Hi

Now that my husband has told you all that I think the piccies look like a line-up of Hyundai Coupes (Oops! Sorry. Must not be derogatory about the beloved RX8), and one of your number (Harrizone) has suggested that I must be immediatley divorced, I have realised that there may be others like me - sad, dejected partners of individuals who have found a new love. Even though the delivery date seems to slip like an eel on ice!

Would it be possible, dear administrators if others, who feel that they have been cast aside could have a forum to discuss their options when considering the way forward when this wonderful embodiment of all that a car should be ever arrives on the driveway?

I have to admit that I appreciate that the RX8 has evolved in a rather beautiful manner retaining all that the Hyundai Coupe had to offer in terms of curvature, style and performance. (Guess who has a HC?). But can your members take the possibility that their partners may, themselves, look elsewhere to compensate for their loss.

no

 

A man of many words.

 

Thanks for joining in - from all us blokes, here are a few words of male wisdom:

1. If you think you might be fat, you are. Don't ask us. We refuse to answer. Just get your **** down to a gym.

2. Learn to work the toilet seat: if it's up, just put the bloody thing down. We need it up, you need it down. You don't hear us moaning about you leaving it down.

3. Don't cut your hair. Ever. It causes unnecessary arguments when we dare to comment on it. Long hair is always more attractive than short hair. One of the big reasons men fear getting married is that married women always cut their hair.

4. Birthdays, valentines, and anniversaries are not quests to see if we can find the perfect present... Again.

5. Sometimes, we're not thinking about you. Live with it.

6. Saturday = sport. It's like the full moon or the changing of the tides, let it be.

7. Shopping is not a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.

8. Anything you wear is fine. Really!!!

9. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!

10. Face it; peeing standing up is more difficult than peeing from point blank range. We're bound to miss sometimes.

 

Hello Pillman

Thank you for your warm (verging on hot) welcome.

I am not fat. I am fast (in my Hyundai Coupe), also a size 10 (American 8).
I know how to work the toilet seat - I clean it!
My hair is extremely short - I have my own image and I do not have to ask a man for approval.
Perfect presents... how could you possibly find them when you are striving to find the perfect car?
Why would I possibly assume that your are continualy thinking about me ......get a life!
Saturday = sport. OK, I agree.
Shopping does not equal a sport. I agree. I do most of mine on line and have done for many years.
Anything I wear is none of your dammed business 'cause I wear what I feel good in.
I don't ask for what I want, 'cause I buy what I want (with my own earnings) - including my own car.
Face it - no. Try the opposite. Just sit down if you want. Who said you had to stand when you pee?
And when we go back to the beginning, what has this to do with the RX8 and what the hell is 'male wisdom'?

Hugs and kisses

Hew

Only one correction to Pillman's pearls of wisdom: "Don't cut your hair. Ever. It causes unnecessary arguments when we dare to comment on it. Long hair is always more attractive than short hair."

This is true unless she cuts her hair, in which case, now that you mention it, short hair does look better.

HEW had you swallowing (pillman ) for a while , hew sounds like shes on a mission , short hair , shops on line take no prisoners type of woman , heck she would probably beat most of the forum members to an arm wrestle , this lady has (***** ) ment in a nice sort of way , she must be a rx8 liberalist .,with red hair .

michael

 

Dark blonde hair actually!

 

hmmmm a la natural blonde (dark ) not peroxide , very interesting , why i say that is here on the gold coast a lot of the ladys are peroxide blondes with silican **** , a lot of them think of themselves as models , but unfortunately for them they are LAST YEARS MODELS .

 

Hew, life would be boring if we just had lads on this forum, so its nice to get some female viewpoints.

I have tried recently in persuading my wife to consider a HC as yours (in blue?) but she still wants an Audi TT. Cannot really see why the TT has a hold her. I prefer her to get the HC so do you have any thoughts on the TT?

Lock&Load

My intention was to focus on the RX8, not to take this to where it seems to be going.
I suggest that you guys focus on your RX8s not my personal appearance.

 

AnilS

Say sorry to your wife. I was considering the TT to replace my HC until my other half decided on the RX8. Now I just have to go for The Vauxhall. Once I've had a shot of the RX8 of course.

Hew

 

Have you brithish , no sense of humour ???you already seem to be on the defensive ,( you guys ) etc personall appearance no one has asked to see what you look like , you mentioned short hair and dark blonde , all on your lonesome .

Anyhow have a nice day ,sorry for being male .

 

I have never joined a 'forum' of any kind. I spend far too much time on this foum and generally discussing my soon to be RX8 with my wife who thinks I am really sad and said tonight "god I can't wait till you get that dam car...maybe you will shut-up about it..!"

 

Hey, us British? Because one lady had a go at you? Thats the trouble with you Australians, you all generalise all the time.
:D

 

Not a sexist question Hew but ...
how do you find when you reverse your RX8.... see... when you pushing down the gear stick?

Some similarity in the bedroom??? DDD

 

Why are all the aussies causing trouble? Are they just determined to reinforce stereotypes as simple men's men, who like drinking beer, abusing women (and other animals) and playing sports. Aha! that's it - they're in a bad mood 'cos they lost.

 

Hew, I don't think I should say sorry to my wife! Its obvious that your partner has similar thoughts on cars to me. He prefers the RX8 over the TT. Sounds like he's made a better choice in picking his cars than you have.

...Hew, I think you're best off with your friends at the other site....

 

I agree with one of you! And I'm back on the other site with a serious point.

Thanks for my supporters, but I have more respect for myself than to visit this site again. If people can't take a joke without getting sexist, that is something they have to deal with.
I have a life.

See you where it matters.

Hew
