Your bunny is showing.
Oh, I get it. I saved a couple hundred bucks on these stupid low pro tires over local shops (all small independents), which is more than I can really afford to walk away from. The shop a mile away had no problems mounting them and provided great service. Next time, when the cost savings are minimal, they'll get all the business. They even talked me into an alignment.....Quote:

Dude you spoke to at the shop probably agrees with you and that's why he wanted to put you on with the owner, whose bright idea the policy probably is.
My America’s Tire has gone way overboard for me before, but they can’/won’t order the only Winter tires I can find for my little rig (185R/14). But they happily have mounted the last many sets for me. And, yes, they get other business from me.
Tried to order a full set of winter tires through my car dealership; they would order the front but not the rear (different size), but were happy to mount the rear tires I brought in after procuring them on Tire Rack. Good service but weird ordering policy.
They allegedly put a man on the moon 50 years ago but they can't make a tire that doesn't wear out.
Maybe if they put the tire on the moon it wouldn't wear out?
One thing that I miss about Kalifornia is being able to go to any Mexican-operated tire store and having virtually any service performed for a reasonable fee.
Repair this flat? No problemo.
Mount these tires I bought online? No problemo.
Do a valve job? No problemo.
Fuck your sister? No problemo.
I certainly miss those places.

We call those the 40mph-ers. Danno knows the type. They're from VT. They do 40 no matter where.Quote:

Except Buster referred to 45-60 zones, which doesn't compute for Vermont.
Doing OK from the injuries although I've lost a lot of strength from inactivity. Gonna have to start working harder. Thanks for asking.Quote:

I do a long backwoods roll that can be great, but once in a while I get stuck behind one of these: 40 mph in the 45 zone, 40 mph through the 35 to 25 little weedy little town zones.
I wanna lick your donut.Quote:

Google maps tells me to go north, turn left. Except north is right. Then it tells me to go west turn right, but right is east.
Walking the dog, pass a 30 something guy, long hair, beard. I say "evening". He says "whatever." Guess I might as well go back to being my usual antisocial self.
whatever....
