i know..and the scary thing is..they even will pay for the taxes..usually when you win a car...you have to pay for the taxes!! thats insane...on top of all that..you can even get thecustomization for free.

i want to make a video... saying i used to drive a thunderbird supercoupe.. then a 240sx... and now a civic.

i want to send it to pimp my ride, monster garage, etc... and hope for pity... from an american beast to a small japanese sports car.. to a compact economy car... i was depressed but now i'm dealing with the fact that i drive a civic.

she didn't buy the cars you dopes... they were donated by Pontiac.

Rick, Oprah and other such powerful women didn't get there by giving isht away.... I'll bet you she'd still kill for a buck. It's just the kind of mentality successful ppl have (self made ppl), it's never enough.

it's kinda like when an obease person loses weight to a normal weight... no matter what, they're always gonna FEEL fat.... same with self made ppl, no matter how rich they get, they'll always feel poor. that's the difference between old money and new money.

Newlyweds (?) with Jessica Simpson and that guy... she went and bought panties and a bra, and it came out to $7xx.xx and when she left the store, she was like holly crap I can't afford that!!?! I was thinking to myself... she can't afford $700, that's weak!!

off topic but,

yeah, I saw one the other night, she pulls up to the house in her new mercedes, gets out, shows her hubby her new $1400 bed sheets! He was like WTF is wrong with the ones we have, she says she doesnt sleep well on them.....LOL! then she goes to wash them after opening them....doesnt know how to turn on the washer, and pours the soap all over them without reading the instructions...when the should have been hand wash...



man that show is something else!!! she seems to get more and more incompetent everytime I see it....
