His response was that Maseratis when compared to other "upscale" brands are a bargain and that opens the door to more posers and wannabes and just more people in general.
Unfortunately society has degraded continually and continously for quite some time now so I'm not surprised that the greater the numbers (of people) the greater the odds for less civility.
AND WE NEED MORE CIVILITY AND EVEN CHIVALRY AROUND THE GLOBE!
Just a theory.

Fortunately as Jag owners, we don't fit neatly into a hierarchy of automotive exclusivity. We fit better into a categorization by level of sanity. (what...you bought a Jag?...wtf)

I'm not so sure of that jaguny. No offense (to Maserati owners) but I was just in Fort Lauderdale, FL and saw an overwhelming number of Maseratis (Maserati?). So much so and so much more than other "upscale" brand that I asked my pilot friend "why so many?"

We have our moments in this forum. People certainly got bent out of shape when I was asking how they were driving their car as brand ambassadors, in regards to that Audi commercial where I think it's a Porsche that splashes some people at a bus stop. But that's neither here nor there, because this is easily one of the most interesting forums of any type I've ever been on. The people here are so fun and enthusiastic and witty.
As for as for Facebook, that's steaming pile of rotten garbage is such a waste of time. I know my friends and family, and I don't need their opinion about anything. people often forget the oldest social network is email, listserv, and forums like this. There are sites like Reddit that are topical enough to find meaningful answers for things in any category, but most of the content of the internet is still popping up on forums like this. So I shall exist here with all you nuts. Cheers to strumpetting.

I've tinted the windows and then blacked out the chrome front to back including nose, hood vents, side vents, leaper, and window surrounds. Plus designed some hood and side stripes.
I'd like to increase the HP just a tad on my R only because I like not having "stock". Snorkel change? Exhaust change? Just don't want to mess with the warranty police.

I think of it more as an appreciation for the male form than misterogeny.
Just like I was assuming from the male standpoint in here it was an appreciation of the female form and not misogyny.
Besides, nothing wrong with strumpets of either the male or female type in my mind! The world would probably be a better place if there were more strumpets!

My wife is Sicilian, and whenever I come across any of her family from the old world, it is generally agreed the only people that drive Maseratis are pimps. They have a wonderfully bad reputation, in the country of origination.

I kind of want to go look for the thread you are talking about now! Drama that I'm not a part of can be entertaining! FB I pretty much only use for specific closed groups I'm a part of and to keep up with my costuming friends and that kind of thing - I pretty much ignore most everything else because of the rampant rudeness and idiocy. I do enjoy some of the subs on reddit, but I have missed forums like this.
So are we now all strumpets by virtue of being here? I mean, I could live with that.

So far it looks like maybe Castelguidone, Chieti, Abruzzi, Italy - but I've honestly just started looking into that branch of the family because I never met any of them and from what I've been told they "Americanized" our last name when they came here and I knew that would make it harder. But it's also possible that someone put that instead of the one you mention - I've already found 3 different spellings for the last name in various census reports, and that's just once they were here. As I find out more though, I'll let you know if you're interested.

These days everyone is taking everything too seriously. What happened to the days of everyone just relaxing and enjoying life. I guess the problems arose when a few,maybe more than a few, a** holes went overboard with their attitudes toward women and others just to try to prove their own superiority. Opps, forgot, I will jump off my soap box and let this thread get back where it should be, Sorry about that. I guess the 2nd cup of coffee just kicked in and the morning editorial page of the paper also opened up.

[QUOTE=jaguny;1901447]bah! Old country I assume, and likely Mt Etna? Not sure. It's small and I can't figure out how to make larger. =) But cheers to you good human. Hopefully they don't do a Brexit. Italy has been talking about it. Eek.
