"Sick"...
daveb666 - 21/10/13 at 10:32 AM
..is apparently what my car is.
For some reason when you're wearing a helmet, notably with a tinted visor, people seem to think you're deaf, so whilst stood at the side of
the pavement at traffic lights etc will happily discuss your car and it's looks without giving a second thought to the fact the owner is sat in
it.
Description
First comment as I pulled up at traffic lights, with a group of five <20year old lads walking on the pavement
"f**k man, check out that, that is sick. I bet like goes like f**k"
Second comment, from the passenger of a white-van at traffic lights.
"Bill[van driver I assume], have you seen this Caterham(!!???), it's proper sick. It's got plastic seats and no carpet".
That is all I have to say on that right now lol

LOL 
Just imagine if you were dressed in a white race suit and helmet a la Stig

I confess that I am at a loss to understand the modern use of the word "sick" to mean cool or something

Kids, the number of times I've driven past and they've shouted "Sick car !" actually, last time I was out I had someone shout
"Sick sideburns" so I'm not sure it means very much 
I did laugh when I was stopped at the lights and a group of lads wanted me to wheelspin off the line (I didn't) but they were waiting for me to
do it and were staring at the front wheels waiting

Same was as 'Bad' or 'wicked' was used some years ago.

I need a translator or maybe even a transfusion as the other day I was called "blood". What?
loggyboy - 21/10/13 at 11:56 AM
Blood stems from the main two LA gangs (bloods and crips)

Haha this thread made me laugh. A few years back my mates uncle was walking his dogs (he has a pair of very stocky staffies). He told me a story of
some young 'uns shouting at home that his dogs were "sick". He was really confused as apparently his dogs were very healthy!!

What is really happening here is that you are all coming to the realisation that you are now the old moaning gits you once laughed at and no longer up
with the word on the street.

*sniggers at 31*
Such an oldie!
bi22le - 21/10/13 at 03:35 PM
Im 31 and know all about "sick".
New baby in the house and realising I cant handle my drink like I used to be able to.
All good, right?!?
Back to OP - I have had my car refered as many things including sick. The young children across the road refer to him as brum and one of my mates that
has shallow pockets but an expensive taste of supercars calls my car a death trap, cheers mate!
yellowcab - 21/10/13 at 03:45 PM
All I get is "oh look, Stig"
The Venom Project - 21/10/13 at 04:05 PM
Yeah I know exactly what you mean :-)
Most of my target audience is everyone aged between 10 - 40 and the comments are hilarious, wow proper sick bitch, what kinda car is that..... its a
trike mate, what is that like one of them 3 wheelers.........

Blood relative - it used to be 'cuz' but that's now old skool...
I have also puzzled at 'Bread bin' until my youngest explained that it's a corruption of Brethren...
