The French and Spanish don't like the speak english because they thing their language is the world language.. Why would they speak another language if everyone should speak theirs??????

That's the reason why dutch people usually are multilangual. Nobody speaks dutch so I need to know German, English, French and Spanish to get around in europe..

Btw, germans understand dutch too.. I had a discussion with a german once and started to swear in dutch.. he knew exactly what I was talking about haha

Ricer is the slang term used by some for Asiatic brands of vehicles that normally put emphasis on quality of the product moreso than performance and handling.

Ricer can be, but not limited to: Honda Civic or Accord, Acura TSX, Toyota Celica, or almost any small car by Subaru, Nissan, Mazda...etc.

I don't believe that a Honda that is cleanly modded and tastefully done is deserving of the ricer title. Just because a car is from Japan or what have you, does not automatically make it a ricer.

A BMW with an over the top spoiler, lots of stickers and some flashy paint can be considered a ricer as well.

Some hardcore enthusiasts that are mainly interested in performance, often consider any mod that is added just for looks as "rice." Under this definition, rear reflectors, heavy wheels and add-on bumpers would all fall under the category of rice.
