Quite simple, if you don't like it, don't click it. I don't like cigarettes, so I don't smoke them. I don't like Barbie's, so I don't buy them. I like conversations with diverse views, debates, etc, so I engage in them. Comprende?

Close whatever you want! A lot of people come here for entertainment mixed with tech. ......The tech can be found many places, and if the moderators want to curb the entertainment fine. Take my membership off cause I'm not returning....have a good (dry) forum showing everyone how to reset their service lights, etc. And BlackYaris if you think the mods to your car aren't rice, you've burnt too much greymatter.

I still like my post in the other thread... sums it up best for me...

"More contemporary use of the term rice burner, along with the prefix "rice", has taken on an alternate pejorative meaning for an automobile that has been modified to give impression of high performance, but does not necessarily have any high-performance capabilities.

This practice is in direct contrast to the "stealth" or "sleeper" style of automotive modification, where a vehicle may have major performance modifications, but the appearance remains similar to that of a stock model.

In this manner, the appellation can apply to any vehicle regardless of country of origin. The most commonly modified cars are sport compacts, but the term can apply to any class of vehicle, including trucks."

whoever coined the term "rice" is an idiot. rice is delicious and i'll eat it with fried chicken and beans. but no mayo lol.

..rice is good with a fried Telapia or Popeye crispy chicken....
