The Supermarket Trolley

May 21, 2008

The supermarket trolley has always been a joke for those riceboys with tall GT-Wings. But have you seen the real deal supermarket trolley that made the guys from Jackass proud?

And, oh yes, it comes with Rurouni Kenshin stickers? Why? Because it’s mandatory for a riceboy to be a battousai!

Facts:
Suzuki Karimun, B 8872 GT, somewhere in Jakarta.

PS: Maybe that GT on the license plate stands for Gigantic Trolley? Who knows?

Double is So Yesterday

May 21, 2008

We’ve all probably seen that a riceboy can’t have too many wings. A single wing, double decker wings… They’re just a blast from the past. Right now, why not try… The Triple Decker!

Facts:
Mercedes Benz V-Class, D 71 R, Taman Anggrek Mall parking area.

Do You Have an (ugly) Honda?

May 14, 2008

No, I don’t. And frankly speaking, right now I’m glad I don’t have one. Not to discredit any Honda owners here, I believe that Honda is as good as any Japanese cars as well. So why am I happy of not owning a Honda? I have seven, yes, seven reasons for you:

Some dude thought that it is best to install a soil plougher on a Honda and not a tractor.

Some people thought that it is best to have warp drives on Hondas. Not that they need warp drives, but you know, just so that they look… Hip.

Another dude thinks that his car is black. And that it needed that extra wing for extra downforce. Yeah, like it’s fast…

As for this guy, okay, kudos for the white paint. But seriously, it’s a freaking Honda. Not a Benz. And with a car that low, why don’t you use no tires at all instead? It’s pointless having a set of tires that scrapes off your fender ALL THE TIME.

This, people, is what you call “The Little Dragon”. This is a perfect example of what an Asian-owned Honda should look like.

And as for the crown jewel, the grape/orange ice cream. And, look! He’s a member of that so-called Loser auto community. Loser? Indeed. Does he even realize that by using a bigger rim on the rear of an FF car won’t do anything to its grip?

Sonic Team, the Attempt of Sad Ass Ricers

May 11, 2008

The American/Japanese version. Cool, fast, and popular.

The retarded Japanese version. Not so cool, not that fast, and not that popular. Sad.

The pirated Korean version. Even slower. Even sadder.

Facts:
Honda Civic, F 11 TQ, somewhere in Bandung. (Jonky Jambul)
KIA Visto, B 8009 GX, somewhere in Jakarta. (apalah) 

Idiot Ricer

May 11, 2008

We always say that ricers are idiots, but we never really get to see a ricer that looks idiot and at the same time, acting as an idiot as well. This is what we mean:

First of all, it has that idiot marble paint. No questions there. Second, he parked in front of a maybe-it’s-not-big-enough-for-ricers NO PARKING SIGN. And even if that sign is not where it should be, it’s not a parking spot anyway. And if you think this is the only idiotic thing he’s been doing, no, it’s not.

If you’ve been to Plaza Senayan, you’ll know that this particular spot is a one way street… THE OPPOSITE WAY. And oh, it has a 5-hole PCD with, of course, a Benz rim. Maybe the rims are even more expensive than the bloody POS.

Our conclusion: Ricers can’t read. Perhaps they didn’t even pass pre-school. For comparison, even my dog knows where to pee when you tell him.

Facts:
Timor, B 8737 T, Plaza Senayan parking area.
