A muscle car is any vehicle, typically from the 1940s-1970s that follows one basic formula: a mid-sized or compact car with a larger motor than nessicary to motivate the car. There are many misconceptions about the muscle car, very typically seen in this day and age. among them:
-muscle cars are not, in fact, only from the narrow period between approximatly 1965-1971.
-the typical muscle car was made for no other purpose than going very fast in a straight line. short of spending a fortune in upgrades, a muscle car will NOT pull .8 G's on the skidpad, put down any notable numbers on the slalom or figure 8, or achieve anything but a fast ET.
-assuming muscle cars can easily romp so-called "import cars". in 9 out of 10 cases, a muscle car will easily be outdone by all tests by a new car except possibly the quarter mile. This is NOT because the muscle cars are slow, inefficent, or any other nonsense. the simple fact is, these cars are fossils, some over 40 years old. technology has made many leaps and bounds in those last 40 years, so it would be shameful if a new car could not beat a muscle car.
-All in all, muscle cars are very cool cars, that in my personal opinion, look better than many of the new cars today. the mythos surrounding them today does nothing more than slander them, and even further skyrocket thier price, which is CERTAINLY not nessicary. so please people, only view them for what they are: cool, old, quarter mile stormers.

friend: dont embarress yourself man. even with a top-of-the-line muscle car, such as a 427 cobra jet mustang with a 4 speed, youd still get thrashed. hes got almost 40 years of high tech on you. just be content that your car looks a hell of a lot better than his little anonymous little box, no matter how many LEDs or plastic bits he puts on it.

Get the Morning Muscles mug.The same as "beer muscles", where when a person is drunk, they do and say things they wouldn't normally have to courage to do, or say. Internet muscles are where a person gets online, reinvents themselves, and says things they can't say in public, like using racial slurs for example.
Khayam can flex his internet muscles and only use the N word, online because he's way too much of a pure coward to ever say it in public to a black person's face.
