some ones gona slay me for this but, its only human nature in this day and age to laugh at others misfortune, having just been in a car crash with five others where two are still in hospital i laughed when i saw your car. so what somebody laughed at you get over it your alive so's your mate.

the girl driving the car were in is getting ripped into at uni but shes not crying about it.

and people can only judge you one what you show them, so if he judges you on here as what you are on here, why dont you go and prove him wrongotherwise dont complain about it.

Yes, but it's totally different.

I could have been trying to portray sarcasm throughout this topic, and no-one would be any the wiser, whereas in reallife, you CAN judge someones tru character. To be honest, I'm not too fussed that someone on the internet calls me arrogant, that wasn't my point, I was just saying, as you should agree, that the prospect of the death of two human beings is in some way funny...

<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">

The point is you aren't dead. If you were dead this topic wouldn't have been posted and if it had been nobody would be laughing. I appreciate that having a car accident can be quite difficult to cope with mentally and talking about it and getting other people to share their experiences can help you 'get over it'. However, you know the nature of this forum (particularly the sandbox) and you should know that this isn't the place for serious conversation.

Dearest Ben,

I am so awfully sorry that you had such a dreadful accident and endangered both yours and your friends life.

Lots of Love, Fantastic Mr Fox

Only reason I loled and defended the other loller is there were no details of the crash in this thread and I did not know there was another. If i read details too and saw how this responce would have gone, I would have avoided. Getting a bit stupid now so i'm willing to huggle it off mate.

I never asked for concern - people kept going on about how they wanted pics, and now I have them. I asked for no sympathy, nor do I want any, I would just expect people to act with a CERTAIN (small) amount of sensitivity, considering that it was them that wanted the pictures...

As for your second point, immaturity is funny, but to en extent. Hell, I bet you like it sometimes, yet you ban people for being too immature....

Well seeing as i didn't have an opinion on you before, I'm not too bothered. As said before if it was a topic saying "i had a crash with my best mate...etc" it would have been difrent. However, it was a topic with a before and after picture and someone saying lol.

Make of it what you will. Me and Ben have explored view points on the merge of forums and real life and come to a good agreement. I'm happy with the end result.

That was some good arguing chief.

Ben, that looks nasty. Havn't written a car off YET (touches wood) not that wood. Just had a wee run in with a fence post in the snow. Result - cracked bumper.

Dave, deer jumped clean over my car the other night. I shat my pants.

Think when it got picked up as shown in the pic the roof creased or something, although there was a lot of damage - bonnet, drivers side front wing, door, rear wing, front bumper, new seat/airbag needed, rear bumper got damaged somehow too. Engine still started and ran fine though.
