7/12 for 305 "yes, your a looser.............Joe" buttons.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

A pathetic 7/12 for 314 excuses such as these: my iPad glass needs recalibration and I have Fat Finger Syndrome (FFS) and quizzes like these are just a regurgitation of bourgeois factoids which have no relevance to a meaningful culturally fulfilled and spiritual existence. Something like that.

I duplicated Joe Guy's score and looser badges. My badge's clip is getting old, so it keeps falling off.

Did the looser moniker originate on the old "Car Talk" BBS, or was it Le Chat House? I know I saw it before Plan B. I can't remember who it was used on most, or when.

I'm pretty sure it was on the Car Talk "Cafe Dartre" boards. Bosco would know. :mrgreen:

At Cartalk, the name 'Bosco' is also what POPs into my mind...

Anyone recall PaddyO at CarTalk?

He would often mistake "Looser" for "Loser" and "your" for you're".

One of the late PaddyO's endearing qualities.

I vaguely remember PaddyO. Was his last name furniture?

8/12 and 352 center mounted brake lights from a pre-Christmas traffic jam.

Remember when cars didn't have center mounted brake lights? Then they did (at least Chrysler products.) Then they didn't. Then in 1986 they did again.

Remember when? Mine don't. Well, one has an aftermarket one. Of course none of my cars have airbags either.
