But it would be like you to draw on an almost-30-year-old car to paint yourself as somneone who appreciates quality, Unfortunately, the model is, at best, a third - or fourth-tier beauty. May I suggest you look into the Porsche, the Audi, or even BMW as vehicles that would stand to your breathless criteria as to what makes a vintage car. 1983? You are one sheltered blogger, your life rivaling that of Rip Van Winkle.

Matter of fact, I'm driving the luxury version of the KIA. A 2012 Sante Fe Hyundai. Superb ride.

anon @3:01 PM,
DeleteWould the "big city" you hail from be perhaps the metropolis of Austinburg, where Brownsville's ropa segunda clothing sells as high dollar "vintage"? No problem. There is no need to quibble with you about the value of things because it's simply determined by what someone is willing to pay for it.
As for your longing for our border town, that's understandable, too. Brownsville is an acquired taste, like vintage automobiles.
Jim
I'm in Brownsville, Jim. BTW, no self-respecting owner of a 280Z would claim it was made by Nissan. Datsun, yes. I long ago stopped longing for this town. It failed to meet my needs and it pisses me off. Brownsville an acquired taste? Not hardly. More a measure of a villages's desire to be nothing, which is why your post makes me laugh. Vintage and Brownsville are rarely used in the same conversation. But keep coloring the blank canvas.

Longsuffering anon,
DeleteLest you continue to wallow in self-pity, may I inform you that Brownsville has only a border wall, but no wall to the north or west? It is gratifying to know that my words give you some small semblance of amusement while you live in a self-imposed prison that, not only does not meet your needs, but pisses you off.
Of course, ignore the above if my suspicions are correct and you do not actually live here. Even locals that get out only once monthly to refill their meds know that the Charlie Clark Datsun dealership has located here. Actually, Charlie needs more energy guys to patrol the lots to intercept those who want to just look and then go out the exit.
Jim
I'm still laughing. And, Lord knows, I rarely suffer. As I noted earlier, keep coloring that blank canvas. It's all you've got. As for Brownsville's walls, they're all over the place, from its lack of brains to its lack of vision and progress. Walls, sir, apparently envelope you beyond your ability to recognize them. Good day.

Redundant anon,
DeleteYes, I'm walled in by my own limitations, mortality and life choices. But, I'm fine geographically, not living in a city I loathe and disrespect. That would be a prison sentence.
It's your life. But why stay in hell if you're free to leave?
Jim
wow.. is that J J 's car?
ReplyDeleteJim, consider this when tempted to respond to an anonymous poster who loves to engage in mental masturbation.
ReplyDelete"Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience."
Aw, a troll out to spread somebody else's wisdom. Wow! Why not impress us with a reading from the Book of Crap? You seem to have memorized it. Try being original. You are allowed.
DeleteAnon
I don't mind responding as long as no mental energy is involved. If the anons get too clever, develop a wit too sharp or burdensome, I may bow out. But with frivolous fluff, I'm in my element.
DeleteJim
Looks like the De Lorean! What a shame to have lost that piece of history
