do you even know which way is up?
While both V8 engines are normally aspirated, there is a difference between good German engineering and poor German engineering where it were made over 50% larger for a miserable 8.7% more power. Even at its original 510bhp, it is still only 23% more power.
DON”T PATRONIZE THE PEOPLE! Your IQ is not high enough.
Even if you truly didn’t know your dad was in on the purchase of your telecom like you said you didn’t, he would have had known you were selling it, alright!!!

I have had my eBay account for several years and I have never made any buy or sell transactions whatsoever. Not even a single bitting or listing of any kind. I can’t even remember my account name or password for that matter. This message, legit or not, is the very reason why I’d never trade on eBay and the likes. But I suppose my mere in-activeness could be classified as “seller non-performance”.
until it stops hurting. That’s what it feels like talking to dad.
A conversation with dad as he was trying to find a song or an album that contains the country oldie and had me typing out a song list that he collected by consolidating his Karaoke selection from different Karaoke discs….
Dad: Can you buy the song XYZ which you had searched and found through iTunes?
Me: Not unless we have a foreign credit card but even then, it plays on computers fine but there’s no guarantee that it would work with all MP3 players or CD players.
Dad: Forget it then, I’ll just find it at HMV.
Me: But we could still search which album exactly that contains the song so we HMV could place an order for it.
Dad: No, it’ll be in HMV.
Me: If you don’t know the album or the artist’s name, HMV’s staff may not be able to find it.
Dad: Nah, HMV will have it; as long as I go over, even I could find it.
Me: How do you plan to search for a single song only by it’s name? And even if you did find it how do you know it is the version you wanted as it could be fast, slow, male vocal, female vocal or even just music only?
Dad: It wouldn’t matter, I know how to sing the song anyway..
Me: (While typing the list) Hey isn’t this the song? You already have it!
Dad: Yeah but that’s just a Karaoke.
Me: So?
Dad: I don’t know how it’s sung.
Hauh?!
This is just one of many similar daily conversations with dad.
In response to the government’s plan to increase the deduction amount of drivers’ points for those who run red lights in order to reduce traffic accidents, LEGCO member Chan Wai Yip have reserves to the plan explaining that any rules that potentially affect professional drivers should be considered much more carefully.
Hey, simply DON’T run any red lights and no amount of penalty would affect anyone. I’d say let’s increase the cash penalty to HKD$10,000 for each offend as well to really slam down on reckless drivers, professional or otherwise.
When one views “Chinese” DVD-9 discs, one gets “bouns“.
Sometimes colorful artistic digital squares. Sometimes automatic digital freeze frames. Sometimes 2 Mandarin audio tracks when 1 Cantonese and 1 Mandarin audio track were clearly printed on the cover. Sometimes subtitles that has absolutely nothing to do with the movie on the disc whatsoever. But more appropriately, when one is really lucky, one also gets the “extra” clips that come as bonus with the original legit disc which are listed as “bouns” on the disc menu.
That’s what we get when we borrow those discs.
WhaUSay?!
