    Hey everyone, I'm Tom. I've had a black 2010 WRX for a few years now, and it's been pretty damn awesome. Been to a bunch of rally america events, done some road rallys, a few small meetups, and still get that goofy grin when I walk away from my car.

    She's my first Subaru, so I'm still a relative nooby. I'm the kind of guy that would rather get his hands dirty and do it myself, so hit me up if anyone wants/needs an extra set of hands when wrenching. I figure the only way I'll ever learn anything is if I do it myself. I'm usually good for some beer drinking and a sarcastic comment at the very least.;)

    Who'd have thought they've got better judgment than we do?

    I guess we all have our off days.

    OP, welcome aboard. I think I've seen your car around GV a few times.

    No, but I can certainly shape it within my sphere of influence.

    Care to test that theory?

    Yeah, I agree. I was starting to think you guys were trying to encourage a MySpace vibe with all this teen angst and profile pic roulette going on...

    Considering that you've been failing to catch the hints that have been dropping your way, we can always move to something less subtle.

    I hear you are pretty good at catching. You should start a forum for power-bottoms.
    mnpowerbottoms.com seems available.

    Apologies.

    Shouldn't have worded it so it made me ****tier than I already am.

    Yes, I do take your guys' advice into hand, but I'm not the type of person that will apply it immetiately. I have to build up the stability in order to function the way you guys want me to.

    Another explanation is, I'm a teenage boy, we aren't the smartest bunch, nor the most mature bunch, but that's how most of us act.

    I know, and I understand you guys ****ing hate me. But I'm trying my hardest to be more mature, but it's a little hard as a younger kid among you adults. It makes me feel nervous.

    Sorry for all the **** I've been doing.

    Damn, I'm impressed. That was the smartest, most heartfelt thing I've seen you post yet.

    Throttle back just a little bit and you'll do fine.

    Burn me on this and I'll personally see that you get to take a vacation from the site.

    No pressure. :)
