Stuff that really pisses me off

You know what I really can't stand? Yes, I'm about to tell you. People who discredit you based on the fact that:

A. You like 1.6 liter engines because you find them to be very effecient works of engineering. Why tote around extra metal with a V8? Just to prove that your engine is bigger than everyone elses? News flash. Your entire car is just bigger, that doesn't make it better, just more expensive if you consider expense an attribute of a cars practicality as it applies to your situation and not as a flamboyant show of exorbitance.
B. That you are one of those "ricers." On behalf of everyone from the legitimate world of import sports sedans, I would like to apologize for everyone with a body kit on a rusted paint job or I/H/E on a non-vtec D series that leaks/burns oil. And no, just because I have 15" integra alloys and a set of header does not mean I want to race your dodge neon, save the ego for the track.
C. When you consult other peoples opinions because you obviously don't know everything and you have a post count in the 50's, that you are completely incompetent. To summate:

Me: I get more pride out of something I did myself...
BlackDeuceCoupe: And that would be?

Well... since you asked:
Clutch
Turned flywheel
Rear main seal
O2 with lengthened wires to fit on headers
Distributor
Plugs/Wires
CV's
2 Rotors
1 Caliper
Heater hose
Sway link bushings
Tie rod ends
Lower ball joints
Power steering boots
Alternator
Battery
Fuel filter [which I have a scar from]
Loose plug connection on dashlight brightness controller

And I haven't even gotten to the suspension, body work, or engine yet. So I'd appreciate it if people would not act like I don't know what the I'm doing. Thanks.

Anything I haven't touched on?
