New twist on an old standard today.
Me: "Also, I'll need some spark plugs"
Parts guy: "Okay, what year?"
Me: "1999 Jeep"
-- wait for it --
Parts guy: "Heh, you Jeep guys! Wrangler?"
-- told you so --
Me: "Cherokee"
And he clicked the right one, didn't even pause over Grand. Weeeeeiiiird

"No is didn't"

"Its cuz the green is covered in mud..."

FTW?
Why would you say that? I would have broke your ****ing nose.
I mean, if you really were arrogant enough to say that, how did you not know that this wasn't this guys way of complementing your 'big tires'? Would a simple "Yes, it does great." have been too difficult for you?
Now, had he walked up and said "Hey, *******! How does that piece of **** Jeep pull those bald *** tires?" Then you would have been right to respond with your brilliant comment.
I'd guess you're full of it.

i guess i should have put that in there. when i was posting. i was starting to get a little pissed about it.
i live 70 north of dallas tx on lake texoma. basicly on the boarder of ok and tx. we get freaks from both side of the river. the city i live in tour down the first free public school texas to put up a freakin wallgreens. it was built in the late 1800's. that goes to show you where my city priorities are.
like it sayes in my sig. i'm a third gen. my grandfather had a *****'s which my mom learned to drive and drove to school and back. i take all "jeeps" to hurt. even the not so jeeps. so, when somebody starts talking crap about jeeps. i get kind of pissed and sometime put my own foot in mouth.
