First of all, let’s review some history…I’ve had terrible luck when it comes to cars.
My first car was a used 87 Mustang sedan that leaked oil and had ominous electrical problems.
My second car was a 95 Dodge Neon that ran so great, I wound up keeping it for five years, despite the fact that it put a crimp in my sex life…a guy driving a Neon is less likely to get laid than a guy who just got released from prison, I have found.
My third car was a 2001 Mustang, almost brand-new. I had it for about a year before some piece-of-shit lowlife Snoop Dogg lookalike in a stolen car hit me head-on and utterly destroyed it.
I’d like to find that fucker right now and shove toothpicks into his eyeballs, but he’s serving a 20-year sentence in a federal pen (he was on the run from the cops for various other crimes when he collided into me).
My replacement for this car was a brand-spanking-new 2002 Mustang, 16 miles on the odometer. I was overjoyed when I bought it; it was technically the first new car I’ve ever owned. Beautiful color too, mineral grey.
I’ve had this car for six months. In hindsight, I realized I was due for one of Fate’s inevitable assfucks.
I was driving in fairly mild traffic last Sat. when I suddenly felt a slight bump on the right hand side of my car, that sort of alarming tap you get during very mild fender-benders. I looked over my shoulder and saw…
…well, what did I see? Surely she was a member of the human race, though I now doubt it.
It was a hugely obese, skanky, horrifically ugly woman driving a crappy red minivan. Apparently she had been trying to merge into my lane, and I guess she just overlooked the fact that I was driving alongside of her.
I pointed to the side of the road, indicated that she should pull over so we could exchange insurance info…and then I pulled in front of her, drove about 50 feet, stopped, put the hazards on, and looked in my rear-view…
…only to see that she wasn’t behind me.
I looked over into the traffic. She had merged over into the farthest lane and was slowly accelerating…glancing at me the entire time. In the passenger seat was a equally fat but much younger woman I’d assume was her daughter. I caught a glimpse of several children in the backseat, undoubtedly misbegotten and doomed spawn who have a life of misery and human failure to look forward to.
*She’s fucking driving away! * I thought madly.
But the traffic progress was so slow (there was a intersection ahead, and the light had just turned green, so everybody was just starting to go) that I jumped out of my car. Even in the farthest lane, she was only about 40 feet away, and I craned my neck to get a good look at her license plate…
AND SHE DIDN’T HAVE A FUCKING LICENSE PLATE!
I watched as she sped away. She kept looking over her shoulder at me with an expression that fearful.
“YOU GODDAMNED FUCKING FAT BITCH!” I screamed.
I knew I was screwed. Even if I jumped back in my car, the traffic was so thick and slow that by the time I jumped back into the flow, she’d be gone. I drove home instead, and filed a proper report with the police. Later, I went out and got extremely drunk and rather nasty with people who tried to sympathize.
The damage? Two small dents above the right back wheel. No loss of paint, but pulling the dents (which are right on a crease) will cost about 500 bucks.
But why do these people BREED? This gigantic, glanduar-disadvantaged whore is going to begat many gigantic, glandular-disadvantaged spawn who will use their short, pathetic lives to talk aloud in movie theatres, harrass gas station attendents, collect welfare, serve prison sentences for drug usage, and drive away from car accidents.
Or maybe it’s just me. Considering my track record, perhaps I should give up the idea of owning a Mustang, and buy a Jetta instead?
