Land of the Stupid and the Plenty
OK, after being the nice cordial kind gentleman I am, I got a flat tire after being so kind as to drive a female friend home since it was so late. Bammm flat tire (no spare tire) and $300 to replace. Sooooo what do I do? Less than 2 weeks later, being the kind but misguided gentleman I am, I drive someone home (since it was dangerous late at night) and on the way home, this time BAMMM 2 flat tires ($300 each). Yes TWO. And one of them was the one I JUST replaced w/ only like 10 miles on it. Let me illustrate driving late at night stupidity:
Photo1: The way a normal person should do. Avoid pothole. Move arms on steering wheel.
Photo2: A gentleman w/ honour tired from driving someone in distress not paying attention to road. Lazy to move arms, BOTH wheels on same side hit same pothole and causes double damage.
Now, here is the conundrum. What the hell is a guy supposed to do? Be an ass and not take her home?, or being a nice guy and (at the rate i’m going) spend $900/month on tires. Sadly nice guys do finish last arghhh. For that money I could have booked a room at the Astoria, lavish a girl w/ all the amenities and get like a free lobster to boot (and pillow mints). Some say being in a relationship takes its toll, but single guy wining/dining antics are just as costly.
oh and btw: Not having spare tires, and driving flat tires in a tunnel at 10 miles per hour really pisses people off. People would say 4 letters words to me on the left side as I cowardly hid my torso as low as I could (I looked like a blind midget just hovering above the windshield horizon)
and the Reward
Looks like once in a while you get a windfall. One of my friend’s father used to own a video store and closed it down. As a result she gave the entire collection of the video store (they closed the store like 4-5 years ago). So I have probably every damn movie in the 90s.
I have more movies than those poor people have zits on the Proactive anti-acne commercials. Does anybody want to come over and help me watch? I am nice, I am kind, I will provide popcorn and refreshments. Bring ur friends. I am fun I am a hoot. Just don’t let me watch alone haha. Let me know what movie you want to see and I’ll check the database (floor). But I’m not sure if I can afford to drive you home….

oh and if u want a cheesy movie I probably won’t watch, just ask, u can probably have it for free.

Hey what a coincidence. I had a flat tire on friday afternoon but I had a spare. The only worse thing is I changed the spare in the rain.
hahaha, nice database. be a gentleman and lie that u left the car at home, and sell those movies at blockbusters to buy new tires
awh.. no more exciting drives home from jeff.. your rides home were always fun..
lol. the only difference between your driving and the video games is that there are no flat tires and $900 expenses.
dude… mebbe u need to improve ur driving skillz? =X
awwwww…. drop them off far away from their home like someone did to me at 4am once? hehehe.
i’m so afraid i’ll get a flat tire cuz it’s like..one of those things you can’t control. if you drive 6 mos with bad brakes like i did..at least you know your brakes are bad but the tire thing can come out of no where.
those are some pretty damn expensive tires you bought too.
i love the organisation you’ve got going on with the movies..the floor does it best.
sorry to hear that. but you are a gentleman.
aiyah!! $300 for a tire?? U poor thing. Don’t u have AAA? Hmm…movies eh? I’m sure there’s a lot of movies I missed in the 90′s.

hmm i want pretty women! can i have that ??????
dumass. driving a girl home late at night does not give you flats. you should be a better driver and avoid potholes. mmmkay??? +KiSS+
you going to the BBQ on saturday? if you are, can you give me a ride? we can avoid potholes together and since it’s broad daylight, we can see them! =P
rambling… isn’t that what xanga is for??
you will still get good karma for being a fantabulous friend.
