And how do you expect him to do that? The buttons are not well marked.
That’s good. If OP can’t find the unlabeled AC button, then this just proves he isn’t a moron. Sometimes, one simply has to NOT be a rocket surgeon.
Panache, I don’t think you’re a masochist, and neither am I.
“Doctor, it hurts when I do this.”
“Then don’t do that!”
It’s Dougie’s AC.
Isn’t that one-armed wrestler? Maybe not, that’d be entertaining.
Your…attempted insult? comment? snark? makes no sense. FYI.
But you still haven’t answered why, in however may years of owning that car, you still haven’t spent 10 minutes just pushing buttons until you get cold air. It’s really not all that tricky to just push buttons until air=cold.
Skype is a little tweeting bird chirping in meadow. Skype is a wreath of pretty flowers which smell bad.
I’m pretty sure Mr. Spock said that.
If the air conditioner is busted, it doesn’t matter how many buttons you push, you won’t get any cold air.
Ten [del]bucks[/DEL] quatloos says he heard Jack Webb deliver that line, and he’s been looking for a chance to use it ever since.
I dunno, I find the prospect of one wrestler profoundly uninteresting.
Even Hulk Hogan?
You who heckle me are not amusing…
What I might want to see is a one-armed paperhanger who has the hives.
Metrolink sent me a schedule for rail service in the Los Angeles area…
Just confirms what I had already observed–no connecting trains from Orange to Norwalk until late afternoon. 
Meh. Ever since we lost Gorgeous George, I can’t say I find any pro wrestler to be real interesting.
What is your fixation with handicapped people in uncomfortable situations?
:Sigh: that’s one of the oldest jokes in the books…:rolleyes:
My Uncle James (never Jim or Jimmy) left one of his arms in France, where he also lost an eye. He was there, voluntarily, helping to secure freedom so that fools like you could make stupid jokes. He returned to the US to his carpentry job (paperhanging would likely have been impossible with only one arm, urticaria not withstanding).
the more I read this thread (not a particular follower of dougie) the more I was thinking along the same lines
I knew that the paperhanger cliché appeared in my Ripley book. I looked. Sure enough, it was there–on Page 215. (Original publication date, 1931). The man, named Albert J. Smith, lived in Dedham, Massachusetts. (In the large double volume published in 1946 it appears on Page 164.)
In any case, this was a cliché before I was born.
Which is a pretty obvious reason not to use it. Most of the people who would’ve recognized the cliché are dead now. I’m in my 60s and I never heard it, and if I did, I would’ve asked “What does that have to do with anything we’re talking about?”
Handy advice for Dougie (but really anyone): Pause and ask yourself “Will what I’m saying make sense to this audience, and does it apply to this topic?” The paperhanger* line fails on both counts, so is there a downside to pausing, thinking it over, and saying what you’re trying to another way?
*I had to google “paperhanger”… are there really people who only paste wallpaper? Maybe not, which would explain why it’s an obscure word.
