Default my brother in laws storys

I was round my mams yesterday for new years dinner and my brother in law was there. He is just full of shit. He was telling me that his suzuki bandit 1200 motor bike could do 0 to 60 in a second. Then he started arguing with me about mk1 lotus cortinas saying that you can get a 4 door shell on ebay for 1500 quid. He didnt belive me that ford didnt make a 4 door lotus cortina. Then he said the 2 door sells go on ebay for 1500 too. He is so full of magic its unreal.

Ive got an R1 and that won't do 0-60 in under 3 secs let alone 1, The best I have had is @ 3.45 secs. Must be a very special bandit.

See these people everywhere!!

The thing that gets me is they actually believe that shite, the really must not be right to argue about something they know naff all about, the thing that always gets me though is when i find myself argueing with them when i clearly know best, and i hate myself for it!! i sometimes feel as if people hear us and may think im talking the crap when its not!!

He is talking out of his poo shoot....everyone knows that a b12 will do 0-60 in 0.75sec And they never made Lotus Cortina's in either 2 or 4 doors varients....they were all estate's and soft tops

I hate these sort of people - meet them all the time at work They are the type of people who would argue that water isn't wet, and grass isn't green.

Best ploy i've found is just nod and agree with whatever they say, then see how annoyed they become because no-one will argue with them.

maybe the 0-60 thing in 1 second is because when hes on the bike and lets rip he says

"one....

err, thats it i know no more"

therefore, as the thick cunt cant count up to 2, its gotta be 1 second no?
