    How many "Beemers" do you correct?

    Lately I have been getting swarmed by people unknowingly refering to BMW automobiles as "beamers."

    Normally I try to politely correct them, but lately I've just been brushing it off

    Do you guys run into a lot of people doing this also?

          also ignore it. I don't even think it matters.

          as long as they spell it with a "B" and an "M", i don't care.

          Bam, bimmer, beamer, boomer (russians), bimmerMW (i call it that), and so forth.

          I only get upset when people call e30s, sentras and when people if the car is manual or 5-speed. lol

            I ignore it, cuz if I correct it every single time, I would have no time to jerk off or breathe.

                Not that I care, of course.

                      I work at a dealership, and when someone asks where "beamer service" is, I just let them know we dont service motorcycles, but they can take their car that-a-way. Kinda sad when even the techs call them Beamers.

                        Man, life must suck when you look down on people for something so insignificant. I feel small even responding to your post.

                          Someone who is too lazy to say BMW usually gets none of my attention.
