Default pretty bad day

so it rains today over here (los angeles, CA)
and going home, stop and go on the streets
and my car f'n dies in the middle of the street
everyone is honking at me, yelling, etc and im
there laughing in my car, well laughing in frustration
and no one seems to be in a helping mood so im
sitting there until a cop pulls up and he then tells
me he cant help push my car cuz he might get hurt.
but luckily a guy helps me and we push the car off
of the street into a parking lot where i wait for another
20 minutes for someone to jump my car..

not a very good day at all

Not many people like to lend a helping hand anymore. When my clutch cable snapped, 2 FEMALES had to help me push my car. Go figure...

ive been in worse

goin down the highway doin 80 with music blasting.. killed the battery. coasting at 80 mph in traffic no power steering.

i had karma that day though cause i was right infront of a toll and some crew guys gave me a jump.

another time i was in my monte carlo in a snow storm and out of no where ZOOOOOM car goes sideways im just like AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

didnt know what to do so i just floored it and the car caught some traction and i went into a median. again, karma was with me cause a tow truck was probably 15 cars behind me and gave me a free tow. i had no AAA or anything.

anyway just figured id share my stories
