Grrr People Who 'dont drive'

Just a few quick observations ive had over my past 6 years of driving.
Why is it that when your car door is slammed by one of your friends, the culprit is always the one that doesnt drive or own a car.
Why is it that when your getting out of your motor and you hear your front passenger seat come crashing down , the culprit is always the one that doesnt own or drive a car.
Why is it when your going places (a long drive) the people who own a car offer petrol, but to get petrol out of the non-driver is like trying to get blood from a stone.
Why is it when you go to MaccyDeez/BKing if theres sauce to be dropped or drink to be spilt, the culprit is always the one that doesnt own or drive a car.
Also ive noticed, these non-Drivers ALWAYS try to claim the front, i think its a deep down desire to feel like there actually driving the car themselves.
Anyone else feel the same? Or is it just the non-drivers i know ?

You could always solve the non driver/non car owner in the front seat problem using the shotgun rules. I will have to luck out for these problems when I start driving. I think I might have a plaque on the sills saying all car owners/drivers welcome, anyone not fitting the above description, please leave the vehicle.

Mm, I do know what you mean. There are a few things in particular that bug me... people who don't give any petrol money after I've been carting them about all day even if I actually ask / hint at how much it's costing me, people who slam my doors (always people whose parents own new cars and expect everything on mine to require thumping or slamming to get it to work..), and the worst thing is people who complain that my car is too old, too uncomfortable, too slow, too noisy or not big enough when they don't even run their own car..
The worst tend to be the people who have a brand new car bought and paid for by their parents.. they're just the ones who don't understand how expensive it is to do it all yourself..

Spoken like a King GroovyCarrot !
The ones that have had a car bought for them are always the ones that are quick to take the p***.
I remember working 6 weeks straight to get the money for my golf, 7 days a week and everything !!!
Rich kids have it easy, and the funny thing is most of em cant drive for toffee, which makes it even worse.
I just remembered another pet hate, non-drivers expect lifts everywhere, like if your at a mates house and the shop needs to be visited, they expect you to drive them, even if its 2 mins down the road !!!
oh and im sure everyone with a nice motor on this site, has 'friends' that only ring you when they want a free ride for the night.
Bar-Stewards !!!
and that goes for you women out there too !!
Just cos your drop dead gorgeous and well pissed, DOESNT mean im going to come and pick you up from a club and let you hang on my shoulder telling me how horny you are and how you havent had sex in months. . . . . .wtf
what the hell am i talking about!
RING ME RING ME !

lol thats about right, i got m8's like that....if i had your car i'd fit a massive spoiler to back and bla bla bla.
i sit there thinking if you had my car and did that to it i'd burn it out myself.

That last bit about the people who don't 'run' their own cars, really struck something there. The number of cars in the college car park that are probably owned by the students is very low. It tends to be the older cars that the students own outright. But you do get some real snobs. Best example is when someone said something to the effects of:
"I'm gutted that my first car isn't new..."
Well boo hoo, you probably aren't paying a bean in tax and insurance, and your having the car bought for you, so whats your problem. Try paying 1200 quid for insurance, buying a car, maintaining it yourself and running it.

haha metz, another true fact !
The ones that talk about modding there motor are the ones that never get anything done, i dont talk about what im going to do, i do it then discuss how it looks after
Nothing worse than someone whose been running their mouth for the past year and still hasnt got any mods done to their vehicle. . .THEN. . .wait for it

. . .they go and buy some stickers or a clip on exhaust
HAHAHAHAHHAHA
WHAT A MOD !!!!!

The best car in the world has GOT to be the token White "Air Fix" NOVA with a spoiler that looks like its designed to have a thrust engine big enough to take the little nova to space and back attached to the back of it.
You no its happened, you no its going to happen this weekend... the token nova driver with all of his 1.4 and 1.6 power and what only can be described as a back bean tin sticking out of the end of his car, oh sorry, I mean his exhorts will come up your arse, see the GTi logo and instantly try and race you thinking your going top end jsut befor you take it out of 3rd and into 4th and the little nova gets smaller and smaller in your rear-view
The only thing the token white nova needs is some rust and holes with a lad driving that looks like he’s just came out of a Burberry factory with (and don’t ask me how they do it) a fine ass bird that he treats like complete s**t and "loves" him because he’s so nice, even though he’s a complete cu*t to every person he meets.

their birds love em cos theyre sooo hard with all that gold and burbury on....the ones round my end are solid when theres a pack of em but the next day when u spot em coming out of post office with their giro money they look at the floor like theyre following a trail of breadcrumbs.
the chav mobiles round here look like the driver lost control went through a glue factory came out the other side then drove head on into a spoiler factory.
and if the exhaust aint as big as the wheels u must be gay or summat LOL

omg youve hit the nail on the head there !
All blokes know that this bloke is the biggest tosser that ever lived, but theres still fit ladies that jump on the 'bad boy' scene and get with them, although EVERYONE knows there a complete w**k.
Mind you, good for them, if there stupid enough to get with Captain Moron, 5 yrs down the line when theve put on weight and had his baby, sitting all alone in a flat wondering where he is, cos his out with his bit on the side, they'll realise they didnt make a wise choice, but alas it will be too late.
These ladies are JUST all about image, nothing more.
Sad if you ask me.

Its about image with the cars as well. The people who don't drive don't see cars as summit to get you from A to B, they see it as how rich you are or summit. I mean we all inject a bit of our personality into our cars, with wheels and stuff, but the stupid Novas, that are highly impracticle for the sake of image is stupid.

The nova driver is almost like special bread, they love the fact they own a car that looks s**t, sounds s**t and its generally falling apart and needs scraping. Also they are the easyest people to take the p*** out of as all they seem to be able to say is.
“Wot u lookin at ya twa….â€

*Puts hand up* Ummm i would hahaha !
Ive raced a Lambo Merc (fcuk know the spelling!)
the bloke cut me up upon exiting a roundabout so i proceeded to get milimeters from his car at all times

he was practically crying, and he even ignored me when we pulled up to the lights.
Now im a nice guy, honestly i am, but this bloke was a complete tosser, so i then proceeded to brew up a nice greenie and project it right in his view on his windscreen.
Moral ?Just because you have a car that worths 10 times what mine is DOESN'T mean you have the right to cut me up and then not say sorry.
Anywayz .. Death to all Nova's !
Ive always prided myself on never owning a nova and never wanting a Nova.
me old Trustee 1.3 golf toasted so many nova SR's it was unreal
you know its hard to coem across a Nova these days that ISNt kicking out some blue smoke LOL
Gotta Love it
