    Old Merci!

    I hate
    wine
    gambling
    womanizing
    pig
    dead meat
    blood
    sodomy
    favors from in_laws
    show off
    arrogance
    hypocrisy
    suicide
    and above all
    Old Mercs!!

    A rich friend of mine recently bought an Old Mercedes and I just wrote this ditty to tease him that I hated buying an Old Mercedes than anything else

    I'm glad you explained that, mazHur. As merci is French for thanks I was afraid I was reading a diatribe by a dyed in the wool, 100% certifiable misanthrope! lol. Round here we just call them, Mercs.
