Default Got a thumbs down from a Solara

So I'm with my g/f going home though town. I notice this new Solara next to me with dark tinted windows and some dork with his hat backwards driving. I didn't think much of it since I was having a conversation with my g/f and I didn't feel like racing anyone. So then, I see the front of his car lift up and then it starts to creep away from me. He then he rolls down his window, sticks his hand out, gives me a thumbs down, and turns off.

I asked my g/f if she thought he was racing me or something, and she laughed. What the heck was that kid thinking? I'll have to find him again and show him what it looks like when he races me.

Nice uhhh whatever.. Chalk it up to another snobby PennStater whose mommy bought him a new *** mobile. He was probably trying to say: I love that Camaro, but this car (thumbs down)

Hey what's this I see in the Manual tranny section? You having problems with that car already!??!

I guess I'd be a dick too if I had to drive a car as feminine as a solara.

Lmao, I don't know why I've never thought of the term "fagmobile" before, but it sure is great. I'm gonna have to rip that off and start using it, my apologies in advance.

Jon,
No apologies necessary. You have my full and unwaivering permission to utilize that term to its fullest extent.
Hell, I stole it off a buddy of mine from Allentown area. It must be a PA thing. We used that term quite frequently.

Being that you are from the Allentown area, I could see why you'd need to use it often
