Stuck in traffic, Chris flirted with a woman driving a Jetta not realizing she was a carface.
OK, I’ll bite. I like it, but, after thinking long and hard about useage & context, I’m at a loss to how we can disseminate it. It seems that it requires a 3rd person omniscience to use it in the present tense. The 2 parties in the example scenario don’t know their roles in the exchange–unless–they exit their car, at which point the carfacer, now having visual confirmation of her body below her neck, then assesses the lady as the carface–outside of their respective cars. The numerous lexicographers in our audience might have a different take.
At any rate, I’m going to digout “Gasface” by 3rd Bass.
The car example was just used to drive the point home. A carface can definitely be identified outside a vehicular context and without the discovery element.
Your car example drove the point home. How can it be used outside a vehicular context in point of this fact? Goddamn it!
