Golf R -v- Golf GTI

[triode12]

8-12 months is too long to wait for delivery of a new vehicle. Circumstances and buyer sentiments can change over that period of time. Plus new variants come out like this Golf GTI Edition 35:

Volkswagen GTI Edition 35 First Drive

He wouldn't want the 35...it has the older and inferior EA113 engine.

I call shenanigans, the only cars that seem to be delayed are 3drs from old orders.

Dealers seem to have heaps of 5 door stock (Camberwell does anyway) in varying options so if someone really wanted a car and didn't want to wait, they'd be able to find something for immediate delivery without too much trouble. That goes for GTI as well.

Im amazed noone else has picked you up on your lack of knowledge, but hey...

Dry sump - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Einstein, two counts for you.
1. I was being sartirically (google it, I'm sure you'll need to) sarcastic about dry sumps, oil levels and energy waste etcetera,
2. That'd be 'no one', eh?

or should that be 3 and out??? As a wise old fella said sartirically to me...better keep your mouth shut and be though stupid than open it and be proven so...lol phttt!

That's a tautology right there mate.

Oh, and it's satirically.

Hope that helps you out in future. You look a bit of a **** lecturing people about spelling and grammar when you can't grasp basic literary devices and basic spelling.

He was mean to me and I didn't do nothin' to him...I dunit to Corey.

Sartirically, quite so: Should have italicised both instances. How embarrassing!
Not that the intended recipient picked it, despite the open invitation. Maybe a squiggly red underline would have helped? I’d guess it wasn’t ‘G’oogled?

Hmmm, not quite on the tautology.

Without referring to the unopened grammar text books…

Tautology is to unnecessarily express the same thing in succession.

A fine example is ‘to kill dead’. Given there is only one state of dead, presuming you don’t include the super natural, then any time something is killed it must be dead. It is possible to die dead however? Either way dead is dead! In some cases it would be useful to know how death was borne (ha, ironic expression, eh?) so an adverb would be useful to further describe ‘how’.

Now, satire, or ‘humorous’ criticism, has many forms with sarcasm being just one of them: Low brow, I’ll concede.

Sarcasm is not intrinsically humorous, to wit…it seems.

The criticism drawn, with respect, would be akin to saying that ‘running slowly or ‘thinking poorly’ was a tautology. Running can have many states, slow, fast or carelessly, if you will.

The adverb ‘slowly and ‘poorly’ could respectively be substituted for ‘quickly’ or ‘cleverly’ (however probably not in this context) with a notable change to how the verbs were conducted, which as in this circumstance, ‘satirically sarcastic’ is in consistent use with the adverb rule.

While you’re free to have an opinion whether (or was that weather or wether, sic) or not I’m a, as so eloquently phrased, ‘****’, I have little doubt that no tautological gaff was made by using sarcasm as an adverb to describe how the satirical comment was made.

Unless you were having a taunt at keeping ‘mum’ which would be more ironic at this point than tautological. ; )

How indulgently verbose: Should be an error or 3 to pick...such opportunity.

Volley (on the full or barrage)?
Or: A Golf R full of fluids is a better proposition (preposition) than a GTI low on fluids or vice versa: Which is to say back on to the well aged topic now.

Guys, just cut it with all the grammar, spelling, and back and forth insulting of people. If you don't have anything to say on the topic then just don't post. Thanks

But you're both luckier than I am.
I'll be driving the Subaru for much, much longer...we're (I'm) doing an extension.
Might explain my mood?
