IM SOOOOO MADDDD!

[woodly6]

Time to rant:

Picture This- I am driving home from Sacramento(SB 99) to Lodi, at about 4:17am my back tire starts making a funny noise and it becomes increasingly hard to maintain speed. Low and behold a flat tire, on the drivers side no less. So needless to say I pull off to the side of the freeway, trying to get as far over as I can, so not to be hit by the passing big rigs.

Problem 1. No lights on the side of the freeway.
Problem 2. My hazard lights dont work.(keen time to find this out)
Problem 3. There is a rather large speaker box with 12 inch kicker comps on top of the spare.

I deal with it and continue my business of changing the tire, scared for my life rushing over to the other side of the car everytime a car or big rig passes, making this a very long process. I am finally done, cleaning up, putting the disgraced flat tire in the trunk, putting the speaker box back, blah blah blah, and someone pulls over and says "Do you need help?" I almost went apesh!t.
I am home now, not dead much to the dismay of the passing truckers, and decided to rant out some frustrations on the good ol AT.

Now I think I will fall asleep to nice calming movie like FIGHT CLUB.


Thanks for your concern for my well being.

It's not like the motorist waited for you to finish your tire change and then approached you for help. I would be pretty happy if someone even stopped.

You OK now? Yeah things like that happen in life Things like flat tires and that happen Our car had one just last week... but I wasn't tehre... but just my Mum and Aunt... oh what fun they had... had to call out the AA (U.K Break Down Service) to help them do it knowing they are no good...

But hope my little story make you think that you are more able than my parent and aunt...

glad to hear that you made it home OK. pulling over on the shoulders of freeways can be very dangerous, especially at night. there was this young woman, who had a flat tire while driving the L.A. freeways at night. she supposedly pulled over and went to inspect the flat tire (driver side), when she was struck by a big rig. she was tossed in the air, and ran over several times by other cars on the freeway. my friend saw the whole thing, as she swerved to not hit the body. always keep in mind that big rigs cannot swerve on a whim like you can in passenger cars.

Be grateful this didn't happen here in south Florida. Here, you would have been robbed/raped/murdered, (your choice), by a band of roving illegal aliens from Cuba/Colombia/Haiti, (your choice).
Then, to add insult to injury, some prick from New York would have sued you for being on the side of the road during his drive on I-95 and slowing down his commute.

At what???? Life?... You have some displaced anger issues you need to look at my friend...

Its life.... S... Happens

 

[Kntx]

Heheh, that's allways the way it happens. A friend of mine once ran out of gas (at 3 am) we pushed his bastard of a car 5 kilometres. Just as we were pushing it into the gas station some guy asks if we need a ride somewhere.

Damn dood, how was he to know?

 

[EvanFerguson]

[Kueay]

Hmm, a flat tire on the driver side. Your fatass MAY have cause it to blow, something to think about...

<< People commute from New York to south Florida?? Wow!! >>


HAHA! Would that it were! Unfortunately, they come south and make it their home. Amusing thing is, whenever one of these morons is asked their reasons for moving to Florida, inevitably the answer is, always,
&quot;I had to get away from NY.&quot; Hey, asshole, Florida
is NY, with more humidity and bigger roaches!

I wasnt mad at the guy who pulled over, infact I thought htat was pretty nice of him. I was mad at the friggin luck I have that someone would pull over when I was done. Iwasnt goin to go apesh!t on him, just throw a regular ol temper tantrum.


I am all better now, all calm and am able to accept that sh!t happens, I was just mad then and need to rant.

Thanx 4 listening.
