Some people want to be friendly, but they really should just keep their mouth shut.
I Am So Offended!!!
That's a phrase that I dont think I have every used before. I dont get offended. Even when people mean to give offence I dont take it. And I certainly dont find offence when its not intended. TODAY THAT CHANGED! I took my kids to a little kids fishing day down at a local pond and had a nice time and afterwards was loading up the FJ when some dude walked by and said...
"I like your van."
i was stunned... i said "What?"
surely my ears had decieved me...
he said... "I like your van."
i was in shell shock... i watched in disbelief as he walked away and got into his Honda Accord.
I have never been so offended in my life...

Oh, I don't think any harm was meant. Considering the source, he probably was too dumbfounded figuring out what the FJ is, and in his world, if it isn't a car, it's a 'van'. Just laugh it off... Like someone saying that's a good hamburger to a nice steak dinner -- they just don't know better.
So, you're going to put one of those sliding doors on the sides?
You shoulda told him you liked is go-cart.
I feel a group buy coming on.So, you're going to put one of those sliding doors on the sides?
My guess is he was slamming you intentionally. He knows it's not a van....he also probably knows that calling a 4x4 SUV a "van" is intended to be an insult. He probably drives a Jeep or jacked up fullsize 4x4 too and since your taste doesn't match his own, you are beneath him. Least that's how I'd take it.
Ignore it....if it's the way I described or if he was genuinely sincere....he's a moron and that means his opinion is worthless.

Hey UsaidSO, dont encourage that kind of Mountain harassment...
Maybe he thought it was a Honda Pilot, it is a van underneath
:rofl: That's just not right.So are you changing your sn to MountainVAN now? I keed.
Sean
At least he didn't say he liked your @ss..
Hey MountainMan, I like your VAN too. :rofl:
Surely it had to be due to ignorance but you never know.
i would have beat his honda-driving liberal a$$ in front of his family until he spit out a tooth or two and admitted that it is, in fact, a truck.
I think its quite funny.
Very few and i mean VERY few things offend me.
