The Top Gear website, talking about the Bugatti Veyron that was on the show tonight:

"It's so good, the Stig cried after driving it."

I think a tiny piece of me just crumbled into mush with the sheer "Aaawwwww!!"-ness of it.

...I think my brain is broken trying to imagine the Stig crying. o.0

and RE: a previous post, Roger on Top Gear?

That would kill me. Dead. No words. Just high pitched screaming. They should invite him, especially since he seems to get paid in cars ^_~

Mine too. He's the *Stig*, he just... doesn't.

Paid in cars, that's *awesome* and so true. *giggles* They really should invite him, he'd be great. And plus, it'd make me scream too. ;) General screaming all round I think.

It truly was a thing of beauty. Watching Clarkson win again was great. Plus he talked for a full 2 minites without breathing which was pretty impressive.
There description of the stig was also ace this week:
"some says he can swim 7 lengths of the pool underwater without breathing, and that he has a webbed buttocks"

The part of me that wanted Clarkson to lose was disappointed but the part of me that fell in love with the Bugatti was so happy it won that I didn't care. ^__^ The talking-thing was definitely impressive.

Did you see Clarkson looking dubiously at Hamster while Hamster said it? It was like he was thinking "Dammit, he's upstaging me!"

That car? Is sex on wheels. Having read the discussion on Roger's car whoreness, I can picture him fanboying over that.

Why can't we Americans get shows like Top Gear? *Pouts*

[clo.livejournal.com]

Ooooooh yes, utter sex. Roger is a total car whore, so I can see him fanboying too. *giggles* I wish I could see it; Roger being all excited and little-boyish is so cute.

They do show it over there but apparently the TV companies decided all references to petrol, bumpers, pavements etc. had to be completely removed, so you get a strangely edited version I think. Which is nuts; we Brits understand gas, sidewalk, trunk etc. in movies so why they can't just leave things alone... -_- You do however get everything else a millenia before us, like Lost and House, so I guess it balances. Still not really fair though. *sighs*

Stop it!

[clo.livejournal.com]

What did I do? ;) I'm only fangirling over cars, shouldn't you be pleased?

[dukedee.livejournal.com]

Car's aren't objects to be fangirled over, they're big manly objects. They're about the only thing I'll be sexist about.

*dies of giggles* You're nuts, you know that right? ;-) Have you *seen* the Ferrari Enzo? (rhetorical question) It's about the ponciest, prettiest, least-manly thing I've ever seen.

... If I told you I was going to write slash set in an Aston Martin DB9, would you disown me? ;-)

[dukedee.livejournal.com]

Enzo's aren't pretty, there one of the ugliest things going, but it's still called aerodynamics really, not pretty or ugly.

Do what the hell you like with a DB9, I hate the bloody things.
