Re: Comments you hear

I overheard two guys talking about my car. The first guy says "What kind of car is that?" His friend responds "It's an old Subaru, they were like 45 grand but they had a ton of problems with them so they didn't sell very many."

"You got yourself a rare car"... Said the guy at O'Rileys when I asked if he could get me a new set of motor mounts, immediately following "Nope. And we can't order them"... -_-

Re: Comments you hear

i like how the drive through attendant always needs to touch them as if to make sure they are real.
"how did you do that to your windows? was it hard to do?"

My favourite was the kid going "Oh f**k, look at that car." He sounded so confused and even scared as if it was something that should not be.

I've also had someone ask why I had tape on my windows. And a drive-thru bank teller thought the fixed glass was some crazy wind deflector mounted outside the window. And a woman on the Interstate once hollered at me to roll-down the window "just to see how it worked."
