Nickname for NASCAR fans?
Someone posted a pretty amusing nickname for them a while back. I believe it was someone who transported them around.

2. In Indy, they're called "Asscar" fans...
Poor tippers who don't clean up after themselves. Dread seeing them show up every August, bedecked in their corporate-logo-covered jackets, spitting Skoal all over the sidewalks...

14. Big Props to GOPisEvil
:thumbsup:
See the elitist crap is what makes democrats lose elections, Looking down on others who don't drive a toyota hybrid, shop at costco or trader joe's, and drink fresh spring mineral water. See people that's exactly like what some DU members do on here when someone mentions the word nascar, link it to rednecks, Red states, christianity and below them. If you believe every nascar fan is like that your as stupid as you claim they are.

I went to a John Kerry Meetup during the presidential election in 2004 and there was a clique of people there who just snubbed the heck out of anyone who wasn't college education or worked a white collar job, ignoring everyone else there. Guess what happen half the people said fuck it got up and walked out, I'm sure this happens a whole heck of alot. Why would John Doe who works a 50 hour a week blue collar job and then goes to try to make a difference in this country by being political active during his spare time want to spend it around a bunch of people who snub him for what he finds as entertaining? Especially when that entertainment doesn't hurt or effect anyone in a negative light, what's the point whinning about it?

16. Didn't you know? No Democrats like NASCAR...
...or country music.

Those are exclusively enjoyed by toothless, knuckle-dragging, single-chromosome, money-grubbing, racist, homophobe, PNAC-Repukes.

21. Dang those things. They just don't make 'em like they used to.
For the record, I don't really care for NASCAR, but I love quite a bit of country music.

19. It's hard to take a side on this one, even though I don't like either
NASCAR or country music; but I think that what sticks in my craw about people like that is their ANTI-elitism. If you think about it, anti-elitism is just another form of elitism. A person who displays overweening pride in his tobacco-chewing and spitting, lack of body and dental hygiene, lack of basic education, and an unnatural passion directed more often at crankcases than the opposite sex, is no better than his polar opposite, the college-educated, classical-music-listening, wine-tasting yuppie.

27. Nah, the polar opposite of a country-listening NASCAR fan isn't
a college-educated, classical-music-listening, wine tasting yuppie. They are both simply people who follow their own passions instead of worrying about what stereotype they fit in. Some of us can be both.

The opposite of a country-music listening NASCAR fan is the same as the opposite of a college-educated, classical-music-listening, wine tasting yuppie. It's a classless, judgemental poser who slams everybody who doesn't look or act like himself. His unnatural passion is often directed more at his own hand instead of the opposite sex, often with a mirror as his only stimulation. Pray that you don't meet one. They are stomach turning.

24. Um...ouch! I knew as soon as I wrote it that it wasn't going to come out
the way I wanted it to.

I just meant that BOTH sides display an elitism of sorts. You think the phrase "cheese-eating wine-guzzlers" isn't elitist after its own fashion?

Okay, I stepped on some toes here. I apologize. Damn! Normally I'm much better at expressing myself. I'm not used to being flamed. I'm the Nice Guy On Campus, right?

Sorry, I feel rotten, I really do.

It's all good and I understand the point you were trying to make now.

29. A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.
I guess by being inconsistent for a little while, I proved that I don't have a little mind. Right?

Right?
