Funny!

(27,670 posts)I learned how to fix many things on a car because of this, and I detest working on cars with a passion. It's gross. Being female and LGBT is a double whammy for me, as you can probably imagine.
The kid who used to change my oil for $10 labor was killed in a car wreck on Halloween. So I had my oil changed at one of those chain oil places, and now my exhaust system is loose. Did they jack me? I don't know. Maybe. Point is, I can't trust anybody but good back yard mechanics, and I need a new one.
I'm not outraged, a lot of those things are spot on and funny, except that I can probably (unfortunately) fix cars better than you.

Laughter is the best medicine, as the saying goes.

You will ALWAYS run into the humor-impaired Liberal.
Met them EVERY TIME we were trying to change things for the better.
It seems like a... "As long is there is one starving child on the planet, I will not smile or laugh." sort of mentality.
Besides being ultimately frustrating, and unhealthy... IT DOES NOT HELP "THE CAUSE".
They may feel quite above the rest of the rabble, but they sure ain't OF the rabble, which makes me wonder just how their way of thinking, helps ANYONE... especially the rabble.
I think they tend to use social movements to pad the personal resumes of themselves.
