Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Getting to the headlight on a Jetta? I'm so not doing that myself.

Oh man, nevermind then. I had heard someone say it wasn't too bad. My definition of easy blub replacement doesn't involve tools.

OK, mine's a bitch, but that is an INSANE design. To change bulb, remove grill?

Good lord.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Yikes, ita. Though from the looks of things, my Malibu would probably require the same.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Round sealed-beam headlights rule!

Holy fuck. I thought the Germans were famous for good engineering? That's purposefully perverse. Evil Germans.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

tommyrot, there is a question for you (and Chikat) in F2F.

My headlights have never gone, thank god - the times I thought it had it turned out to be a fuse. Which, actually, in my Golf were really easy to access and visually check to see if one had blown. In my Passat you basically have to lie prone on the sidewalk in a really contorted sort of on your back position and crane your neck backwards and then you probably still can't see them. Utterly ridiculous design.

Ack. Sorry, shrift.

Ah, don't worry about it. The pain was fleeting, and has been replaced with inbox-induced rage. Too! Much! Work! Just now:

Boss: You sneeze every time a new job comes in.
Me: t gasp I really am allergic to work!

I didn't realize VWs were that bad. The more expensive German brands seem to be serviceable by dealer or specialist garage only, but I thought VWs were less prone to that sort of stuff.
