Why I love highschool (Mostly for auto mechanics)

#1

Post by KSDbass »

I went to visit colleges with one of my friends, and on the way back a girl I know calls me. It's well known at my school that I'm good with cars, so it made sense that she called me, because her car wouldn't start. Now this isn't just any girl, she's one of the dumber people at my school. I'm not being mean, that's just the way it is.
So she calls me, and wants me to tell her why her car won't start, as if all I needed to know was that her car won't start to fix it. I ask her what happens when she turns the key, and she told me "It makes a bad noise, like I'm forcing it to start."
I asked her what mechanic she took it to, and she told me her dad was friends with some shop in Lawrenceville that doesn't charge them labor. So jokingly I told her to make sure the Flux Capacitor had enough plutonium, and she said that neither she nor her dad had any idea what that was but they'd tell the mechanics.
I took that and ran with it, which was the point of this post.
I had her check the Blinker Fluid level (But I wasn't sure where it was on her car, so I couldn't help her find it.)
I told her to make extra sure the Kanoodler Valve wasn't stuck shut. (Again, not sure about it's placement.)
I also told her to tell the mechanics to check the muffler bearings, because that wasn't something she could check in her driveway.

Sparknotes: Dumb girl called me asking why her car wouldn't start. I told her to tell the mechanics to check the Blinker Fluid Level, kanoodler valve, and muffler bearings.

Ending? I'm heading over to the shop to re-shim the starter. :D

Edit: For clarification, the towtruck was already on it's way when she called, she was just wondering. The mechanics were also in on the joke.

I was planning on it, they're currently sitting right next to my left handed screw-drivers.

Hopefully you help her out in the end. Practical jokes are cool, but taking advantaged of someone in need for your own amusement is not something that will help you once you get out of highschool.

Wow...
This might get me some bad rep on the forums but I have to say it:

You are a gigantic *** hole. If you did infact act that way, and then you come on the forums telling us how big of a *** you were, and how dumb this girl was.
Its like WTF? dude.

Are you posting this so we know how big of a douche you can be? Really whats the point here?

I know im being a troll here; But what is the point of you acting like that. Its not funny. Its not amusing or entertaining. Your not proving how smart you are about cars. Your just being a douche bag.

Have a little respect and courtesy for people.

Sorry, But its true. Block me if you want.
