well back to topic..... i got a detention at school because i parked on a snow drift. it was a "dangerous hazard to the other vehicles around me" which btw was no one but 2 dumpsters and a broken down prius 8 spots over.
I was riding in my buddy's xj and a bad storm had hit a little while earlier...some trees lay in the middle of the road. A guy who lived right by the trees was out directing traffic to turn around. He waves us down and says "son I think you're gonna have to turn around and just follow these other cars... They're all going back and around another way."
Needless to say we didn't take his advice...

off topic- at least nobody was called a ****
on topic- i brought a friend out to the stix and told him to put on his seatbelt and he basicly called me a badname and didnt put it on, about the third time his head hit the top , he got the idea

It actually happened to me today! I walked in with the old battery and said I needed a new battery for my 2001 Cherokee Sport, 4.0. He gave me a battery for a Grand. When I called him on it, the kid that was half his age started laughing at him from behind the counter.
That was priceless!
