guys? whats so funny about this? i seriously dont get it? i presume the whole joke is something to do witht he word 'rice'.. is it?

A google search will net you result like this:

Ricer [risse-urr] N.

[Ricer: from the Latin word Ricarius meaning to suck at everything you attempt]

A person who makes unnecessary modifications to their economy sedan (mostly import cars from Japan hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are

* Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder

* Large spoiler on the back that looks like something Boeing made for the 747

* Lots of aftermarket brand stickers they saw on cars in the Fast & Furious

* Ridiculous lights or paint jobs- why not make your car look like a Christmas tree?

Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, Mitsubishi Eclipses, Toyota Camrys, Corollas, however there are some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; small, slow, economy cars designed specifically to go slow. Please note that there are many high performance import cars as well that are designed to go fast that are often mislabeled as "rice". Such cars as Supras, Skylines, WRX', NSX, Evo IV, etc.. fall into this category. Unfortunately, in today's world cars like this still must be handled on a case-by-case basis.

The ricer attempts to make their car "performance" by adding the modifications listed above. These ricers are not confined to any one ethnic group or color, however different ethnic groups are known for certain styles. (example: Mexican=mini trucks; African Americans=Escalades; etc..) These rice boys are also known to talk a lot of shit about their cars too. The best place to see a ricer is in his native habitat, any mall parking lot.

Here are the three main areas you need to visit in order to understand the true art of rice and other car types all the way:

Here's an easy tool that shows you the main parts of a rice.

Any combo of 4 or more of the items below classifies the car as rice.

* Tall spoiler

* Neon glow underneath

* Any stickers

* Japanese writing of any kind

* Racing stripes on a car under $15K

* Silly-ass body kit

* Lowered too far

* More than one exhaust tip (that came with only 1 stock)

* Ridiculous stereo

* Self spray-painted int/exterior panels

* Any additional interior lighting
