This morning I go to my car and I can’t open the door via the remote. I had to open my door by putting the key in the lock. How archaic! I was scared it would set the arlarm off and wake up *rob*. But thankfully it didn’t.
I put the key in the ‘whatever that slot is called’ to start the jalopy but NOTHING happened. I turned the key several times in the ‘slot’, tried to rev the engine but no response. My battery is dead!!!!!!
I have to now call people to see who is willing to come give me a jump.
Aaarrrggggh, so annoying. If I can’t get anyone in the next hour, I’ll have to take public transportation. Snappy, watch out, I’ll fight you for a seat on the bus.
speaking of beating people up i swear to god i want to beat the janitor over the head with a broomstick these days. i have to order the stupid janitorial supplies, but the order always has to be approved by the bookkeeper because we cant have excessive supply ordering in a recesssion so half the times the supply orders are kinda nixed and i have to deal with the janitor moping around with his big stupid dust mop complaining that we need a new one cuz it’s falling apart. im only allowed to order one dust mop head replacement per month and i have to keep a tally on how many big black trash bags we are ordering, have to keep a running tally of who is taking printer cartridges and have to hide the good pens for special people. gaaaah the life of an office monkey.

Do I have to explain my comment (to everyone apart from Cobby and CGar) or will I forever be known as the “bad fraction guy”?
“pay them to jump you. $10 should do it.”
Didn’t know you were in to cab drivers.
“Also, if you have jumper cables just hail a taxi or a black car and pay them to jump you. $10 should do it.”
DIBS, you’ve been able to get jumped for as little as $10?
Also, if you have jumper cables just hail a taxi or a black car and pay them to jump you. $10 should do it.
ET, a battery just doesn’t go dead in this sort of temperature. There must be a short somewhere or you left your lights on or something.

So DIBS, you prefer a good spanking over being verbally abused? Or do you like both in tandem?

What I really like would not be appropriate discussion even in this format!!!!

I’m curious as to what kind of device runs on this sort of current. Are you using one of those period-appropriate Victorian “stimulators”???
