What's with the "v." in all the click & brag threads???
I see the "v." in many of the thread titles in the click and brag forum lately. I don't get it 
This was only going back two pages in the C&B forum:
Latest details™ v.belated Christmas gift
Today's detail v. dirty mats, lots of pics
Recent details™ v.New Detailer's Pride and PB's EX w/carnauba
Latest Two v. BMW& Acura
Recent Details - v. Overcoming Arachnophobia x 2 and a Horse

There was an explanatory post some time back. It is supposed to mean Version ala software where you find "product name vx.x".
Today I see something new, the TradeMark logo. I seriously doubt that "latest details" is trademarked.

Recent Details version Overcoming Arachnophobia x 2 and a Horse still does not make sence to me. But I admit to old age and not being 'hip with the kids'.
I heard someone say "groovy" the other day, now that took me back 30 years.

Think of each "version" as a chapter in a book of someone's life of detailing.
book title = Recent Details
Chapter one: '69 Camaro Z28, $100 Bronco, Durability Updates
Chapter two: 3 Bottles of Wine
Chapter three: Overcoming Arachnophobia x 2 and a Horse
And so on...
Get it now?

i think i noticed scottwax using it first. either other people aren't too creative and can't think up their own, or they think its some sort of standard for a click and brag post.
I think scott TM'd it as a joke in response to the amount of people using it.

I doesn't to me either. I had also thought it stood for "versus" and then since that doesn't make sense, then though t it was extremely short for " view".
I guess what is meant here is that each individual detail job is a different version of the partiuclar person's overall act of detailing. |
