[Mazda_Powered]

I'll check tomorrow, but I think it's 14" 1500cfm from ebay...was around $40 shipped

[Ace]

Same. 14" pusher off egay. $35 shipped, 1550 CFM. I've got a stock single core rad and that pusher and I've got no problems in the florida heat.

[MazdaNoob]

ok tx guys .. got a 16" lol but it's local and no shipping for 40 so i figure a few more cfm wont hurt

[atomicEGT]

"egay"?

really? what are you, 12?

[bogaut]

[Ace]

"egay"?

really? what are you, 12?

Are you just that ****ing bored that you have to critique the slang terminology I use?

[atomicEGT]

maybe.

or maybe I'm sick of seeing people perpetuating the "gay = bad" connotation (whether consciously or unconsciously) and felt like calling you out for it.

[Chad]

yeahh miatas are gay... doesnt make them a bad thing!

[atomicEGT]

how can an inanimate, gender-less object have a sexual orientation?

[KaleoXtreme]

Yeah, (*sarcasm*) don't you know everything you see on the interwebs should be taken literally?! DUH!

[crazycanadian]

I played in the rain today... Had the car side ways a number of times... Gotta love winter autocross racing..

[DuRWooD]

While not too much offends me personally, scarcasm or not, I'm pretty disgusted with society.

[Ace]

maybe.

or maybe I'm sick of seeing people perpetuating the "gay = bad" connotation (whether consciously or unconsciously) and felt like calling you out for it.

Or maybe I wasn't using it in that sense? If it was "bad" why would I recommend he buy that part off there... You're looking too far into this man, it was simply a stupid slang term. Nothing more.

I've never seen or known someone to say, "Ah, that's gay, man.", or, "Yeah, they've got 'em cheap on eGay.", with malicious intent. Nobody's even mentioning gay people. It's not meant to be hateful. The word gay didn't even used to have homosexual connotation. Something like, "That shirt makes you look really gay, bro.", is a better example of using the word ignorantly. I support LGBT people all the way, but you can't take everything so offensively, like, "Why's it got to be gay? Are you some kind of bigot or something?". This usage probably stems from the group of generalized (and often offensive) words used to describe homosexuals. Take the word queer, for example, which originally meant strange, unusual or not right. Since it falls into that relative group of words, the definition could have been loosely used and thus we have the, "Ah, that's gay, man.", comment. See 'VatoZone' as another example.

I see it as a careless misuse of wording, if anything.

[atomicEGT]

yo, when people eBay to describe something, it's usually for something cheap/poorly made, like eBay headers or whatever, and it usually has a negative connotation whether you think about it or not. using "egay" does the same thing, except now you've added "gay" to it. also, that **** is just dumb. just say eBay if you mean eBay.

Josh, I find it really hard to believe you've never heard someone say, "that's gay, man" with malicious intent.

Also, "VatoZone" is racist as ****.
