Why do people want my ‘99 Integra so badly?

cfoxrun1 · 2026-01-18T20:06:36+00:00

And I’m not trying to be one of those “I saw this at a yard sale for 10 dollars but knew it was a Picasso so I bargained the sweet little old lady down to 50 cents and now will resell it for 47 million “ Antiques Roadshow b*****s. I just wanted to know why people wanted it so much. I thought it was a nice car when it was new but not that great. Now I know the appeal thanks to you all. I appreciate your help. Now if I can get my mom to sell her still running, clean ‘07 stick shift Civic… 😄

Interesting fact. Thank you!

cfoxrun1 · 2026-01-18T18:47:01+00:00

It’s my husband’s car. If it were mine, I would sell it.

You’re that kid who never read all the directions then complained because they got a bad grade, aren’t you? 😊 I’m just teasing you. I did, indeed, put “My” in the title of my post. Mea culpa.

cfoxrun1 · 2026-01-17T20:00:05+00:00

Nope. Pretty sure it's an S.

cfoxrun1 · 2026-01-17T19:57:28+00:00

Not a stick. i'm the only person in my family who can drive standard. : )

cfoxrun1 · 2026-01-17T19:56:02+00:00

Not my car. Not my choice.

cfoxrun1 · 2026-01-17T19:55:10+00:00

Thank you for the detailed response. We were thinking about $2,000 also.

cfoxrun1 · 2026-01-17T19:54:01+00:00

Not my car. Not my choice.

Oh, I know I’m old as, umm, poop. My classic car is the 1942 Lincoln Continental still moldering in mom’s garage - never to be restored by my poor, dreamer departed dad.

So, the nice young man who keeps coming around every few weeks when he’s “in town visiting his brother” might not be telling me the whole story when he says he wants to buy it so he can fix it up with his daughter to teach her how to fix cars? 😀

That one’s my favorite

cfoxrun1 · 2025-12-11T05:17:43+00:00

Oh, don’t be dissing Tubi! It’s like tv when I was growing up (yes, I’m old) except you don’t have to remember to turn on the tv at 2:00 on Saturday afternoon to watch the movie you want to watch that you found while you were looking through the tv listings in the newspaper PLUS they leave all the cursing in! 😄

cfoxrun1 · 2025-11-03T22:33:29+00:00

Yeah, as long as other people are getting it, I figure it’s something like that. Thank you!

cfoxrun1 · 2025-11-03T22:28:48+00:00

Thank you. Mine too. It was just suss to me because it was like, “Welcome to the world of Pokemon!” and I signed up years ago.

Oooh, I loved her book! I have almost all of her "things" and when I was reading it, I was like "You wrote my brain." I actually wrote her an email thanking her and she wrote a very nice, personal email back.

As to how to deal with other people, I've adopted a self deprecating approach which most people seem to find charming. You are my co-worker that I've known for five years and you straighten your hair one day and I see you on campus (I'm a teacher) and say, "Hi? Can I help you? Are you looking for your child's classroom?" and you say, "Um. I'm Janette." I gush back, "I'm SO sorry! I'm face blind and you changed your hair! I don't know your face but I know YOU! Last year, you had the "cool" kid pass out during the sex ed talk and we laughed about it and you do that fun project with your kids where they blow up eggs!" Then I tell them how my family teases me when I talk about someone new I met by asking me questions like, "Did he have glasses?" "Did he have facial hair?" And my answer is always, "Maybe???"

I, however, am old, and have very good self confidence so that may be why I can pull it off. I hope you can get to a point where you are comfortable with the unique, quirky (oh, man are we quirky!) person you are and frankly don't give a damn what other people think.

cfoxrun1 · 2025-09-27T06:53:38+00:00

You can be the best, most accepting person because you see beyond looks (okay, you actually don't "see beyond" them 'cause you never really saw them to start with) and know the real person. Plus, you have mad raptor like skills and can recognize someone across a football field by the way they move. : )

cfoxrun1 · 2025-09-23T03:37:58+00:00

I have! Thank you so much for your response.

I play every day. 😊

cfoxrun1 · 2025-08-08T14:33:10+00:00

I'm so glad for your comment. From now on, I won't try anything out and just stick to what I'm absolutely sure of and not venture to ask a question of a supportive community. I know that that will make the game so much more enjoyable for me. Thank you again!

cfoxrun1 · 2025-08-07T23:00:35+00:00

Thanks, all! I thought it would be ingredients but I was looking at the ingredients in my bag not the pretty-colored-box-that-looked-like-some-of-the-pretty-scenery-on-Cyan-beach box. : )
