  • Fluffy dice in a THP - what to do and WHY?

    The day, today, being what it is, means that I am now in the posession of some black fluffy dice

    So what shall I do with them. Hang them majestically from my Dsport Turbo?

    Should they be hung at the front- or the back?

    Its actually made me think where the use of fluffy dice originated from, and what the meaning is
    And is it a woman thing? or a man thing? I mean both sexes have pairs of things do we not?

    HANG THEM- OR BIN THEM
    ?

      And:
      The practice of fuzzy dice originated in the U.S. in the 1950s and is considered one of the first items sold specifically to be hung from a rear-view mirror. The exact meaning and origin of fuzzy dice is unclear, but one theory holds that U.S. pilots in World War II used dice in their cockpits for good luck, and they continued the practice when they came home from the war.

      While fuzzy dice were at the height of their popularity in the 1970s and the 1980s, they have since become increasingly rare. A 1993 study showed there to be no correlation between the use of fuzzy dice and the degree of a driver's reckless driving behavior.

          When you think of fuzzy dice you tend to think of Essex boy racers in their souped up Escorts and sun strips!

                            BIN,
                            hanging anything from the rearview mirror is a big NO NO IMO just looks tacky. This is the reason I ban my GF's from buying me anything for my car's has they have no taste when it comes to what to get for a car and if they really want to get me something for the car I just tell them to give me the money LOL
