STUPID *&~!@#^$% CAR PROBLEMS!!!

While I was driving home from work last night, my car's "brake" light came on and never shut off. So this morning, I left the car with our local Midas dealership. Got a call back a few hours later that my brake lines had rotted out and that the rear brakes were getting no fluid as a result. The bill would be around $275 and the car would not be ready until late Saturday morning!

So now, on top of having to unexpectedly drop $275 on car repairs, I have to take a taxicab the five miles home from work. Last time I did that was two years ago when my transmission went. At that time, the ride cost me $14. Wonder how much it's gone up in the interim?

Stupid fucking cars.... :argh:

1. 275 bucks to run new lines?
What, are they gonna get 6 guys to pick the car up while one runs the line?

I'll do it for 50.
