Re: OS Off Topic
Should have had a can of coke with you 
I just had the ****tiest car day...so far in my young life.
First I'm coming back from McDonald's after trying out their southern style chicken sandwich (Yes sir!). I'm about to come out onto a 4 way highway and for some reason I temporarily lost my mind. I drive across it and begin to turn down THE WRONG SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY! Like WTF! I then realize this and pull into the turning lane next to the median (faced the wrong way) to try to get out of the way and avoid an accident. Fortunately there was about 200 yards between me and the next rush of vehicles so I was able to turn out and go across and turn around in a bank. OMG so embarrassing. I can't believe I did that. Wow I'm a moron.
Anyway, on my way back home my rear passenger door comes open on the opposite side of the drivers side and I had laundry in the back. So I had to pull over (and damn near blocked a one-way street which could have resulted in me getting t-boned but I realized this at the last second and moved) and get out and shut that door. Damn.
So I'm like "OK, this sucks. Worst driving day for me. I don't think it can get worse. I'll bounce back! Just like a rough first half! I got this!"
So I'm at the laundromat about to leave and then my car won't start. Me, well, I'm pretty ignorant of automobiles so I pretty much bent over and spread my cheeks. I tried about 10 minutes to get it to start shifting between park and neutral with no avail.
Then I called my dad who pretty much said to do the same thing I had already done so I tried again for another 30 mins with no progress. So I called him back again and he came down 40 minutes later. Turns out there was corrosion on the battery...
So he got it cleaned up and after about 90 minutes of me being parked in front of the laundromat after having all of my clothes done I finally make it back and I'm pretty mad.
