A while ago I found the words "f**k You" engraved on the rear quarter of my car.

Not sure if it was little kids or some gutless wonder with a chip up his arse.

Luckily that side of the car was getting sprayed for some minor damage already.

A while ago I found the words "f**k You" engraved on the rear quarter of my car.

Not sure if it was little kids or some gutless wonder with a chip up his arse.

some people are odd.

Theres a family of deevo's (deviants) that live up the street somewhere.. and they may not have even reached puberty, but I'm pretty adament that they're capable of causing damage to not only public/private property, but also to others who "stand in their way". (except me.. coz I'm massive. :happy: )

I reckon we could see this family in a future episode of A Current Affair. Fortunately they only cause a ruckus around their side of the tracks and havent wondered about the corner to discover new turf to literally feed off. If they do, the garage will be fought for between my old man and I, until one of us can be bothered to clean out the other half of it.

Now I know it's not their fault that they're like the way they are, well maybe it is, but unfortuantely some of the parents don't care either.. so they're not the best role models. And it isn't just happening just here up my street, but is always something thats gonna be around.

I see scum junkies at the city interchange and I imagine to myself that 10 odd years ago they had a family who may have had a bright outlook on life.. but the kid/family took a turn for the worst and now they're off the rails..

But getting back to the orignal topic.. yeah.. I hate when people scratch cars. :glare:

Good to see that I am not the only pretentious person about. My Mrs and some of my mates think I should lighten up, but everything posted here just shows that I am not crazy!!

My latest gripe is with hero/arrogant drivers. The ones who do 120 in a 100 zone, then drop to 80 as soon as there is a hint of a hill or curve. I went to the coast on the weekend and was slowed down so much by these sort of people.

Of course when there was a safe opportunity to overtake I did without any fuss; but these people really cheese me off when they try and keep up in a straight line and quickly dissapear once I have gone through a couple of corners.

I can really understand (but not condone) why some people do stupid stuff in these situations just to get past these heros.

i hate people who get in the right lane and sit at the same speed as the person in the left.

i had some tool do it to me on the monaro near rose cottage, today around 5.30pm. was going towards calwell up the hill as it hits 100 and a guy in a ute was right behind someone in the left lane, i was coming up fast and the ute suddenly went into the right and sat there next to the other car, there was no one infront of him and he couldve over taken but he just sat there. he then went back behind the car after 2 mins, wtf? what a c**t, does it just to piss me off. i stared him down good :)

AMEN to both. They are my pet hates.

I get the same thing for being sinical because people like us know the truths of the world instead of living in denial about the world being a happy place and everyone should get a long. IT WONT EVER HAPPEN!!

And thats my rant finished.

I've spent this entire day so far fixing up this f**king guideline document that this retard wrote, our publishers have sent it back from production because it's absolutely riddled with formatting errors and inconsistencies. The guy that wrote it is supposedly some brilliant fire engineer that is worth his weight in gold, hence why they pay him 100 grand a year.

So anyway he writes this thing up, gets leg humped by all the other halfwits for doing such a good job. It goes through a "full QA", which involves going through all 5 managers here, the deputy general manager, and a committee of about 20 people for checking. Then it goes to the publishers for print who actually looked at the thing and saw how horrible it actually is. They even did the good thing and sent it back even though they didn't have to and told us what they picked up was wrong.

Guess who's got to fix this thing?

Not him.

He doesn't know how. He wrote the whole document and yet can't fix the style guide that he supposedly made for it (and assf**ked I might add).

He can't even get the page numbering right. Or the consistency between the left and right pages.

Page 5 typically comes after page 4, not page 3. Page 4 seems to have been on leave in this document. Page 22 must have been in a meeting. There are chapter names in the headings that are actually the chapter names from, oh, about 50 pages ago.

I seriously cannot wait to be an EL2. I'll get paid 100k a year to have an IQ of 300. I say 300 because most of them seem to have 300psi of compressed air in their head. And nothing else. It also seems to be rather warm air too. There certainly isn't any fuel in the mixture. I'm not even going to waste my time to check if there's spark.

No offence to anyone on here that might be a government EL2, I'm sure there are those that deserve to be doing that well. But these guys here sometimes really blow me away with how braindead they can be.

End whinge.

You know what really grinds my gears?

People in woolies/coles that think because they have a basket it entitles them to use the "express checkout" No it doesnt, i remembwe the day of the 8 item or less checkout, nice and fast, great if your just popping in to get milk and bread etc. BUT NOT ANYMORE, people have gone too far once again, the fact that your entire weeks groceries may happen to fit in a basket does not entitle you to the express checkout! use the aisle with grandma and her shopping trolley, people who just want one or two things have to wait, and wait and wait for these people to pull out there whole goddam weeks crap in the EXPRESS aisle... its not express when you have 30+ goddam things TARDS!!!!

/RANT

My EL2 is hot.. I perve on her all day. I think it's the whole power thing. I wouldn't mind working directly below her. *high 5!* (scrubs)

I hate missing out on sleep.

I hate having to do a bog in a public toilet.

How's that for relevance???

I'm picky about my public toilet craps. I'd walk up to the 7th floor of our building to get a nice cubicle with no one in it.

I usually head to David Jones toilet's when I'm in Woden. Splendid! If you watch the sales assistants as you head towards the toilets, you can see them glaring at you, coz they know what you're here for.. OHH YEAH!

You know what really grinds my gears?

Protein shakes. No matter how much "research" they put into it, they still manage to taste like poo.

Soo much toilet talk here!

    • Did this end up working? Did you take some pictures?
    • And finally, the front lower mount. It was doubly weird. Firstly, the lower mount is held in with a bracket that has 3 bolts (it also acts as the steering lock stop), and then a nut on the shock lower mount itself. So, remove the 3x 14mm head bolts , then the 17mm nut that holds the shock in. From there, you can't actually remove the shock from the lower mount bolt (took me a while to work that out....) Sadly I don't have a pic of the other side, but the swaybar mounts to the same bolt that holds the shock in. You need to push that swaybar mount/bolt back so the shock can be pulled out past the lower control arm.  In this pic you can see the bolt partly pushed back, but it had to go further than that to release the shock. Once the shock is out, putting the new one in is "reverse of disassembly". Put the top of the shock through at least one hole and put a nut on loosely to hold it in place. Put the lower end in place and push the swaybar mount / shock bolt back in place, then loosely attach the other 2 top nuts. Bolt the bracket back in place with the 14mm head bolts and finally put the nut onto the lower bolt. Done....you have new suspension on your v37!
    • And now to the front.  No pics of the 3 nuts holding the front struts on, they are easy to spot. Undo 2 and leave the closest one on loosely. Underneath we have to deal with the wiring again, but this time its worse because the plug is behind the guard liner. You'll have to decide how much of the guard liner to remove, I undid the lower liner's top, inside and lower clips, but didn't pull it full off the guard. Same issue undoing the plug as at the rear, you need to firmly push the release clip from below while equally firmly gripping the plug body and pulling it out of  the socket. I used my fancy electrical disconnect pliers to get in there There is also one clip for the wiring, unlike at the rear I could not get behind it so just had to lever it up and out.....not in great condition to re-use in future.
    • Onto the rear lower shock mount. It's worth starting with a decent degrease to remove 10+ years of road grime, and perhaps also spray a penetrating oil on the shock lower nut. Don't forget to include the shock wiring and plug in the clean.... Deal with the wiring first; you need to release 2 clips where the wiring goes into the bracket (use long nose pliers behind the bracket to compress the clip so you can reuse it), and the rubber mount slides out, then release the plug.  I found it very hard to unplug, from underneath you can compress the tab with a screwdriver or similar, and gently but firmly pull the plug out of the socket (regular pliers may help but don't put too much pressure on the plastic. The lower mount is straightforward, 17mm nut and you can pull the shock out. As I wasn't putting a standard shock back in, I gave the car side wiring socket a generous gob of dialectric grease to keep crap out in the future. Putting the new shock in is straightforward, feed it into at least 1 of the bolt holes at the top and reach around to put a nut on it to hold it up. Then put on the other 2 top nuts loosely and put the shock onto the lower mounting bolt (you may need to lift the hub a little if the new shock is shorter). Tighten the lower nut and 3 upper nuts and you are done. In my case the BC Racing shocks came assembled for the fronts, but the rears needed to re-use the factory strut tops. For that you need spring compressors to take the pressure off the top nut (they are compressed enough when the spring can move between the top and bottom spring seats. Then a 17mm ring spanner to undo the nut while using an 8mm open spanner to stop the shaft turning (or, if you are really lucky you might get it off with a rattle gun).
    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
