Default Gotta Vent!

So I finally got my Pewter 2000 Coupe from the body shop last nite (had the Halo painted black) and was so happy with it that I took the other half out to dinner. Had a great dinner BTW and then it happened... came out to my pride and joy to find that some lower than dog s*#t SOB decided he didn't like my military base sticker on my windshield and used his keys to scratch the hell out it. In the process he/she actually gouged the glass they did it so hard. I of course questioned everyone within eyesight if they saw who did it. Of course the individual crawled back into the sewer hole that they came from un noticed. I know this may seem small to some(it could have been worse) but I am so frickn tired of not being able to have something nice anymore because some low life SOB will mess with it.

Thanks for letting me vent

Not a problem considering the circumstances. If you find the culprits you might consider using them as wheel chocks.

Indeed! Mojo for a speedy recovery for your Vette, and hopefully all the bad karma deserved will befall the perpetrator.

No, you're right, it is F'd up...

If Alaska justice works the way I've heard it does, the SOB is very lucky to have gotten away from you... May "he" get what is coming to him. Preferably from an actual animal that will not face jail time.

There is a little thing called KARMA it works. Prey they change, but life it self will teach a bag of sh## to become a bag of goodness.

I am sorry to hear of this. I only took this vette to 2 parking lots that were not car shows.

I never trusted people in my life and have beaten people when caught them. now I don't give them the chance to put me in jail.

You really gotta wonder what the azzoles were thinking!?! "Gee, I don't like war, and this guy has a military base sticker! Maybe if I scratch it all up and wreck his car in the process, he'll stop and think about it, drop out of the military, and adopt the views that I hold!"

They never consider that if it was not for the military they would be speaking German, Japanese, French, or maybe bowing to Mecca five times a day! My personal fantasy punishment for those types would be to push them out of a plane with a parachute - right over Iran or Afghanistan - and let them try to deal with whoever awaits them as they land!

They don't have it so they screw up someone else's. Or they see someone take care of something they really like and mess it up. What we need to do is find out what they value and return the favor. Maybe if a irrate owner put a round or two into them someone would get the message.

SOME PEOPLE CAN BE REAL #@^%*HOLES. I hope the repair goes well for you and that the people who did that to you get what they deserve someday.
