Things I just dont get these days!

[jamesslcx]

The trend in burgers these day is to ad egg? Mac and cheese? Ham? Yuck! Another thing is full body tattoos, what is the purpose? Tiny beds on full size trucks? Lowrider jeans, come on! Idont get any of this, I could list a lot more{ like I see people mowing in the rain and the results dont look good}, maybe I'm getting too old to understand, I don't know!:confused2:

I think things are just getting more silly as the days go on.

What happened to simple things that worked!?

And I know simple things work, because I'm a living example! :thumbsup:

I tend to like everything you just mentioned (the truck bed being the exception, unless it's a stepside) - maybe I'm just too young to understand why you don't understand.........:laughing:

What I don't get about burger joins is why they do not offer whole wheat buns.:confused2: In Canada there are burger places called Harveys and they are the only places that offer whole wheat buns:thumbsup: that I know of. I guess if you want to eat healthy you probably should go to the burger joins in the first place.:wink::laughing:

I pretty much agree.

All kids today a spoiled brats thinking they deserve cell phones and cars provided by their parents. They graduate with degrees in english lit and don't understand why they don't automatically get a job as and executive.

But, the small bed on truck thing goes back to the 4 doors on trucks thing............. other countries have had those for 20 years longer than us.

I love the functionality of my Ridgeline. I can haul 4 people, full sheets of sheetrock laying completely flat in the bed, and be comfortable enough and get good enough gas mileage for my white collar 8 mile commute every day while keeping my golf clubs in the trunk. BUT, when I need a truck load of mulch or dirt I borrow the father-in-law's beater long bed......... I just couldn't afford to keep gas in something like that every day. What kills me is how everyone claims it is not a real truck...... yet they drive a full size pickup every day and never haul anything. I guess I just don't need a "real" pickup. :laughing:

My GMC has a full 8 foot cargo area with the second row seats folded and I have had 4 F 150 trucks with the 8 foot bed. Have never understood why anybody would buy a short box truck when they want to haul things. I load my truck up all the time.

About tattoos....MORONS, spending money to deface their body. To me they are just weird, period. About burgers...fast food places seem to feel the need to introduce "newness" to their menu all the time. If people want to spend their money on a McEggwichWhopperSub good for them, the companies that spend all their $$$ on tv commercials need the money.

Ahh, my requirement for hauling has always been a few sheets of sheet-rock and my motorcycles without a trailer.

A long-bed is just not necessary every day for that.

I don't know how many of you have seen the Ford Explorer SportTrac, but here are my reasons for getting it (short bed and all).
4 doors - back seat (mostly for our daughter - Jazz the Chocolate Lab)
Independant Suspension (our road is washboard most of the time)
V-8 -- for towing and PA mountains
4WD - 4Wauto (AWD), 4W High, & 4W Low - I do wish I could run in RWD only.
Pick up bed - so the trash (stinky garbage) isn't inside an SUV when it is HOT out.
I got a hitch extender so you can haul 8' lumber etc. with the gate down.
It fits in the garage with room to walk behind and in front.
This was the only 4WD truck I could find that met all those wants.

While this thread is about what can't be understood these days .......
How can anyone call RAP music ??????
Why does anyone want to walk around with stupid underwear showing and no belt ?
Why would someone with hair want to look like they just rolled out of bed or stuck their finger in a light socket ??? Some people do that on purpose ???
How things that have been WRONG for centuries are suddenly OK ????
Why some people NEED a cell phone in their ear constantly (even while driving) ??
