Why care what others think?
Texas is definately my kind of place! I will make sure I get there soon, I owe Big Tex a beer or two anyhow!
All due respect, you are a forum member I admire, but this is a cop out. You mean to tell me that if you're dating someone or friends with someone and they start condescending, patronizing or insulting you that you're just not going to care? Come on. Of course you'll care. Especially if you otherwise liked that person. Maybe you just won't talk to them anymore, but you won't just not care.
I was just goofing off. I see both sides, as sadly I do on most everything. A Ferrari IS just a car but using that simple a perspective, a woman is just a woman and we shouldnt care what they look like or their personality as long as they can breed , which is their purpose....on the most simplistic level. So thats how I would have responded to the person saying a ferrari is just a car.
Affect: Verb. To affect. "Listening to Trump speak tends to affect my ability to hold down food" Effect: Noun. An effect. "Blood flows below my belt line when Margot Robbie smiles, she tends to have that effect" Fun fact: The Shotgun's mom was an English teacher.
Additional Fun Fact: Teaching the differences between Affect and Effect CAN Effect a change in one's understanding and edumakashun.
Years ago I was at a Steve Harvey comedy show in Chicago. He was ridiculing the verdict and punishment for Michael Vick. He would shout incredulously “... but they’re JUST dogs!!”. I felt like shouting back “...and Vick’s just a semi-moron football player, why should I give a damn about what happens to him?”. You get something or you don’t. And after that show, Steve Harvey never got another dime from me.
One can make their Ferrari into anything they want but I can confirm that in the end it's (just) a car.
a) me neither b) obviously you're not a Patriots fan c) I think he's out of office, so you can let it go
Thank you very much...... I can’t wait to get there!, and my daughter at 2 has got the ‘USA USA USA’ rap down to a fine art! Ask her where she wants to go on holiday, she shouts ‘Vegas!’ And starts dancing around USA USA USA! It’s hilarious
I encounter many people that have zero interest in automobiles. I assume your reaction to her 'just a car' statement is based on the context of how/why she said it? For example, I'm not into handbags. To me, a Birkin bag is "just a bag," and spending 100K on a purse is a foreign concept to me. Of course, I would try to be as tactful and non-offensive if I do encounter a person with said interests and ownership of said bag, which make me assume she meant it as an intentional slight. If so, I would venture to conclude she would denigrate you in other ways as well. If you have a nice watch "it's just a watch." You have an original Picasso "it's just a painting" so forth... Tell us more about this person and the situation in which it was said?
As above.. a Louboutin is just a shoe. Leather, glue, staples and that cheap red paint on the bottom. (Why the **** did I spend so much buying my sweetie a pair? and she would have hit me if I even suggested a pair of Converse are equivalent..) OTOH. A woman is just a woman.. is just a woman right. We're all just people right? The fact that I'm ogling.. I'm sorry.. looking at.. that one there as she walks down the sidewalk in the skinny jeans and high heels... that means nothing right? and she's just a woman right? Same parts, same bits as any other right? So Absolutely no reason to get jealous right?
Nope. Other than helping some friends out here and there, its been about 15 years since Ive been in the FX biz. I miss the art but not the schedules or the pay.
