'Ariel'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I returned the rental and cabbed it to the service centre and made it a block away before determining the car wasn't fit to drive (this is not what I took it in for--I had a starter problem--this is the transmission...) and now I'm in a panic for two reasons--a mystery new issue which wasn't there when I sent the car in, and the fucking loaner, which I'm convinced is going to be set on fire and then stolen.
It's so fucking fancy I didn't even know how to start the engine.
FUCK.
It's so fucking fancy I didn't even know how to start the engine.
Push the button!
What kind of fancy car is it?! Does it talk?
Say, "Engage."
(I'm sorry for all the car stress, including new issue; it sucks.)
I pushed the button! I knew that bit!
But you have to press the brake at the same time, and I didn't know that bit. How are you supposed to know that bit???
It's a tricked out late model 328i. There's no cigarette lighter, there's an AUX input and a USB port, as is right and civilised. I still didn't work out how to play the music on my phone before I got home. But I will charge the iPod for the drive to work tomorrow.
(I don't want to drive to work tomorrow)
Good lord, ita, you sure don't need that. But surely the loaner must be insured to hell and gone and not really your worry.
can anyone point me to a page that clearly explains why or why not the Veterans' Jobs Bill would have violated the Budget Control Act?
Is that a Mercedes?
And msbelle, I got nothin'. Sorry...
I... actually agree with him entirely, and have pontificated on this to my workmates on occasion, but I'm still somewhat uncomfortable with my government dissing yours so openly. I don't see it making diplomatic relations any easier.
I agree with him but it's startling to realize we're at the point where other governemnts can say so publicly. But perhaps it's like how if you never talk about Uncle Steve is a drunk, it's easier to ignore. And we're edging nearer an intervention.
Yeah, just wait until we invade you. Provided we can actually find Australia.
Look for Hobbits and then zig right?
so it's going to be an exhausting weekend in which I earn lots of parental karma-points.
I am earning what had better be a decade's worth today, tomorrow and Saturday.
Though I'm also going to blow through them if my family doesn't figure out group texts. Motherfucker.
Is that a Mercedes?
BMW
Look for Hobbits and then zig right?
NOOOOOO! That takes you straight through the Mines of Moria!
