(Not that I’m implying the OP’s SO deserved what \*she \*got; just that the clip might not be totally applicable) ---

> [@Chefguy](#): > > Many years ago I caught a couple of kids **writing in the dust on my car** (at first I thought they were either tagging it or scratching the paint). I could see them through the fence slats, so I quietly opened the sliding door, tiptoed across the patio, jerked open the gate and grabbed one of them. The other kid took off. I gently (he was about 12) plastered his ass against the car, holding him by the shirt front, leaned down to within inches of his face, put on my “war face”, and snarled something along the lines of “If I ever see you or your shitbird little friend near my car again, I’m going to beat the shit out of you (a bluff of course) and then call the cops. If I even hear of someone else’s car being messed with, I’m going to assume it’s you little fuckers, and I’m calling the cops. UNDERSTAND?” He was really scared; I’m surprised he didn’t piss himself. > > It was very satisfying. Round here, if a car is dusty enough to see the words it’s de-rigeour to write clean me in the dust ---

I woke up one morning to drive my wife to work and on going out to our pale blue/white Ford Capri discovered that someone had painted “FUCK” in 2 foot high black letters down the driver’s side. Having no immediate way to get it off we had to drive to the hospital like that. I then drove to the garage across the road. The guy there suggested getting it off with petrol (gas) and it worked instantly. A quick wash and rinse and the car was as good as gold. ---
