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

Yeah, especially because he still posted something that said “severed penis” :)

Well, I figured the abstract idea of a severed penis wasn't as bad as the reality of the story.

I switched over to premium gas, and the light went away.

Hm. I need to get gas today anyway, so I might as well give it a shot.

(My check engine light wasn't blinking, obviously, or else I wouldn't be at work yet. And I have to think a little bit more than I should when I ask myself, "Self, would you rather be at work, or would you rather have your car blow up?")

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I need to get gas today anyway, so I might as well give it a shot.

Before you do, try just tightening the gas cap. If it's loose it can set off the light, too.

yeah, and you feel like a real dumbass when you take the car all the way back to the dealership and that's the problem. Not like I know this personally

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

Does anyone here shop at Bluefly? I have a 10% discount code that I know I won't use, if anyone wants it.

Did y'all know that with all post-1995 cars you can connect a laptop to your car's computer and, with the right software, find out what exactly is causing the 'check engine' light to come on? Plus there's a million other things you can do (my boss did this to check the RPM of his Volvo after he put a different engine in it).

At the moment, I don't have a post-'95 car so I haven't tried it myself....

bon bon is certainly lots of good

If your car isn't supposed to need premium gas, then something is still out of whack.

Yeah, I tried that yesterday, but no go.

My brother's car requires a laptop to run. He always has to tell his passengers not to step on it. @@ It's all souped up and has at least 2 independent computers. It is amusing to watch the gas/air/whatever mix display as he drives. This is also a car that after you turn off the ignition and get out of the car and walk away? It's still running. To cool the engine down properly or something. Again, @@
