Wink Nodding Freak!

I am getting seriously p*ssed off with impreza drivers who keep nodding at me.

I went to get my car washed at the local russian outlet today. As I pulled up there was another scoob there and this bloke who looked like the churchill dog kept nodding at me, so I just ignored him in the hope that he would stop. Saw him again about 5 mins later and he's still nodding away like an epileptic chicken so I ignored him again, started to think he might have turretes or something.

Later on I ended up next to him in traffic, and I was almost too scared to look across - I think this guy is stalking me! Sure enough his head was nodding up and down like a *****'s drawers so at this point I got really scared and accelerated to about 70mph in a 30 zone (I was genuinely scared for my life), I caught a final glimpse of him in my rear view mirror as I was weaving through the traffic, and you guessed it - he was still nodding!

N*tter!!!!

I'm glad there are some normal impreza owners like me around to stop us all getting labelled as freaks. I was in my p reg silver sti badged to look like a wrx badged to look like an sti, he was in a white sti4 badged to look like an sti4.

Yes, funny that isn't it.
Anyway, I don't sit on the rear parcel shelf and I don't wear a collar.
So what do we all do then? Crawl up inside our own a£ses thinking that we are better than everyone else?

He stared at me. My mistake for thinking he was a fellow scooby driver, looks like he was the kind of guy to pick a fight with anyone who looked at him!
Either that or he fancied me!

oh f%ck the lot of ya!
This site is seriously going down hill!
You get encouraged to wave or nod, then, when you do you get labelled a freak!
Whilst I was at the car wash, I spoke to an mr2 turbo owner, and a new golf gti owner. Both car nutters like most of us on here, not afraid to have a chat with a complete stranger who happens to also love cars.
This is the problem with Britain at the moment, all up our own a$ses thinking that we are better than everyone else.

The funny thing about the thread to me was the way it was written at the end, didn't take it to seriously to be honest. But do agree with you on the "other scooby" drivers bit,so many times you either get blanked or they want to race you .Got to the point were i wave/nod once and thats it.

Its foolish to expect that all Impreza drivers will nod; acknowledge your nod or even know that Impreza drivers nod, in 2005. In 1995 maybe. when the Impreza was a well kept secret and they were over-priced and owned principally by car enthusiasts.

In 2005 they are hugely de-valued, over-supplied and worth next to nothing; every f*ckwit who wants to show off and has £3,000 can buy one; why would they nod, after all; people with Corsas and stupid stripes didnt nod to them before did they?

Why cant people grasp why it doesnt happen any more ffs?

Sorry mate, I didn't mean to offend. I'm just at work and was a bit bored to be honest.
I'm not anti-nodding, usually partake in a bit myself (http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/showthread.php?t=416670 for example), I just don't get worked up about it when you get blanked.

I think the point is some people, even fellow Subaru drivers, just don't get the whole thing - if you know what I mean?

Christ mate, chill out, this thread was completely obviously an attempt at humour, following on from the 10's of posts about the quad bike this morning

Talk about taking life (and yourself) too seriously...
