Can we all agree to ban the use of the term "MARO" on this forum

Maro sounds gay! Cammy...gay X2!

[LS7 427]

The European Commission has just announced an agreement whereby English will be the official language of the European Union rather than German, which was the other possibility. As part of the negotiations, Her Majesty's Government conceded that English spelling had some room for improvement and has accepted a 5-year phase-in plan that would be known as "Euro-English".
In the first year, 's' will replace the soft 'c'. Sertainly,this will make the sivil servants jump with joy. The hard 'c' will be dropped in favor of the 'k'. This should klear up konfusion and keyboards kan have one less letter.
There will be growing publik enthusiasm in the sekond year when the troublesome 'ph' will be replased with the 'f'. This will make words like 'fotograf' 20% shorter!
In the 3rd year, publik akseptanse of the new spelling kan be expected to reach the stage where more komplikated changes are possible. Governments will enkorage the removal of double leters which have always ben a deterent to akurate speling. Also, al wil agre that the horible mes of the silent 'e' in the languag is disgrasful and it should go away.
By the 4th year, peopl wil be reseptiv to steps such as replasing 'th' with 'z' and 'w' wiz 'v'. During ze fifz year ze unesesary 'o' kan be dropd from vords kontaining 'ou' and similar changes vud of kurs be aplid to ozer kombinations of leters.
After ze fifz yer ve vil hav a rali sensibl ritn styl. Zer vil be no mor trubl or difikultis and evriun vil find it ezi tu undrstand ech ozer.
Zen Z Drem Vil Finali Kum Tru!

Those are terms of familiarity.

The Camaro isn't your buddy. It isn't your friend. It's like having a pet tiger or a pet shark. It may live with you and you may enjoy having it around but it demands your respect 100% of the time.

Never forget that.

Did someone forget what CAMARO means???

I was fond of Camy-doodley-diddy, but I guess it will never fly amongst you tough critics...

then please use it the right way -- 'Maro. The apostrophe goes before the "maro" part b/c you are dropping the "ca" part.

I got no problem with 'Maro'. I do think it's a bit girly to say. Like a dude saying 'Fabulous', it's fine as a word but .................... anyway,......

Has everyone seen the new wheels on my Maro yet?

Actually when Chevy brought the Camaro out it basically said the word Camaro meant "friend" or "companion". Apparently it is derived from a french word.

Or at least that is what I have read.

f-body, C5 and 'maro all kind of annoy me.

F-body fits 1-4th gen because the car was built on the "F" platform. 5th gen isn't.

C5 is a "vette along with all other Cx nomenclature.

'maro is for the mullet crowd.

as long as I can call at least one of them MINE I don't loose sleep over any of this though.

honestly guys, aren't there better things to worry about?

idk maybe real world things, like feeding your kids, your job, your education (which some need to work on), not what somebody else calls a vehicle online.

I know it's supposed to be some sort of abbreviation perhaps, but is it just me or does "Maro" just sound incredible lame?

I didn't bother reading the list of responses, but just decided to post right away.

Ran outta things to whine about?? Really, whether someone refers to it as Maro, Cammy, The Car, or biscuit box really doesn't affect me, or how I'll conduct my day. So no... I don't care what anyone calls 'em. Just another term in the neverending, and always expanding dictionary of American slang.

And no... I don't refer to Huggabunch as a Maro.

I agree and do not use the term "Maro"
