Leatherette..shoulda got it instead of leather...

S4to335 · 04-05-2007, 10:24 AM

What is with all the leather vs. leatherette posts?...sheesh. I do love how when people sell cars with leatherette...they pawn it off as leather. I have called out a few people for doing that.

LEDZEP · 04-05-2007, 10:31 AM

...and usually after claiming on this forum that leatherette (pronounced 'vinyl') is better.

Exactly! If cloth were available in the U.S. that might be something to consider... but not plastic.

+1. Don't start "what do you think about..." threads and then act pissed at the opinions offered. Also, any X vs. Y thread is annoying. Let's all go for a drive.

How "VINYL" has, in fact, become "LEATHERETTE"....

Just like the comedian Lewis Black said about "Soy Milk"; if they called it "Soy Juice", which is what it is, nobody would buy it. Sounds disgusting. But there is no tit on a soy bean, so its not milk

No, this is a pol:

Man Cuts Off His Own Genitals in Drunken Rage

40-year-old Tadeus Konopizc, from Zakopane Poland, cut off his own penis and testicles with a 6 inch kitchen knife in a drunken rage after his wife left him. He had reportedly consumed multiple bottles of vodka.

In spite of his pain the man was able to call doctors. He described what he had done and begged for help. Paramedics were dispatched who in turn called for a helicopter to transfer him to a specialist hospital.

Unfortunately for the man the helicopter was held up by heavy fog. When he reached the hospital it was too late to reattach his genitalia. Surgeons will now attempt to surgically rebuild what he severed using tissue from elsewhere on his body.
