Horn Blowing = Lion's Roar?
You should never let the guard down in the jungle. But you should be
able to tell a threatening roar from a hesitant driver, though both can be deadly. Gotcha. Fear is the mind-killer. Keep killing that mind. |

Horn Blowing = Lion's Roar?
Or perhaps the bullying of a bull?
Lots of bull here. It scares me. |

Somewhere between a second and maybe two seconds means, "I'm here and I am annoyed at your heedlessness." Over two seconds it means, "I'm ****ed off at you, JERK!"

WELCOME TO THE JUNGLEhttp://webspawner.com/users/donquijote I've heard of people talking to themselves but not posting to themselves. You need to adjust your meds or something. You've made 2/3 (11 of 17) of all posts in this thread with multiple cases in which you respond to your own posts. Pretty unbelieveable. |

I call it the "boondocks syndrome," and it manifests by either being indifferent to the outside world, or making stupid comments about something that you don't care about. For example, WHAT DO YOU CARE ABOUT URBAN PLANNING IF YOU LIVE IN THE BOONDOCKS? FYI, I propose BIKE FACILITIES, and those are part of urban planning. |
