May it be at the lowball end of the spectrum.
Thanks. (Was that here we were talking about our hybrids? I thought it was Bitches. The full mishegas is over there - in brief: another flat AND my "check engine" light came on with 10 miles to go on the IMA warranty and the nearest dealer 6 miles away.)
I friended him. Like raq, I was curious. I liked Gus at first and thought he was fun and smart and kind. Later, he seemed to post only from bars. I put his sourness on to him being drunk every time he posted and thought he was a mean drunk. I wasn't sure his stories were true by the end--I thought he was an alcoholic who was self-aggrandizing.
Kidding! I was just searching for the name of someone I myself haven't met in the flesh.
I can testify that tommyrot is indeed real. And delightful. As are most Midwesterners.

That's what I thought, too, Scrappy.
Midwesterners aren't real. We're just constructs.
The Midwest isn't real. The whole "flyover" thing is just planes flying in circles to kill time....
I have met tommyrot! But then, I'm originally from the midwest, and I am now from the desert (obviously fictional! nobody lives in the desert) so I am EVEN MORE SUSPECT.
I'm pretty sure I've met tommyrot. I think. Were you at the SFF2F? I was kinda drunk for most of it, so maybe not.
I have met Liese! More than once! Both times were in the Midwest, though, so that only strengthens the claim that we're constructs.

Note also that the 2003 and 2004 Civic Hybrids had a recall on their O2 sensors (part of the catalytic convertor).
We did not know this until we paid cash to get ours fixed and then got a notice from Honda (money months later) saying they'd pay us back.
So! That is one of the things which triggers the engine light.
Oh, adorable. If I were in the UK and I needed another dog or two I would totally adopt Padfoot:

By which I mean, Berry, who played Padfoot in the Harry Potter movies.
I have not only met Liese, but I shared a hotel room with her and she gave the precious gift of hair gel.
I have not only met tommyrot, but I was with him when we went to the Disney Store in the Chicago downtown where we both bought Violet (Incredibles) dolls, and my Edna Mode coffee cup. (Matilda now owns Violet.)
