That is still all over the web in multiple memes and forums. The Stangnet wipeout had little affect on it.Amazingly if you search, you can still find this gem from 2004. How I wish the Stangnet crash never wiped out that thread.

Yeah, but I had a thread on stangnet that was live as it blew up. It went from “hey this was funny” to “holythe emails won’t stop coming in”
I got an email from supposedly ron jeremy’s agent offering a signed photo. I didn’t take it
I can’t make out what this guy is trying to say..,(something about an Escort)dad shipped his 250K escort to europe to vacation fora yr, base camp Brit. Drove it all over the continent that yr'n sold it (in Italy?) w/350K B4 headin back. Every twn he went thru he said they chased the car-to-park. When it did he was repeatedly asked to sell it.
It's text speak, it's the new thing. You are going to have to learn to read it if you want to live comfortably in this World for a few more years.I can’t make out what this guy is trying to say..,(something about an Escort)
Maybe if he’d use Full sentences it’d make more sense. But as it is currently written, it’s just abbreviated nonsensical bull sht.
Trust me…I can read it. It’s not text speak. The guys almost 70. it’s fckin lazy. He expects the reader to figure out what he can’t be bothered to write.It's text speak, it's the new thing. You are going to have to learn to read it if you want to live comfortably in this World for a few more years.

His sentence structure is as good as your math. 350k-250k is 100k. Please don't PM me that I am hurting your feelings. I'm just busting your balls.Gibberish to English translation:
Engaged:
My father had taken a vacation to Europe in the past. He shipped a Ford Escort to ride around in while he was there for some reason. The car had 250,000+ miles on it when he sent it. He sold the car in Italy after adding another 150,000 miles to it during his trip.
People would approach my father and attempt to purchase the car. This happened in several towns throughout Europe.

What gave you the idea that I had feelings? I generally hate you all equally.His sentence structure is as good as your math. 350k-250k is 100k. Please don't PM me that I am hurting your feelings. I'm just busting your balls.

He's just ahead of his time. I have been at this computer piss drunk before typing out perfectly articulate sentences. I honestly have no idea why people write like that these days. Go pull a thread from 15 years ago on Stangnet, and you didn't see this type of writing. I have friends that are mods on other forums, and they don't even allow it; instant delete. Forums are a global thing; we just had a member from Sweden asking how to do an intake swap. When English is your second language, being forced to navigate through a run on sentence like that is 10 times harder.Trust me…I can read it. It’s not text speak. The guys almost 70. it’s fckin lazy.
When you are in the military, they ship your car for you. Lots of friends I know brought there cars to Europe when they were stationed there. I had a friend ship a car with a 3 digit value over there. Cars are cheaper in the US. And you do realize that in Europe, they have the steering wheel on the same side of the car as we do right? The only places that have the steering wheel on the wrong side are Countries with no land boundaries to other Countries.Question:
Why would somebody ship an Escort to Europe to ride around in?
Europe has plenty ofty cars already.
...and the damned steering wheel is on the wrong side of the car.
I think Dad went on vacation so, no military shipping. And it was the Brits I was thinking of.When you are in the military, they ship your car for you.

Ok so, yeah I think that is a better translation. Shipping a car to Europe is pretty cheap. My dad shipped his Mercedes there about a decade ago for about $600. It's registering a car in Europe that costs a fortune. My dad drove his Mercedes in Norway for 4 years with a Florida tag on it.I think Dad went on vacation so, no military shipping.

I would have turned it down. If Ron Jeremy signed it, then he probably touched it, which means the photo could have gonorrhea.
Seriously, emails though about that??
