Default What Do You Do When Your Vette Is Done?

I know, I know they're never done, but what if it is?

Should I try and blow it up and start over?

Hey - you're not even close to fini ... despite how nice your vette is.
What to do ... I say sidepipes and flares.

Funny - I didn't realize you were into swimming female dogs.

I say is one.

I should have said cleaning your fire wall is one.

I said is one to be less of a command and make it seem more suttle. But I guess im stupid as ****.(Quoted from above I did not curse)

And you called me a loser? Is that you in your avatar?

Do you wax your eyebrows?
