Common courtesy can still go along way in defining oneself, but, "no good deed goes unpunished" (according to my wife LOL).

Must be a generational thing. I'd guess he's probably 23-24 but a bit on the immature end of the spectrum. Still living in mommy's basement. For the most part he's a good guy. I just know at his age I would have been pretty grateful for the help. Of course at 22 I was married, a full time student, and working 40+ hrs per week.

I just read through this thread the other night, but I was on my xbox so I didn't reply. I'll add to the list (keeping it to cars), and concur with allot already here:
Legit. As in "...yeah man, that car was legit, I want one" So it is legitimately what? a car, cool, ugly? (my 20 year old uses this, I want to slap him when he says it)
Built. "It has a whatever 350 and Built 350 trans." I should hope is is built, wouldn't want a car with a partial transmission in the car.
Murdered out? really?
MPG's - Miles Per Gallons. Prevalent on the car commercials.
NOS, saying it as it looks, as a tern for Nitrous Oxide. Drives me bat sh*t.
True Dual Exhaust: Is it lying? False? Just because if it isn't dual exhaust, it is single exhaust, or dual outlet muffler, or a variation thereof. I just never liked that statement.
Since I am getting older, this is all I can remember thinking of the other day.

I'm with you on most of these too. In fact, I'd never even heard the "true dual" thing until I joined here. Seems pretty prevalent though. The only one I'd give exception to would be MPGs just because it's just soooo common -- like RPMs.liquidh8 said:I just read through this thread the other night, but I was on my xbox so I didn't reply.

Cammed out, I didn't start hearing that till recently
I hear ya there driven. I just don't says RPMs or MPGs, i know better, so, it stands out to me. Like my 18 yr old daughter saying "ooohhh mmmyyy god!" in the most annoying voice possible!
Ahaahaaa!!!!! Damn Straight!
I think the "True Dual Exhaust" evolved from "Dual Exit Tailpipes"... I remember a lot of stuff and people in the 80's using the terms Dual Exhaust and Dual Tailpipes interchangably... mainly because of the 3rd Gen F Body and the G Body being cursed with a stock set-up that isn't favorable for a real dual exhaust system... for anyone who thinks the dual hump crossmember is a PITA, the only way to hang a dual exhaust comfortably under a 3rd Gen is to notch the floorpans on the driver's side... otherwise it'll get smacked hard on anything that is a blip above an ant hill.
