LMAO! That totally caught me off guard. Thanks, now I have to clean Valentine’s Day cookie and coffee off my desk. Read more

Not going to read the comments, but I’d bet 90% of the comments here are some version of “Ghostbusters Charlie Angels Blah blah blah how’d that work out?” thinking they’re very clever

Reading the comments ... you fucking men boys are terrible. I’m surprised half of you find anyone to fuck you. Is there really no room in your imaginations for someone who doesn’t look like you to be centered, to have a story, to have a background that was interesting?

I mean seriously, what can’t this thing do? Read more

Yeah I’m weird like that and document every thing with this current car I own. Yes that is a huge stack of receipts dating back 3 and a half years in that little book of mileage.

Great post Kristen. This happens more than you’d know. I’ll give a specific anecdote. Back when I was a service writer one of my customers called me to ask for assistance.
