I'm done with it.

JoeHawk 02-10-2011 07:06 PM

Uh... "down" that is...

seatownracer 02-10-2011 08:21 PM

I'm in

Creto 02-10-2011 08:50 PM

Might be in. At least for part of it, depending on when my soccer game is. Pity we're not doing BJ's in Lewisville (soccer is closer to that one).

Riley Craven 02-14-2011 11:56 AM

Bump! Is no one else planning on coming?! 3 people?

Creto 02-14-2011 01:26 PM

Alright, so I now know the game time (it's SATURDAY!), so I should be good, but just have to make sure that Linds didn't come up with other plans for us already, lol.


Anyone up for going to BJ's in Lewisville instead? hehe. I might even bring the shirt design with me.

KWarner04 02-14-2011 01:45 PM

I should be there. I'll see if I can talk my brother into coming too.

Riley Craven 02-14-2011 02:37 PM

deadphoenix52 02-14-2011 02:48 PM

to negotiate the surrender of the 350z club

lta_ds_fs7 02-14-2011 02:50 PM

Ignore deadphoenix52 :P

As to the purpose of this meet and any other meets the DFW crew has, its to hang out and enjoy each others company. We arent like the other Mazda or car groups around, we aren't "rice" and we aren't big show boats. We are honestly friends with each other and like our company. You are more than welcome to join us if you like.

lta_ds_fs7 02-14-2011 02:54 PM

Yeah definitely...I've been thinking about looking into a group since I joined this site actually...I guess it all fell into place.

the above post is so unbelievably riddled with grammatical errors.

but hes right.

we arent really a car club, but just good friends who happen to drive the same car.

lta_ds_fs7 02-14-2011 03:08 PM

Sounds good to me

Riley Craven 02-14-2011 03:59 PM

I wish they had a signature dish on the menu called a BJ. That way you could order one... the waiter/waitress would also be require to say "How's your BJ?" midway through the meal.

Maybe he's using it out of context? Or another definition of the word?

He keeps using that word. I don't think it means what he thinks it means.
:dunno:

Well given that you're disputing how I am using the word friend and not what I said around it I offer this rebutal:

Define the term friend:

Friend -

1. A person with whom one is allied in a struggle or cause; a comrade.
2. One who supports, sympathizes with, or patronizes a group, cause, or movement

Based on the attendance of this group it can be argued that we are Friends in that we all support each other's interest in the RX8 and also share other common interests as well. It's also a given that it is highly unlikely that anyone that did not enjoy or value the comradery of this particular group that they would continue attendance or communication.

Counter Argument to my own arguments

1. A person whom one knows, likes, and trusts.

While the above may be true it could also be said that not everyone likes or trusts everyone equally in the group. That of course can be expected given the complexity of friendship and the ever increasing amount of people you add to a group. Obviously the cut off is different depending on the person.

I personally will count this group of people among my "friends".

Creto 02-15-2011 12:41 PM

A better definition for you Thomas...


Definition of joke:

* a humorous anecdote or remark intended to provoke laughter; "he told a very funny joke"; "he knows a million gags"; "thanks for the laugh"; "he laughed unpleasantly at his own jest"; "even a schoolboy's jape is supposed to have some ascertainable point"
* jest: activity characterized by good humor
* tell a joke; speak humorously; "He often jokes even when he appears serious"
* antic: a ludicrous or grotesque act done for fun and amusement
* act in a funny or teasing way
* a triviality not to be taken seriously; "I regarded his campaign for mayor as a joke"

Who, me?! *makes innocent face* I would never do such a thing!

P.S. Isn't it "Ya'll"?

Lord ET 02-15-2011 01:51 PM

Lord ET +1, no more 'I think'

lta_ds_fs7 02-15-2011 02:30 PM

Am I the 'new guy' you're referring to?...lol

And yes you would! *snicker*

The possibility is there.... :)

lta_ds_fs7 02-15-2011 03:01 PM

Well, the reason I ask is due to the name that was given...Maybe I didn't mention I'm not a guy...lol...Just throwing that out there.

Riley Craven 02-15-2011 03:04 PM

lol well in this case "new guy" was refering to "new person" it was a gender neutral term used in this context :)

lta_ds_fs7 02-15-2011 03:08 PM

I know...I was kidding...It's just that there's always the assumption that I'm a guy when I post anything...I guess it works out better that way though...Being a woman makes me inferior in the forum for some reason.

Creto 02-15-2011 03:10 PM

It's safer to assume everyone is a guy that you haven't met yet, lol.

Well this is a particularly large and diverse board, that may be the case in other areas (though which I'm not sure) but is not the case around here. Skill and knowledge are what we value. Most of the leg humper crew is on the general discussion side of the board. This crew is mainly mid to late 20's with a few exceptions on either side. One question for you since you are posting in this thread, are you planning on coming to the meet?

JoeHawk 02-15-2011 03:55 PM

Some of us exceptions are futher down the exception side than others.... Agewise, anyway. Maturity/Fun level.. well, we are all about the same age.

lta_ds_fs7 02-15-2011 04:01 PM

Yeah sure...I don't see any harm in going to meet new people.

Riley Craven 02-15-2011 04:11 PM

Cool, generally speaking we try to park as far back in the lot as possible so we can park together. Will try to hang out by the cars first so we are easy to find and send someone in to get a table (most likely myself)

lta_ds_fs7 02-15-2011 04:15 PM

Ok great...I'll just look for all of the 8s then...Hopefully I don't go up to some random person who just happens to be in an RX8...lol

We did that one time at Bone Daddy's. Guy didn't even want to talk to us.

Lord ET 02-15-2011 05:15 PM

yeah, then B-Plum. revv'ed up the miata to show how manly he was. bahaha ree-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee

I'd suggest keeping that bit of information closely guarded. Not because people will think less of you, but because you'll get all sorts of creepers coming out of the wood work trying to hit on you.

From an entertainment standpoint, I think it's hilarious! But I'm sure it's quite a pain for you.

Anyways, welcome to the club and we'll see you on Friday.

And it's a really bad song if you're trying to drive anywhere near the speed limit.
