SELLING THE A/C 2.5 FOR A....

[heliochrome85]

i really dont understand your motives to attack me. you don't know me, nor have we ever run into each other before. but hey, if it lets you fall asleep faster at night to have won an arguement on the internet, then you've won. Yes, i am a retard who went to university of phoenix online, and got a degree in data entry. I am destined for a life of telephone banking and customer service. I'm so glad that you took the time out of your day to remind me of my lowly status.

I have worked very hard to get where I am. I am proud of my achievements, and look forward to my future. You go ahead and check the degrees of your doctors. The fact of the matter is when you are in the hospital, you are seen by a competent physician, who studied and passed very difficult licensing exams for the US, as well as board exams for their state. Whether they went to Harvard Medical, or the University of New Delhi, the standards are the same. But I can see where you might be scared. Wouldn't want the darkies to treat you...

remind me what is it that you do?

[heliochrome85]

yes some schools are easy to get into. My school is pretty difficult, in part because it has higher standards than most osteopathic schools and some allopathic US schools. The average MCAT in my class is a 28. The school has an average Step I pass rate of 92%. Plus, I rotate in the US, and will be licensed in all 50 states (one of 3 schools who are fully accredited). I would say the vast majority of my class mates came from states where the bar was set much much higher (Michigan, New York). Other than coming from oversaturated states, they have no reason why they shouldnt be in the US.

and yes, most arabs are fairly proud. We don't let the prevailing "Shut up you terrorlst" mentality in the US, work.

[heliochrome85]

dude, you have your degrees posted online... I have never seen this on a car forum, and frankly, I find it hilarious... that is why I'm giving you $hit... it just looks like you're bragging and its unnecessary...

I also find it hilarious that you felt the need to tell me about what its like in the hospital...lol.. you just finished your first year of medical school.. your exposure to what its really like on the wards is minimal at best...

and no, every physician that folks see is not necessarily competent... that's partially why we have M&M conference, right ... or do I need to spell out what M&M is?

Rehasing stats on the internet is pointless...MCAT, GPA, who cares... I know stats, and I can read the USNEWS & world report rankings... lol... trust me buddy, you don't want to get into this with me... you will surely leave with your feelings hurt... everyone on this forum can attest that I can be an a$$ at times.. don't be a victim bruh...lol

anyway, congrats on getting into medical school... I'm sure it was ohhh ssoooo difficult and competitive...lol

Wouldn't want the darkies to treat you...

well, being that I'm black, I find that a funny statement

I know how hard it is to get into a medschool and STAY there afterwards.

really? you know? or you've heard? medical school has a very low attrition rate, unlike graduate school... I have much more respect for the rigors of training that engineers on this forum went through than I do for physicians...

medical school curriculum itself isn't difficult, its just fast paced, and that makes it difficult... the original thought and research required for a dissertation can be much more demanding...

if you're good at memorizing stuff and regurgitating it... become a physician... if you'd rather think outside of the box and actually use your brain to discover rather than regurgitate other people's discoveries, then become a scientist...

physicians are placed on too high of a pedal in regards to perceived intelligence in academia... place them high because they save lives, but not because you think they are somehow smarter than everyone else... (especially if they went to an osteopathic or carribean medical school)

[AZhitman]

dude, you go to a carribean medical school... embarassed is the word you should be looking for, not proud.... wait, I didn't mean that.... no wait, yes I did

THIS from a guy who drops "Johns Hopkins" every chance he gets?

I count 12 occurrences in recent history.

Pots and kettles abound...

[AZhitman]

Pretty tacky, even coming from you.

And you're calling HIM "bragadocious"?

Perhaps he didn't have an entire national organization helping him get into a prestigious school - Maybe you can hook him up with *that group*?

Oh wait - He's EXCLUDED. He's the wrong race.

Let me be very clear here: Another potshot for no reason at a respected and intelligent contributor to our forums will NOT be tolerated.

Did I mention that your comment was tacky and in incredibly poor taste?

[RED_DET]

Screw it, just let me whip out the ban stick right now...... makes no difference to me either way.

[Foreversalenhouston]

So about me buying my new Z. Im going to go to the houston nissain datsun meet to check out the other Z's exhaust and see what sounds good. Any other houston memebers going?

[AZhitman]

Sorry your thread got pooped in.

I couldn't hear a thing you typed, with all the horn-tooting.

[mcheddadi]

Screw it, just let me whip out the ban stick right now...... makes no difference to me either way.

LOOOOOOOL!!!

[RED_DET]

Whatever you get, don't make it sound obnoxious and ruin a already good sounding oem setup.

[AZhitman]

physicians are placed on too high of a pedal

Perhaps you meant "pedestal".

What school was that again?

[mcheddadi]

Perhaps you meant "pedestal".

damn! you're on a roll with the burns today lol

[peteyd]

well to try and steer this back on topic...i know you where you can get a deal on a turbo kit :P

[mcheddadi]

well to try and steer this back on topic...i know you where you can get a deal on a turbo kit :P

if its the 7000$ you talked about in the other thread well thats too much for me but if you can sponsor me or something lol, then we got a deal haha.

Have you been to med school? The caliber or the students that manage to get in is well above what you would ever see in grad school, so perhaps that has something to do with the lower attrition rate that you are pointing out? I am an engineer, my GF is in medical school, and there is no way in hell that I could come close to keeping up and passing medical school. I also would not wish what they are put through on anyone.

Regardless, all physicians that practice in the US have to pass the boards to be licensed. ANYONE that can do that deserves a bit of respect, regardless of where they received their education.

[LongBeachCoupe]

Gentlemen... Please, please, be nice!

Back on topic or im locking this s***!

[Nissan_luver08]

Im a doctor...the love doctor! no degree needed so my wife tells me...

Too bad about the coupe, but congrats on the new purchase. A Z is a Z, no matter what! Take it, love it, own it! I want a Z...that is my dream car. I want an 08 350Z or a new 370Z. I figure in 5 years, I can get a nice deal on a 370Z. And I think you got a decent price, seeing it has low miles.

GL!

[rjdmmfl1]

to AZ... yes I meant pedestal....sometime I type faster than I think... I always have incorrect words mispelled words, and gramatically incorrect sentences in my posts.. I usually don't care enough to edit them, but yes I see the irony in this case... touché....as to dropping Hopkins, there was no need to do that in this thread... not once did I mention where I trained, or what I'm doing... furthermore, I'm pretty sure if I listed all of my degrees in my signature, someone would give me $hit about it also... but I wouldn't do that.... I'm here to talk about cars, not about my education (accept in the politics forum when its brought up in the appropriate context)

to mcheddai... no need

to the converted... yes I've been to med school, and yes, the caliber of students tends to be higher.. but that's not the case for all schools, particular the top schools.. grad school has more variables and its free, thus the higher attrition, even at a school like Harvard....my point was that med school course material isn't all that abstract,,, its easy to understand, it just a lot of it... contrast that with quantum physics... and yeah. you get the picture

to the OP, sorry for thread jacking, I just thought it funny that someone had all of their degrees posted in their signature... but I completely crappped on your thread, and for that, I apologize to you my friend.... as I mentioned earlier, way to keep it in the Nissan family... enjoy the upgrade...

as to your exhaust, I haven't really heard many real aftermarket exhausts that sound bad on the Z, just a matter of how aggresive you want it to sound... but don't be a tsranger to the forum when you make your upgrade.... KUHAN got his Z and he's still around, chiming in every now and again

[Cold_Zero]

If we are here to talk about cars, why even mention Helio's sig when it was not germane to the subject matter? As if you were attempting to knock helio down a notch or two.

I think the words that you are looking for are, "sorry", "it wont happen again" and "I will stop responding in a defensive fashion.'"

Now let's get back on topic.

*Houston, nice buy on the 06Z. Have fun with it!

[mcheddadi]

to mcheddai... no need

I'm dismissed so easily lol

[DAAN.]

I did went to the dealer to check out the g37 and well I really can't love that car. I tried but it's not that big of an upgrade from my altima. it's an upgrade but it looks the same (or the other way arround lol) and other than the RWD I just can't justify "upgrading" to it. it's a 4 seater instead of our 5 and its got less rear space than our car plus the rwd is a total no-no in our winter. yeah there is a g37x with AWD but it's only failmatic (7AT). Audi rs4 is much more attractive to me now than g37.

EDIT- pic too damn big, .

That's what I said, too

... till 2 months ago when I bought the G37x : )

[BlackNWhite]

Im a doctor...the love doctor! no degree needed so my wife tells me...

[AZhitman]

I think the words that you are looking for are, "sorry", "it wont happen again" and "I will stop responding in a defensive fashion.'"

Good luck with that.

I stand by my earlier statements. Tacky, classless, and completely hypocritical, especially from someone who proclaims himself a champion for fairness and CLAIMS a distaste for those who judge prematurely.

One would think he'd be proud of a young minority, especially one from such a beleaguered group, overcoming adversity and making it into higher education at all.

Oh, and I don't buy the "I don't care enough to proofread" bullshine. Take pride in your work, it speaks volumes about you.

I think faster than I type. Most intellectuals do. Still, it won't get me into Johns Hopkins.

Remember, 50% of doctors graduated in the bottom half of their class.

[AltiCoupeDriver]

As far as exhausts go you should utilize youtube, there are plenty of sound clips for different exhausts. Also it depends on what you want, axle-back, cat-back, true dual.

I like this one:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X49F5XHNg3k

[rjdmmfl1]

every time I try to get out, they pull me back in..lol...

AZ= I love it how you moderators say let's end an off subject topic, and then you continue it for 3, 4 or 5 more posts... and you're right, let's all make sure each post is 100% gramatically correct...lol ...you my friend are the one that pays attention to detail in everything you do, even your posts... 99% of my forum posts have errors... that's not gonna change because you say I should take pride in em... I proofread stuff I deem important.. not online posts... sorry if it bothers you that much bruh...

oh yeah, and you're right 50% of doctors do graduate at the bottom of their class, but at schools like Harvard med, that means little to nothing...

I think the words that you are looking for are, "sorry", "it wont happen again" and "I will stop responding in a defensive fashion.'"

somehow you think me being an a$$hole means I'm above apologizing... I'm not...

heliochrome.. I apologize for pointing out the fact that you have your degrees posted online... at first glance it appeared as though you were being hella arrogant about your accomplishments, but after reading your responses, it seems like you're more proud than arrogant... my comments were tactless and unnecessary and in the future, i will focus my attention on forum members that make 1000 claims about what they will do to their car, and never follow through with 99% of them... j/k ..

[heliochrome85]

oh yeah, and you're right 50% of doctors do graduate at the bottom of their class, but at schools like Harvard med, that means little to nothing...

true, but last i checked, even morons like myself manage to get licensed in the US. So either the system is flawed, or you are just out to knock me down a peg for no other reason than you are bored. I wonder which it could be.

Your "apology" is hollow. I really couldn't care less about what you think about me, my sig, or my achievements. I have proven myself worth to the people who matter both in life and on this forum. If anything, you have only shown your own malice and arrogance. Quite the achievement if you ask me.

lol... OK, well I don't take back the apology just because you think its hollow... I made some rather elitist comments and it was uncalled for...

oh yeah, the comment about 50% of doctors graduating in the bottom of the class made by AZ hitman above, and he made that as a reference/quote of a statement I made over in the politics forum. it was actually a slight at me by AZ, not at you...and my response was directed at him , not you... that had absolutely nothing to do with you, so I'm not quite sure why you took offense to that...

we're not going to get anywhere on here so all I can do is apologize for my earlier comments and let's move on... people online make stupid comments all the time, and when the mods get on em about it... they get defensive and refuse to apologize in order to try and save face and make one last bold stand before the mods boot their a$$ off the forums... that's not met.. if you're wrong, say you're wrong, apologize, and move on... I was wrong and I apologize bro!

[heliochrome85]

apology accepted.
