Truth is, most of us don't give a damn.
90% of the owners are snobs no matter what you call a BMW.

That you don't give a damn is perfectly acceptable.
That you think BMW owners are all snobs, is just as acceptable.

I was just answering the question because someone asked what the
difference was between a bimmer and a beemer (and, anyone who
knows the least bit about them, already knows the difference).

Once I answered the question, we should have been done with
this discussion.

If, after being told the simple answer, they *still* want to
call it the wrong thing, then that's up to them. Not me.

If they want to call a tire a wheel, who am I to argue with them?
If they want to call a nail a screw, who am I to argue with them?
If they want to call a wheelcover a hubcap, who am I to argue with them?
etc.

I was simply answering the question.
It is a BMW whether it has 2 wheels or 4. Bimmer or Beemer are both
just *******izations of the same name. You want to think there is a
difference, go right ahead., If a Boston Beaner says Bimmer it'll come
out Beemer anyway.
