Them days where not a f***ing thing works out...

[CM Dazz]

Looks like today's going to be one of 'em for me. At least that's how its been since 5 am. f***in shit.

Anyway, when's the last time you had a shitty, f***ed up day? I'm not talking about where you get some bad news or something & it ruins your day. I'm talking where your car won't start, you're late for work, you spill coffee all over yourself, you shit your pants, someone steals your lunch, you get fired, you get into an accident on the way home, you're locked out of your house, you don't have money to pay the locksmith, you burn your dinner, you find pictures of your gf/bf banging another dude/chick in your own bed, the gun jams...?

Now, let me be clear about two things: 1. My above scenario has never happened, it's an exaggeration. 2. There is NO need for "You ok dude? You need to talk? Go talk to someone." bullshit. I didn't make this thread for attention or support, it's just that I can't use my normal stress relief right now, which is to scream F************* YOU MOTHERF****************ER over & over, because the wife doesn't get up for another 10 minutes. If I wake her up 10 minutes before the alarm....

So, with that being said, when's the last time the world pissed in you Cheerios?

Pretty much 2013.

Like 2 weeks ago. Started off slow; hit every single red light driving around, forgot my umbrella and it of course started downpouring while I was out.

Driving home around 7 pm, decided "F it, I do not feel like cooking tonight." and stopped to grab something to take home. Ran over a screw in the parking lot, as I'm pulling into the garage my check engine light comes out. Get out and hear a "HISSSSSS" from air rapidly leaking out. Have to call AAA to fix the tire, woman on the phone says "Oh we don't do that anymore, we'll either put on a spare or tow you to a garage." At this point all garages are closed and I'm convinced AAA does patch tires, but I just say "Fine send a guy to put the spare on.".

They send some half drunk guy who doesn't have a clue what he's doing. Takes an hour and a half before he shows up, then he just kind of stares at the tire, as if it's some alien piece of technology. Finally gets the spare put on.

At this point I realize in the stress of the tire thing I left my food in the car. So I'm stuck microwaving food that wasn't THAT good to begin with, eating it around 10 pm, then going to bed right away. Crap day for sure.

For future reference, if you're able to change the tire yourself, or drive it there, Discount Tire fixes tires for free. Not many people know that, & it's done as a goodwill gesture so you tell other people. The thought is that it will bring in customers through word of mouth. Bad reviews travel fast, & since good reviews are passed on much less often, it's a smart business decision on their part. Hell, this right here is exactly what they want to happen.

They also match, & maybe even beat (not sure) prices on new tires, so you're guaranteed to always get the cheapest price.

FYI, I do not, nor ever have worked for Discount Tire. Just a satisfied customer.


If you don't know how to change a tire, & I mean no offense intended, learn! It's easy to do, & will save you time & money!
