OH GOD. The jack F***** SUCKS MONKEY D***! (I've had my experiences)

I had a flat tire the first week I had my car and had a spare in the trunk. So I broke out the jack and TRIED reading the directions with little luck. I eventually thought I figured it out, cracked loose the lugnuts and secured the jack to the car. I then started to turn the handle when I started thinking, "wow, this is a really cool jack - look how FAST I can jack the car up. So I'm whalin the car up in the air and I hear a creaking sound and think, "oh ****...." Then, WABAM the jack just slides right under it and luckily just the suspension took the impact.

I then said, "wow, F*** this........." and tightened the nuts. I drove home on the flat ........luckily I wasn't a fan of the chrome wheels that came on the car.
