Re: Now I hate my car...

As an old friend used to tell me over and over and over and over... "Life sucks, the wife ...".

And good on you for doing it! You see? You see? These forums CAN be
in-cuh-REDibly useful in providing the most relevant possible
information for the sake of informed consumerism. Or consumption.
Or something.

B.t.w., Spreckley let you down easy. I have it on very good
authority that your car is ugly beyond redemption and has an
utterly worthless hand-grip. So thank the man For Sharing, buy him
a Miller Lite and a cee-gar, and give him the round of applause he
so richly deserves!

No...forget the beer and the cee-gar. I'm with David: let's get him
a dikshenarry.

2. The gas filler door is not in the right location! It's on the left side.

No, that's actually the right side. I just do NOT understand what
accounts for this kind of confusion. (Who's on first?)

But you know...after re-reading your message about the car and
seeing that "this" sucks and "that" sucks--it might not be a car at
all. It might be a vacuum cleaner. I don't mean to be needlessly
snotty or cruel or anything, but when was the last time you had an
eye exam? (Yeah, I know, I know -- the HMO sucks...)
