Today a born again christian told me there is no such thing as luck seeing as you can't hold it or touch it; I've never laughed so hard in my life and he couldn't figure out why I was laughing.

I just realized today I'm changing. There are new and unusual feelings and urges. I don't think I'm becoming a homosexual, but something else, something worse. Let me explain.

So today I was driving into Super Target, there was a volleyball team car wash. Girls with tank tops and those sweet spandex shorts. I parked sort of nearby maybe 100 ft. away. So a few of the girls ran over and we're saying, "Cute car. Let's wash it, pleaaase! Five dollars!" I politely declined. Even if I like to look at high school girls, and I do, I do not like talking to them, plus I was running behind at work. So just then one of the girls just starts washing the rear quarter panel, before rinsing the car! Worse yet, she's using a bath towel, that just one minute ago was lying on the hot asphalt. There could be dirt in there! The dumb bitch, with the nice ass, could scratch the Miazda! I was like, "What the HELL are you doing!!!" She jumped back as I checked for scratches. All three girls were pretty taken aback. I don't know what's wrong with me. Then it hit me. . .

I'm a petrol-sexual.

They will be talking about you later. Not in the right way, though.

no you're not...I like highschool girls as much as the next guy, but as soon as they scratch my car they better start to run

on a related note I stupidly opened the boot of the car while the garage door was closing. I am now one scratch richer images/smilies/cry.gif

Forgetting Sarah Marshall is an awesome movie. Note to any ladies out there: I have never and will never wear sweatpants.

Not lounging around on my lazy ass for a week straight, though, that's not something I can guarantee.

Maybe if you didn't refer to yourself as LurkerPatrol then they wouldn't be so condescending. images/smilies/tease.gif

Speaking from experience, people who work in university housing are vicious archdemons. Thus, they'll act accordingly. The only way to deal with these hellspawn (kidnapping their families won't work, as they have no soul) is to speak to them in a polite, yet stern and menacing manner. This confuses their empathy circuits within their grotesquely misshapen bespectacled heads and causes minor chest palpitations as their vile consciousnesses gain a small, shimmering sense of purpose. When speaking, make sure you impart the sign that you can destroy them at any moment, unsheathing the Sword of Gabriel and the forces of Heaven to do battle against Beezlebub's minions in the Student Housing department. Blood may be shed, but it's a minor sacrifice in getting out of a split double with a freshman slob who doesn't believe in shampoo.

Edit: pff, thanks for nothing. images/smilies/dry.gif
