So I finally got my power steering fixed. Now I just need $900 to get my transmission to stop leaking.

It's a sad, sad day when someone has a car they can't fix themselves. But alas, this is the world we are delving into, what with the throw-away mindset producers and manufacturers seem to have.

If the manufacturers make something that the consumers can fix themselves, then they would stop making money.

I'm not saying that the users fix it themselves...just making things possible to fix. Modern caaars no longer have mechanics to look at them, but technicians. They just determine what part of the car is wrong and replaces it. There's no art of fixing things anymore, only replacement.

i swear i have the most shite car in the world.
I have a 1970 honda civic that's beaten the **** up, with dents and rust covering up most of the black paint job. It has no air conditioning, i bought it for about $50 because the guy i wanted it from was basically offering it for free but i got him to install a stereo system so i can listen to metal and sh**. If any of y'all have a crappier rustbucket than that then you win a cookie.

[Incredirobotwars]

Mine isn't rusty, but it's a year older and cost £500. No air-con, stereo system, or...engine, at the moment.

[Enigm@]

*sigh*
tomorrow's me mum's birthday.. ever since she died that day's always been the the bane to my existence. I basically become a mix between a sociopath and someone with OCD and stay in my room the entire time making no human contact.
OCD because i have to clean my room...multiple times..
so yeah, feels bad man
i know it's something deep-rooted, but i don't want to go to a shrink because the last time i went to one he said that being in my condition that i'm a sociopath and have no compassion for humanity and that it'd be best to just let me go..
I was 14 at the time.

Psychiatrists usually don't know sh** and are Incredibly unhelpful.

hillman superminx bich. Got it for about £100 but it has nothing in it. No stereo, air conditioning, it leaks a hell of a lot and it stinks of sh**. It was meant to be red but it isn't anymore. lucky me that's gonna be my new car apparently.


oh and my laptop's wifi died for some reason, it shows the connection BUT NOTHING HAPPENS DAMMIT

Dude, I'm sorry to hear that. That must be hell for you.

I can't ride a bike.

I can ride one, but I always fall off at some point. Besides, I prefer walking because it gives much more freedom as to where you can go.

I have only fallen off a bike four times. One of those times I nearly broke my leg and arm. I fall over all the time walking and It hurts more if you fall over walking I feel. I prefer cycling anyways.

I've always hurt myself more on a bike. The worst time I've hurt myself whilst walking was when people on bikes tripped me into a large patch of nettles.

Nettles?  Good God, that must have stung!

Yeah, face, hands, arms, and the bottom of my legs, and I still had a bit left to walk. I suppose it will teach me to wear trousers that are short at the legs, have my blazer in my bag because of warmth, and be wearing a short sleeved shirt (school uniform sucked ass).

[Philippa]

Poor you.

Anyways, I said I'd organise it and I did.

[That Robot is a Spy!]

Yeah, J will win.

[Chaosmancer]

Bet NFX beats me, because honestly, I reckon that there's going to be less than 20,000 results for 'Chaosmancer'. Although I reckon J will win overall because of the fact that it is a single letter which is likely to have several results, probably somewhere in the region of 9-10million, I would guess.
