Why does this still happen? You know, years ago when a CD player was still a luxury option in a car and you wanted poeple to knwo you had one in your car you could be cheesy enough to hang a disc on the mirror. My question is WHY IN THE BLUE f**k do some people still do this? Is it some throw away CD they don't like listening to in the first place, thus they don't mind losing it out of their rotation? Or if it is one they listen to, why go to the trouble of hanging it if you're only going to take it down eventually? Or maybe they're too stupid to realize how dumb it looks? Kind of like someon ewho still wears leg warmers to work out!
I have two CDs, my graduation tassel (from '89), a pine tree air freshner, half a dozen Longhorn Foundation tags and my Vuarnet Revos (with yellow neoprene sunglass straps) hanging from my rear view mirror. Chicks dig me.
the original post is right, it's really ghetto-ish to do this. And that goes for anything hanging from the mirror.
If they are a pair of thongs, Mac, that means you have a pair of rear view undies hanging from your rear view mirror?
in cars with a system the CD vibrates like a mother. It is clearly visible to anyone. It may be to show off the bass. Deafening bass seems to have been a fad though. I used to hear it all the time, and now i rarely do and i love in Houston.
judging from the job sites I work on, hanging a cd from your rear view mirror doesn't mean you are gay. It means you are a mexican
I also think it is a Mexican thing. I thought it started with Selena. I was pretty sure that the two best ways to honor Selena (at one point in time) was to hang her CD from your mirror and to put a pencil sketch that one of your family members drew in a frame on the kitchen wall. Maybe I'm wrong.
****, i'm mexican, but i don't have a cd haging from my rear view mirror. i thought my last name in old english lettering on my back window would let everybody know that. palabra.
I'm also Mexican, but I don't hang CDs on my mirror or put my familia's last name on the back window in Olde English to let everybody know my ethnicity. Instead, I had some vato airbrush the Dallas skyline on the trunk. Right next to my "La Recuerda" radio station sticker.
sometimes I want to be a mexican so I went ahead and had an airbrushed painting of a topless mermaid laying on the playa next to my truck, put on my tailgate
