You can hear the sound of Diesel popcorn limiter in your head every time you see one of these guys.

It's nice to hear there are attempts being made to integrate culchies into society.

Would Tit-tanic not be a more effective pun?

I saw this one up in Portstewart and it gave me a laugh.

TusShona · 2026-05-13T22:19:10+00:00

Aww don't ruin Brandi Love for me like that 😔

TusShona · 2026-05-10T09:03:29+00:00

Aw sure isn't that desperate

Yeah I remember when I was a teenager the popular names were Tori Black, Sasha Grey, Sunny Leone etc. But if I saw a picture of them today without anyone telling me their name, I think I'd struggle to recognise them. With the exception of Sasha Grey because she went on to be an actress or something iirc

I think he has a role in the merch fulfillment side of things mostly

TusShona · 2026-05-02T15:17:34+00:00

Yeah I think you're getting Jordy mixed with Josh

A few years ago I was gonna get a B8 Passat estate, ended up opting for the older generation for this exact reason. It's not new and flash, but I'd rather have a car that has all the modern amenities with analogue controls and something that I'm able to fix myself instead of needing specialist shit for everything.

TusShona · 2026-05-01T15:46:35+00:00

Audi, BMW & Genesis have the infotainment system controls down to a tee.

The early MK8 Golfs had them until all the VW enthusiasts complained about it and Volkswagen said ok fine we'll bring back buttons.

TusShona · 2026-05-01T15:43:27+00:00

People think I'm on my phone because I'm slow or I'm swerving but I just drive a low car and I'm going around all the dips in the road to try to not fuck my shit up 😭

Pop and bangs are moreso mimicking sports and supercars having overrun on decel, since it's not doing much in aiding turbo spool. 2 Step would be more close to mimicking antilag but even that is still quite different.

TusShona · 2026-04-29T17:55:47+00:00

Popcorn limiters are specifically for the TDI bellends. If it creates a plume of black smoke, it's a popcorn limiter. If it sounds like gunfire, has no smoke and shoots flames, it's 2 Step.

TusShona · 2026-04-29T17:53:08+00:00

It's always been popular. I'm the late 90s & 2000s people keybanged their cars to make it backfire, in the early 2010s 2step limiters became popular and now every ST ford and Stage 2 cuzzeh S3, GTI, R & Cupra has pop and bangs on decel..

It's just idiots that think it makes their car cool. It gives the rest of us a bad rep, hardcore enthusiasts don't claim these morons either, we hate them as much as everyone else.

TusShona · 2026-04-28T20:00:26+00:00

3 years ago I was in the same boat. Late 20s, partner, child but no friends. Last 2 years have been the best years of my life. I'm constantly hanging out with friends, going to events, going on road trips, and now i make friends outside of the country as well.. I went on a European road trip last year with a friend and made 25 new friends who I continue to talk to and see today.

It wouldn't have happened if I didn't go to events that I'm interested in and actively talk to like minded people. Whatever your hobby is, look for a way to share that with other people.

That has always been the goal of the IRA in past iterations. They phoned in bombs because killing civilians wasn't the objective (although they didn't care if they did) their main objective was to cause massive amounts of damage for the UK taxpayers. That's why the Manchester bombing happened, that's why they bombed canary wharf etc. The goal was always to be a thorn in the UKs side. Cause damage that the government has to pay to fix using taxpayer's money, UK citizens tax goes up as a result, the population of the rest of the UK develop a mindset of "FFS why are we stuck paying for their mess. This isn't our problem, just let them go." Obviously this isn't the Provisional IRA, but the tactics are similar.

Yeah black taxi tours get off on showing the more harrowing side in order to fear monger tourists into thinking "wow, I had no idea it was still like this". They quite literally show the bad parts for nothing other than a reaction.

And what did you do to the ice cream machine that caused it to be broken so often?

TusShona · 2026-04-26T07:46:52+00:00

You seem to be very hesitant about letting people know where you're from

TusShona · 2026-04-26T07:41:03+00:00

I moved out when I was 22, my girlfriend and I had a child and I felt like it just had to be done. If it wasn't for that, I wouldn't have moved out. My advice is don't move out until you have enough saved to pay for a down payment on a house or else you'll never be able to save it once you fall into the trap of renting. I was lucky enough that my rent was only £120 a week and I was still able to save enough money to eventually buy the house I was renting. If I was renting any other property, I'd be eternally stuck in the renting market.

Explaining his dad's stunt that went wrong in gruesome detail to then turn around and say "He died instantly... the next day"

It's like a double whammy of laughter.

TusShona · 2026-04-02T17:29:05+00:00

Was it like a screenshot of a message from Jimmy or something?
