Sarcasm font won't work. Some people still won't get it. 90% of communication is lost when you don't see someone face to face. If you're joking on a message board, you need to make it painfully obvious.

You're joking.............right? scratch

Unfourtunatly he is not. seen it to many times, you can joke all you want but there are a few that will take it literally even though its made obvious. sad to say but those are the ones needed to be banned, there are sites for them and places they need to be, but not here. i do joke a lot and have pissed quite a few off. Unfourtunatly some people just do not understand the jest, and it causes problems. Just a fact of life I guess, Some never learn if you cannot laugh at yourself, then you should be shot...

Geeeez.... Be careful around here affraid

Honestly, I run into all types when I'm selling at shows. 99.99% of VW folks are great. VW represents open mindedness, functionality over style, frugality, simplicity, honesty, etc, etc... And the people who are drawn to the VW generally reflect the same loving and honest attitude toward things as well as people.

Then up walks Mr know it all, who has the only way to fix whatever and he has to broadcast it to prove everyone else on the planet is wrong. I love the looks on the others at my tables as I patiently listen and smile.

None of us are better than anyone else. Just older, and maybe made a bunch more mistakes.

I couldn't tell ya how many times i've put the cylinders and heads on, only to find a circlip lying on the table. then had to take the whole damn thing apart to pu the little fugger back on. then realizing when i put all that back on, i forgot to put the cylinder head shim back on, lol. It sucks when you've rebuilt 1 motor three times in one hour Laughing
