annoyingly contrary
I love the smell of rubber burning on asphalt, the sound of tires squealing, popping the bubbles from a well wrapped package, crickets chirping, and the sounds of tap dancing (I tapped when I was younger.)
It's nice to be able to buy a porsche. As a tuner, I would still have to fix the imperfections that the factory designs into them. Well, maybe not on a Carrera GT, but anything less would have to have get the treatment. It does annoy me when people mod their cars in ways that hurt performance due to stupidity.
On women and cleavage. If you are showing cleavage, expect looks - they go together. Dressed appropriately in a work environment and having someone stare at a part of your body is not acceptable. Had a boss that was a crotch starer. He also told me I looked good in periwinkle.
OK, done being contrary for the day.
On a side note, I lit my brake pads on fire the other day during some spirited driving. That is NOT a pleasant smell.

Wolf, looks are fines, stares are not.
mr_michael, if you're so concerned about our self-esteem, why not look us in the eye and show that you're really interested in what we're saying. We don't have much control over the size or shape of our breasts so staring at them doesn't do a heck of a lot for our esteem, but we do have much control over what we say and how we say it, and actually being listened to would give us a much greater boost than a leer.

To Ice,
As i wasnt here to defend myself earlier, i just thought i'd add the only reason i spend so much time staring at your breasts is because they're so nice!!
Plus, you generally come talk to me when im sitting down, and then expect me to crane my neck ALL the way up!! Honestly, so demanding these women!!

To continue this "gawking at women" discussion...
One of my pet peeves is this latest fashion trend of low-rise jeans. Sure, they show off your midriff and lower back, but they make your butt look flat! So there's all these women running around with no butts.
As far as staring is concerned, aren't men more "visual"? Women would be more inclined to read an erotic novel, but men would rather leaf through some porn or watch a video. Correct? So forgive me if I stare, it's just my nature. Actually, I tend to sneak a peek when I'm fairly sure nobody will see me, then look elsewhere.

sneaking a peek is different from staring. And its not a compliment to women. Just because its supposedly in your nature to stare, doesn't mean you have to do that. Humans control their impulses all the time, so I think staring can be controlled. Note: Looking and staring are two different things. And I don't think many people are offended by someone reading an erotic or romance novel, but most women are offended when a man has a conversation with their boobs.
And Martin, I don't think women are superior or better. We have our faults just as men do. I just don't understand why women are supposed to be responsible for controlling mens' impulses...I think men ought to take some responsibility themselves.
