Rain + my rx7 = bad day

Ok so I got off work at 10:00 today and everything seems fine when turn my car on and I start driving and hope on 101. Ok so I'm driving down 101 then I hope on to 880 and I check my tach and my car is overheating at 80% the. I stopped my car for a while and waited then turned it back on and everything was fine.

So now I'm driving slower worrying about my car then I see a Honda crashed on the side of the road and stuck in some bushes in a ditch. I pull over and run to see if the person is alright and this guy is flooring it in reverese. And I'm like hey hey stop ur going to blow ur engine and he's like well I need to get unstuck and I'm like ur going to need a tow. So I offer him a ride or if he needs a tow and he's like I got it I'll call.

(oh and it's raining hard). And he was like hop in for a bit I might need a tow. So blah blah 5 mins pass and he's like ight I'ma need a tow And I was like cool. I run to my car and I'm soaked right about now and get my phone And run back to her car.

And hes like get in and I'm like ok u going to have to hope to the drive side and he's like nah you can I'm like I can't ur door is pinned shut then he said oh well find a way when I'm getting soaked. Im like oh alright late have fun being stuck. Then I get back to my car and my car won't start-.- and I'm like **** the world.

I try for 10 mins and finally get it back on and the guy that crashed came back up to my car and Was like did you call them I said seriously **** off dick and bounced. Then on my way home getting off the exit I spin out bc my tires are bald and I'm like fuuuuuh life hates me. Surprisingly my car is alright and I'm fine to. But yeah kinda just wanted to share my night

Punctuation is a good thing.


Cliff notes:

It's raining

Car overheated. Smart enough to stop when noticed and let it cool.

Stoppd to help a guy who was a dick. Got soaked in the process. In frustation he left.

Driving angry, spun out due to rain and bald tires. (Duh)

Learned the lesson that no good deed comes unpunished.

The end.

Just a wild hair, but isn't this something that is supposed to post to the Lounge section? Isn't that why we HAVE a West Lounge Section to keep clutter threads like this out of what this forum is actually for?

Just saying....................

You should have gone directly to my Cliff Notes.

First the RX7 Classifieds became a Craigslist. And now the West forum became a Twitter/Facebook page.

Make the insanity stoppppppp!!
