The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working

well that was Jasen's car so maybe it's just all Nick's fault
 
I'm not talking about that, although that was definitely the deer's fault.

Did you not see my picture from Friday on Facebook?
 
Got nailed by a chunk of tire this morning on the turnpike:

The lady made absolutely no effort to miss it. I even tried to avoid where I thought her car was going to launch it. I guessed wrong. I just cleaned my car too :(

(cryhard)

Damnnnn dude!! I hate when that s*** happens, and there's really no way to avoid it. Hopefully the marks will come off. Is there any other damage, or just cosmetic?
 
Luckily it just looks like scuffs at this point. I'm going to clean it off when I get home. I'm glad it missed my fog light though.
 
That's no good. How'd that happen?

It was the start to my wonderful weekend at home in PA. Leaving a section of road construction at the 315/70 interchange down here in Columbus. The road was littered with those hard rubber construction cone holder. Minivan in front of me ran over one and it slammed right into the front of my car. Paint is cracked from headlight to headlight. Already peeling off too. :)
 
Omfg getting pretty steamed. Some little b**** on craigslist has basically been harassing me, trying to get me to sell the Miata for 500$. He said he saw another one for 400$ when mine was listed for 1500$, so I told him to buy the other one.

Him: "I could bring you $500 cash for it today."

Me: "Try again with a serious offer."

Him: "With a serious offer? Have you checked the blue book on your car? In your condition your sitting on a value of about $1100. Thats for a car that has everything working on it with no rust or bodywork needed. Good luck selling it. Hopefully you get what you are looking far. Just remember it is a 20 year old car with high mileage. Take care"

Me: "Yeah, a serious offer. I already turned down a guy that offered twice what you did. If you see what the other Miatas on Craigs are going for, you'll know what I mean. I dunno if you're new to buying used cars, but KBB doesn't mean much with stuff that old. Now, if you can come up with 1200, that's the best I'll do."

Him: "I know what they are going for on craigslist. I just viewed one this morning that is going for $400. Same exact car just in white instead. I think your car is in better shape, but he asking significantly less. At the end of the day, the car is only worth what somebody is willing to pay and from what you have said, nobody else has said I will be there with X amount of cash. Either way, take care a good luck. When you are done dealing with clowns that wont show, let me know."

Me: "So buy the Miata for 400$ and stop wasting my time. If you ever get it together and decide to pay the 1200$ that my Miata is worth, we can talk. Until then, you're one of the craigslist 'clowns'. Have a nice day. ;)"

Him: "Your missing the whole point, your car is not worth $1200. You can wish for it to be as much as you want, but at the end of the day, your car is still going to be sitting in your driveway while you starve because you desperately need the cash. By the way, it is going to be hard to sell the car when it keeps getting flagged and removed. Wink to that ;)"

Me: "I'd burn the Miata in a 1200$ bonfire before I sold it to you."

Fuggin trolls errywhere.
 
nice, I like how he assumes you desperately need the cash cause you are starving
 
i like buttmad, which i believe is opposite of butt jelly (from chippy's cookout)
 
lulz. I don't like butt jelly either.

That ad is hilarious though. I hope you can sell it soon, Wes.

And Nate, sorry to hear about the break in. But glad they didn't get away with any of yours or Ambers stuff.
