Here you can talk about the joy owning a Volvo 480 brings. Non-technical discussions take place here, like what is the difference between an ES and a S version.

Picture the scene
Deep in the swamp the retards where stirring something was jarring their brain cell into awareness, as the banjo chords twanged into the distance an insane tapping like a rabid woodpecker on speed fired out its staccatto rhythm. WTF (yeah they think in single syllables) who dat dim ? Reaching for their shotguns to mow the critter down . What was it???
Dang nab it it was that weegie Glasgowjim lowered the suspension on 480 turbo and forgot to secure one of the rear shock absorbers at the bottom was bouncing up and down like a coney on speed an viagra.
The 'tard fixed it now the bayou echoes with the sound of banjos , creaking rocker chairs and the grunts of mammies calling their children home eyes shaded by their jutting brow ridges.
Damn I am dumb and this buckfast is powerful stuff

You should work for a newsdpaper or something. Bring bad news like that and its still entertaining.
