dude there was an article about all these people buying hundreds of dollars worth of cigarettes before the midnight deadline when the tax was going to be hiked up.

cigs are gross, if your going to smoke something, make it something worth it!

Well what I meant by "never", is that I'm never gonna get that lucky again.

$5.83?! whoa, you guys are getting f00ked. I don't even smoke Cigs but it's crazy how every time the state or feds needs money, they just add even MORE taxes to cigs.

No it makes sense. The Feds are all about being the moral police, which has cost the public serious tax money and increased spending tremendously over the years. Increasing "vice taxes" leave only a small subset of people carrying the burden of the cost to enforce the morals of the government and the people who screwed it up in the first place...the religious idiots.

Also anyone who complains can be told to STFU and stop drinking/smoking/whorin because they are looked down upon by society. They do not increase taxes on alcohol for fear that the general public lashes back and realizes...WTF are they doing being the moral police??

Prohibition was the prime example of the backlash and the realization that the general public must be kept *kinda* happy and not realize what is going on so they continue to leverage control over the mass.

It's retarded, but makes perfect sense.

For those who been around Glendale and Burbank in socal you would know the people around here showing of their leased cars. The people who live here are mosly Armenian. They drive high end BMW's, Mercedes, Lexus, Range Rover's ect,. They always want to race and show off and try to act all cool.

Point of this post was last night about 1am I was going home after i was at my friends house. I was going down the street to go home. I pull up to a red light and wait, then a few seconds later a black M3 pulls up next to me and rev's. I then look over and see 2 ppl (guy's) looking at my car (rx8). The light turns green and i go normally up to speed then come up to another red light and make a right turn on to the freeway entrance to go home. I look in my review mirror and see a pair of headlights going sideways and then strighten up and getting closer. Next thing i know its the M3 again following me in the next lane i guess wanting to race... i just stay my course and keep at the same speed of 70. The M3 is still next to me for the next 2 mins untill he speeds away going upwards of about 120. A few mins later when i get off the freeway that Black M3 is pulled over by CHP. I roll down my window and and see whats going on. The two guy's in the M3 look up and see me and i just smile and drive away.

It just pisses me off when i just want to get home everyone wants to race me. It happens all the time.

Any stories of people wantin to race?
