You're right, I would be soooooo easy to take. Im a tiny little Guy who's had no training and have never been in a fight ever. Never ever ;D and are you seriously going to complaine about noise at roo? Lmao. If you didn't bring earplugs it's your fault. With the music and all the partying, a car at idle is the least of your worries. I retract my apology by the way. I was apparently wrong about you being a lady. I'm ditching the exhaust pipe now too. Too many pretentious hypercritical people on here, makes me not care.

You are "OFFiCIALLY" the most pathetic poster on these boards. The fact that you even suggested fighting a girl (or anyone for that matter) is absolutely PATHETIC!!!! Whats even funnier is the fact that your dropping hints like "I have never been in a fight before", "I would be so easy to take"....Do you think people are actually intimidated by this? Your chirping people over the inernet, thats the first sign of a coward. I remember guys like you when I was at Uni...typically they were the guys with the "short mans" complex, but Im sure youre the second coming of the Ultimate Warrior. Do yourself a favour and leave the boards. People were trying to give you constructive criticism, but you decided to try and turn it into a bully match??!!! You really need to deal with your issues...its VERY SAD!

Stratocasted, relax. You rose this whole discussion and have dismissed everyone's suggestions. You continue to state you don't care about arguments on the board, yet continue to provoke them. So here, I'll be straight up and polite with you. Don't be offended that I found this to be the easiest solution to "your problem". 1. People will not enjoy you cranking your car during the night or morning. Regardless of the party around everyone, an idling car is still a nuisance. 2. Fumes do kill and are not in anyway ok to be inhaling at anytime, dissipation or not. 3. You could probably rig an exhaust snorkel to help with exhaust/fume concern. But, you are still running a car while most would rather you keep it off. 4. I see no problem catching some cool breeze for a few minutes around 10 or 11 before you start towards Centeroo. Most people are awake and wouldn't mind by then and you would only be running it for a few minutes. 5. Regardless of how small or efficient your car is, you will have to run the engine and use the battery to use a/c. At the end of the weekend, that's a good amount of gas to consume just to stay cool for a bit. There you go. Do it if you'd like, just be aware no one really thinks its a swell idea.
Well, if you weren't so arrogant and infallible, and took 60 seconds to read the information in the link I posted before, you'd know that's not such a bad idea since studies have born out this old folk remedy does indeed work.
Or here's yet another source, although I didn't post it before because the method of administration was intramuscular rather than oral. But hey, keeping an open mind and learning something new hurts some people's heads I guess. Think this is the first time I've seen a moderator trolling before though, so it's somewhat entertaining. Better start behaving or I will sic my boy strat on ya woman.

As a health care professional, I can not and will not condone eating poison ivy leaves. End of story. If it works for you, great. Move on.
And don't you dare sic strat on me.
Fair enough, I respect your opinion, agree to disagree. It has really helped me though, and I was just as skeptical as all of you when I first heard it, and I heard it from someone I trusted deeply, not just some guy online. I shouldn't have even joked about strat, now if he does anything to anyone, I might be named codefendant in the lawsuit.

Very credible sources......
Where's the article on pigs flying?
Yeah, nih=national institute of health Glad you brought it up though, this message board is surely peer reviewed/credible. My bad for trying to back up my anecdotal evidence with a little science. Does trolling give people a buzz or something?

He was probably referring to the first article. I don't know anything about the site, but I can see how it could look less than reputable.

Serioulsly Dood.....
Straightdope.com?????
National Institute of Health was obviously the only article that you could find on the net that came even close to resembling the nonsense youve been arguing. I highly doubt you or your grand dad went to the national Institute of health before biting snake heads or poisin ivy.
Like other posters said on here...to each their own, but 99.9% of medical professionals will tell you that this is an AWFUL idea. Your referenced articles are hardly proof that this is a trusted method...far from it.
Just a note. It was not an NIH article. It was a Journal of allergies and Clinical Immunology article from 1981 hosted on an NIH site. It was probably peer reviewed, but the science is over 30 years old.
Love the fact that the guy who is obviously trolling (albeit unintentionally) is calling everyone else here out for trolling.
Just accept the fact that you kind are a dick and that the fact of the matter is eating poison ivy is dumb and it's really only courteous to run your car in the middle of the day. I mean hell, I turn my car on for about 15 minutes around noon or soon after so I can cool off during the hottest part of the day before facing the heat.
I don't see why all this hostility is is needed from strat and papa. Just take a breath, relax, and BE EXCITED THAT 'ROO IS SO CLOSE.

LMAO! Either you guys are trolls, illiterate, burnouts, or don't care to read anything I've posted. Too funny. Take a careful read over the thread and you'll see what I mean. Or don't. But I can't keep correcting everyone. Good bye silly internet people. If you'd like to find me, I'll be the one revving his engine all night every night.
Just when I thought we were done with this guy!? I open my PMs and low and behold I have a hostile message from Mr. Stratocasted (the guy who obviously ISNT a troll).
(No Subject) « Message sent Today at 12:51am » Hey I couldn't help but to PM you. I got a good laugh at your reply. You need do read a little bit of a post before you go and say dumb stuff. If you read it. I never said anything about fighting a girl. I saw a post saying someone should kick my ass. I did not look at the sex of the poster until I hit reply. Which is why I immediately posted again, saying something like "oh I didn't realize you were a girl, you can bring a few male friends to try on your behalf" AND THEN came back 5 mins later and apologized for even suggesting she bring her friends. But you didn't read any of that so you wouldn't know. Or you're a troll which is......lol. don't reply to this, I'm not initiating a conversation, I'm making a statement to correct you. Farewell and good luck in your endeavors

I will pull my hair out if me and my friends have to camp beside this bafoon! Ugghhhhhh..... Anyway to block this dood?
Speaking of someone not being able to read where did I, or anyone, suggest that someone kick his ass? It was a "heads up dude, if you act like this and put someone in a med tent someone might just be upset." I think we have established I'm not a lady so I didn't fluff it up or dumb it down enough for him.

Roosters attempt to give advice which you can take or ignore. Being disrespectful and an all around dbag is not necessary. If you don't want to take the advice, simply state that and move on. The same thing goes for being at Roo. Respect people around you. Just ask the folks around you if they mind you running your vehicle. Is that really asking so much?

Last year we ran the car for an hour or 2 each day to cool down and charge our phones, no one seemed to have a problem. Out of hand threads like this remind me why I'm usually a forum lurker and not a poster, seems like all sides were taking themselves too seriously.

It probably boils down to proximity. My teen son and his friend decided to start the car and sit in it for about an hour without permission a few Roos back. My tent was about 5 feet from the exhaust. Made me 1) hot as hell because it warmed the area so much 2) sick as a dog for a good bit.
I had an uncle who died from CO poisoning at age 19 from sitting in a parked car that was running in high grass with the windows cracked. So dissipation occurs, however certain conditions are a perfect environment for trapping/streamlining the gases close to people on the ground. Having neighbors pissed at you is something one can live with, although it is always swell to make nice with the neighbors because you'd be surprised what a great bunch of people they may be. However, killing your neighbors is something you'd probably have a tough time living with.
Just be careful guys. The tailpipe system may be a good idea just to be sure. No one ever thinks that anything bad is ever going to happen, and then it does.....
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.
If you plan on keeping your car windows open a lil while you sleep bring some sort of screens/nets and a couple big battery powered fans. My first year I put an air mattress in my XB and slept there. The only thing that got annoying were the flies.
Truthfully though, you'd be better off getting a pop-up canopy and sleep under that, or at least put one over your car. All that metal collects a lot of heat.
And yes, be careful of your exhaust and use common sense. That stuff can be dangerous, but good chance if you have a small car you'll be able to run it for an hour for some air or phone charge. Just make sure your exhaust isn't pointed into someones tent.
