You’d be surprised how many idiots can’t even do a simple oil change, or in the above case, too immature to do their damn job because somebody poked their vag. the wrong way, that’s just ridiculous. ---

Real bright. you forgot to mention the part about throwing ice cubes at cars while he worked at delta sonic too. sounds like your sooo badass man! theres no need to be an e-thug, i highly doubt that you do these things that your saying. theres a difference in thinking about vandalizing/ripping off a customer and actually doing it. personally i just think your blowing hot air and nobody here is amused. i think your amused by watching everyone get worked up over your bs. How far off am i there? yes it is kind of creepy that i know all of that about you. but its only because your and IDIOT. ---
