OT: im the talk of the town....
90k people here... my friend was talking to some stranger and supposedly everyone knows about me but nobody knows me. they know me as the "white turbo hatch with the greddy sticker with a nice paint job"
just thought it was funny... people on my block are bragging about knowing me or something? haha...
whyd i post this? cuz i got nothing else to talk about...

Same thing happend to me the other day when I was leaving a chinese buffet with my Honda-tech shirt on. They already knew who I was and said, "are you the Art of Honda-tech?" I said "no, Im the art of turbo." 
We talked for like 30min outside. Kinda scary people know what I look like..

I run into people at least twice weekly whom I have no idea who they are, yet they can tell me the last time I trimmed my pubs. I've got to get off the internet....

Re: OT: im the talk of the town.... (CovertFI)
I keep hearing things about my new HB. But I keep hearing that its a red EG with a prelude motor and turbo and I run 10's. I have no idea where that came from though. People in NOVA are crazy.

Re: OT: im the talk of the town.... (On Point EK!!!!!!!!)
that's why I stopped going out. Everyone knew me as turbo type r and it got really annoying with all the questions. I am still trying to disappear.
