Lessons: The Fast & The Furious

Fast and Furious Lessons

In light of the weekend release of "Fast & Furious 4" we were asked by a reader recently whether any writers in Menslife are fans of the franchise. We answered by giving a snapshot of our parking lot:

  • 2001 Holden Barina - Mods: 17in Gold Spinner Rims, Carbon Fibre Fuel Cap, 
  • 1996 Suzuki Swift - Mods: Bumper Sticker that says "Caution: I Brake For Hookers"
  • 1998 Toyota Camry - Mods: Toyota Badge Replaced with Ferrari Badge
  • Novara Bonita Women's Mountain Bike w/ Daisy Decals

So in simpler words, "F*ck yeah we are fans. So much so that we live by their lesson that if a car looks good then it must be fast."

This prompted us to see what other lessons The Fast & The Furious franchise has thought us. Here are some that are floating around our office.

1. All cars can reverse at 150 Km/h with perfect handling

2. Really good racers don't need to look at the road when driving. (only works if hot girl is sitting next to you)

3. Your grandma can't drive a stick.

4. You should always double clutch even with modern clutch systems.

5. If you are Paul Walker then you can drive any car off a bridge and not scratch your car.

6. If you are not Paul Walker then you are f*cked.

7. A 10 second, quarter mile race takes about 10 minutes to complete.

8. There is a very lucrative black market for stolen gasoline.

9. Police officers that conduct illegal activities, assault other officers, let known-felons escape and have no respect for the law have no problem keeping their job.


Readers, feel free to continue this list with lessons that you have learned.
