I think I could buy a whole new car, stick it in the garage, and my wife wouldn't notice as long as it was a similar color.

I have a couple buddies that were doing that with other things, motorcycles, SXS, ATV's, guns, and when they got caught they just told their wives "oh, I just bought that for you." Didn't go over well

Getting hung up on the details. Like saying "Yeah, yeah, whatever." for mentioning facts.

I didn't have anything better at the moment.

You had me googling Chipawa after you quoted Tcoat. So

Had me thinking there was a sister ship or something that sunk.

I fucking hate it when I do work, and the lazy ones get promoted and all the work I did gets handed to them, further reinforcing how lazy they are.
