Consideration of what?Originally posted by sticksdaman
It's a generic, stupid term for shoddy crap. There's no underlying racial overtones.
Would "african-american engineered" have pleased you better?

Dude, it was a joke. If you are of a pigmentally enhanced persuasion and I offended you, I apologize. Otherwise, seriously, it's a joke.Originally posted by sticksdaman

First of all that last post is b.s. Don't go backing up someones comment with an even worse one. I would venture to say Charlie was kidding, aaron on the other hand..... that is a shitty way to take focus off the subject at hand, which is budget beater's total lack of tuning capabilities.
So back on topic, how much do you estimate you've spent? Do you have a 4.10 lsd yet?Yours truly,

To avoid further racial tensions when referring to any method used by "Budget Beater" to modify his car.. might I suggest a common term used by myself and many friends to critisize the quality of one's work while avoiding the same racial overtones in public.
"Johnny"
(ie. "That's the biggest pile of Johnny fuck I've ever seen!" or "What Johnny rigged that piece of shit turbo kit up?")
It's great because it can refer to anyone of any ethnic orgin and not feel racially charged AND it's alot more versatile when you really want to let someone know they did a shitty job.Comment

but what about all the poor S.O.B.'s named johnny? lets just stick with "jerry-rigged", all the people named jerry must have a thick skin about that now.: : 1984 318i : : PNW E30 Crew : : Sold!!

The phrase is actually supposed to be "jury rigged", jerry is a bastardization of that. So unless there is anyone called Jury....Originally posted by chuckybob
