Granted, I don’t get out and about in traffic much, but I have not yet found an exception to this. Has anyone ever met a beemer owner who was *not* a pretentious asshole you yearned to smack in the chops? —Good dog miffed

Are you a hipster?
People have hobbies. Cars are a hobby ; why is that owning and taking pride in a car a step or three above the normal daily automatically means someone is an asshole? I know lots of decent people with nicer than average cars. Some BMWs; THEY like their cars. They are particular over them. They enjoy them. Just like whatever you do to pass the time OP. Post up what that is OP, I’m sure we can shoehorn you into a sterotype as well.
not only beemers molly, but those stupid little hybrids too. southpark did an episode on them. it was a major smug alert that almost destroyed the u.s.
i would say ‘read my lips’ umma, but it’s print.
i clearly stated that every beemer driver i have ever met ( MET, not seen passing on the road or dreamed of) has been an asshole. thats not a stereotype – its my experience.
i don’t see a beemer and automatically think ‘asshole’ because i am not a person who can recognize cars, except beetles and jaguars. hell, i can’t even recognize my own car model.
so, i guess you have answered the question posted – YOU have met non-asshole beemer drivers.
if one of them is a shaved head guy who has a gold one and hikes at mt uniacke – you are mistaken, he really is an asshole.
I know him and he’s quite a cool dude.
I know him too. He once climbed a tree to save an old lady’s cat and I also saw him rescue a toddler who had swam out too far at the beach. Also, I hear on weekends he volunteers at the soup kitchen/children’s hospital and is currently working on finding a cure for cancer.
I served with him in the falklands
I saw a pic of him on the internet posed with a triceratops he had just shot. and they are endangered!!! so he is really an asshole. damn hunters.
GDM; Not gonna read your lips, your post clearly stated what you meant. The answer is that may shock you YES its quite possible to meet a BMW driver thats Not an asshole . Sorry about your past experiences
The bike only works if you peddle forward. How clever is that shit.
anyone jumping in with a ‘peddle my ass’ comment? it would be churlish of me to give in to temptation.
I can only reply with a quote from Bill the Cat
Thbbft!
