No, he's expressing his contempt for how an average guy who did a regular job gets elevated to the status of demigod due to bandwagoning idiots who can't change their own oil.

Welcome to basic competency, dasfinc, it sure doesn't feel as rewarding as it should huh? Now you know why I'm here, too.

Bingo.

I feel like I die a little inside when People ask me how hard it is....

Me- "Well, I used basic hand tools in my driveway.... Had to rent an engine hoist, and buy a few sockets, thats about it"

Them- "REALLY! Yo man, That sounds complicated!!!"




The flip side is you see a BILLION people claiming they have a billion HP, and run 11's with no pictures or timeslips. And I notice more and more, EVERY turbo setup I've EVER seen is home-made, Some more ghetto than others, but I've NEVER seen a Civic equipped with a full Greddy kit or any of that crap, and yet everyone and their brother seems to have one on Honda-Tech, but are asking ME what kind of ------- ECU they need, or what kind of Axles to use....

Then there are people like this:

That ask stupid questions about a simple swap over the course of MONTHS, and still haven't posted any relevant information, or if they have even PURCHASED a god damned motor yet

I see a lot of kits and high end builds. A lot of those guys don't come out, pop their hoods, or advertise because they are afraid to get their ---- jacked.

Valid point (not advertising because of theft)

I live about an hour and 15 min outside of Chicago, so that makes quite a bit of sense to keep hoods down, mouths shut.

Out in the boonies where I'm at people slap together all kinds of hap-hazard ----.
