I had an older guy pull up next to me at a red light in a newer convertible Mustang... he was in left turn lane I was going strait.

He said.. hey nice car, how fast is it?

I said thanks, 1/4 mile or top end?

He said top seed.

I said 150.

He smiled and said as if I was sandbagging, I don't know... looks more like 160 to me.

Conversation I JUST had...

My neighbor's scraggly looking (not judging but his character/appearance is important later in the convo) boyfriend walks over as I'm finishing up drying off my S2k after giving her a bath.

Him: "Hey man, just had to get a closer look at your car. I really love my cars".
Me with a chuckle: "Go right a head".
Him: "Let's see if I've got this right.... 2008 Honda S2000, right".
Me: "It's a 2000 but close enough".
Him: "and it's a hard top convertible?". (I've got a Mugen rep hard top)
Me: "sure, I guess so".
Him: "I knew that by the shape of the top. It's a hard top convertible like my Corvette".
A little stunned by his "corvette" "Oh yeah? How's that?"
He goes on rambling about a combination of words that I have yet to comprehend about how it's easy to take the top off but on the s2k it's not and that's why he likes his vette more... idk...
Him: "It's a 2012 Corvette. Z06 with a Big Block Chevy. I'm afraid to drive it."
So I ask, "Where is this Corvette?"
Him: "Oh it's in Texas getting worked on. Putting a stingray body kit on it. I like the look of the stingray more than the regular corvette."
Me: "uhhhh. OK?"
blah blah blah later...
"An S2000 is the only Honda I would drive."
"Oh really? Why's that?"
"Well, a civic, accord, or S2000s. Those are the only Hondas I'd drive. They're just, like, the only good ones, ya know?"
I was done at this point.... "uhhh.... sure."
"Well thanks for letting me check out your ride. Was I right on the year though?"
Dude... I just told you.... "No, it's a 2000."
"oh, really? cool. I saw a 98 S2000 once... It was pretty nice". WTF???

Saw an older gentleman whipping some dust off his Mint MG at a local home depot, so I rolled up and said nice car. After some talking about it he looks at my LBP

him" I test drove one of these"

me "isn't it a blast to drive" (or something like that)

him " oh yes, but I ended up buying a miata instead"

end of conversation

^^ High horses. Do they need a medical marijuana prescription for that too?

Do horses get the munchies when they get high? Can horses even get high?
