        Because it's what we do. It's a language still in the making called "manganese".

          Chevymang here hit the nail right on.

          "Teh" is a traditional panther message board thing, started as a misspelling of "the win" but eventually stuck.

          "Mang", on the other hand, has a different history. Seems it stemmed from the movie "scarface", but was called "mang" by RoastDawgg in an Instant messenger convo one night. "Mang?" I asked, and he replied "Quality word."

          The rest, is history. I even call people that in real life. I'll walk up to em "Hey mang", but said real fast of course.

                    most of us have no sanity...thats why we have Panthers to mod and most think it is insane and stupid. yet where else do you find a 5.0 that hasnt been driven hard like in a Rustang? our language is as rare as our likes for these big Ford products
