Angry Just a little vent...

Okay so on my way home from work today I'm driving and its pouring down raining..My temp gauge shoots up to wayyyy hot! Well I pull over steam everywhere Pop the hood and theres coolant EVERYWHERE!!! Im like WTF really? this is effing great FML. So I get to looking and I see this pin sized hole in the hose going to IACV just gushing coolant... it was in the most awkward place EVER!!! So I let it cool off i filled it back up with coolant just so I can get home....I was only 8 minutes from my house when this happened... Called my Bf's Friend and he was like bring it over we'll fix it so I duct taped that damn hole because I wasnt trying to stand in pouring down rain AGAIN already being soaking wet... I get there and he replaced the hose... didn't even let me help gosh...

This little situation really made me angry ONLY because It was pouring down rain and I got completely soaking wet...NO to those of you going to ask Im not posting pics because I didnt take any

I did however save that little bastard of a hose as a souvenir

I really wanted to punch my car in the face if it had one...

That is all.

cars will always break at the least opportune time, its a given lol. At least you noticed it before it overheated too much and then you would have been a LOT more pissed haha

damn it/ ill settle with you at home with a water hose.


oh and ive got a better situation, i was driving my 88 hatch doing 70 on the interstate and it was pooring *** rain and when i got off the off ramp i went to go make a left turn and my lower ball joint snapped, it ripped everything off my car and fubar'd the fender and ripped my cv axle out. so i get out the car and while im jacking the front end up off the ground a cop pulls up and says "are you ****ing stupid to change a tire in the middle of the road "" i blew some steam at him.... and he left. so i jacked the car up and put what was left of my lower ball joint back into socket and clamped it with some vice grips and pushed it home in the rain
