    categorizing everyone into a pseudo-objective 1-10 attractiveness scale and saying “depressed is good!..but only fun depressed [whatever tf that means]” … is a red fucking flag

    yea i know it’s a joke.

    but is it really?

        why do i keep seeing check engine lights being associated with dating? like girls seem to always use it to describe a guy who has acceptable flaws.

    Who decides who’s a 7 though? Maybe others think I’m a 10 on a good day, and a 1 on a depressed day. Maybe I’ll just want to lay in bed and cry and eat fried chicken. Maybe the next day I’ll want to fuck Halle Berry and Angelina Jolee. You know Angelina would SO be down for face-sitting, and I bet Halle gives one nervous mediocre blowjob, where she’s not quite sure what she’s doing, but she’s hot so nobody is complaining.

    And maybe by Friday I’ll want to walk down the streets naked eating nachos. But fuck it’s too cold out there! Mr Winky would shrink! I wouldn’t even NEED to be in the pool!

    What were we talking about?

        $80 to buy the scanner yourself and never have to drive a mile down the road to have another undertrained cashier tell you your O2 sensor died again.

        If I never see another P0134 I’ll die happy.

          Ha! My dad has two because he couldn’t find the first one until immediately after buying the second one. I have one because he couldn’t find either of them when I asked to borrow one.

          And the circle of life continues.

      Why not? Not everyone has the money or knowledge/tools/time to fix it, and that’s ok. Sometimes fixing it costs more than the car itself (e.g. when Prius gets its factory cat stolen).

      Also, what if the person doesn’t have a car at all?

    Damn sign me up.

    Does it count if my truck’s check engine light came on but it got fixed because I figured out the gas cap wasn’t screwed on tight enough?
