Everything that is important in life can be learned from mercedesshop.com
 

1) Life is hard, then you go to Open Discussion.

2) Open Discussion never killed anything except maybe a few hours.

3) When in doubt, ask Larry Bible.

4) Variety is the spice of life: one day ignore people, the next day befriend them.

5) A new post never stays at the top for long--unless it is from a moderator.

6) Never pretend your are someone else just because you don’t feel good about yourself.

7) Make your mark in the world, or failing that, at least try to learn the difference between contributing and criticizing.

8) When looking for cheap car parts think nothing of asking the same question to 500 people in the same place.

9) If you're not receiving enough attention, try the same post in every forum.

10) If you suspect someone has multiple screen names, they probably do.

11) Always give generously--a kind word says, " :cool: "

12) The best ideas are often not successful because they are not understood.

13) Even though some people can’t put three sentences together without talking about themselves or using the word “I” doesn’t make them bad.

14) Youth will inherit the world, and all the old Mercedes. It is happening as you read this.

15) When you leave Open Discussion, remember: it will usually all be there when you return.

16) The worst ideas are often successful because they are not understood.

17) Never say Lexus makes a better car than does Mercedes.

18) Find your place in the sun--especially if it happens to be in a Mercedes Cab.

19) A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

20) Do not trust accolades. 2 days from now the same folks will flame you.

lol.. you forgot one.

21) Don't mess with Texas(or Republicans for that matter)

:D

22) Make your own informed decision about motor oil, just change it often;)

23) When in doubt, blame the OVP!

25) No one, but no one, will EVER really know what TLJ is.

Gilly

that's good:).

Right. The OVP can be blamed for anything wrong with your Mercedes, even if your model doesn't have one.

The OVP is also responsible for famine in third world countries.

And the current pathetic state of the US economy!;)

20) Do not trust accolades. 2 days from now the same folks will flame you.


this is a keen observation with great insight. ;)

20) Do not trust accolades. 2 days from now the same folks will flame you.

AHHH!!! there is wisdom in this post Tracy


……. And a few censored posts…

*** *** ***


…..Variety of personalities and opinions enriches the scene the forums are creating.

*** *** ***


….True and genuine inward certainty does not in the least fear outward analysis, nor does truth resent honest criticism. BTW, I do not make this observation by way of criticism.

*** *** ***

…….In kindness and with mercy minister to all who are in mechanical distress and in dire need of motoring advice…

*** *** ***

……Many noble human impulses die because there is no one to hear their expression. Truly, it is not good for man to be alone in the motoring world….

*** *** ***

…..At the time of this writing the worst of the skeptical age is over; the day of a better understanding is already beginning to dawn…..(I hope!!!)

*** *** ***


…..True. Effort does not always produce joy, but there is no happiness without intelligent effort…

*** *** ***

….. This unfortunate combination of individual peculiarities and mental tendencies conspire to destroy a well-intentioned man who fail to subdue these evils by faith and trust.

Great post Tracy!!
