Tgis is starting to get on my nerves

I was sleeping, when at 4:30am, a knock on the door. "This is Maintenance; somebody hit your car."


Apparently, this numb nuts was waiting (stalking?) his girlfriend last night. He was out there since 1:30am, according to witnesses. Mr. Drunk Guy apparently fell asleep, his foot slipped off the brake pedal, and pinned my car against a light pole.


And I just got it out of the body shop a month ago, from another numb nuts gas truck driver who backed into the FRONT end.


And you may have seen the pic of my broken leg on an "why drive AT?" thread.


I'm on a real streak lately.

Yup. At least he didn't get away. He was handcuffed in the back of the police car when I got there. I resisted the urge to snap a pic tho.

Hoping you didn't take any lava rocks from the volcanic area. That's bad luck dude. If you did take the lava back. Sorry to hear bout the car and broken leg. Get someone to bless your car. Throw hawaiian salt around your car to take away the evil spirits. I not joking.
