Why where you picking it up instead of your gopher? You do have people to do that stuff for you, don't you?

What a bunch of whiners.

My i8 threw a 2 codes last night. I had to take it to the $tealership without an appointment which meant waiting for an extra 6 minutes. THEN, they didn't have a loaner at first which tacked an extra 5 minutes to my wait because they had to get a vehicle from the sales department.

If you think that's bad, they just called me and told me that there are no spark plugs in the are for the i8 so they had to order them which will take a day or 2.

This means I'm driving a refrigerator white, 535i. It's ok, I guess, but it's no i8.

You'll be happy at least an hour ahead of them, no? Plus, you already bought several rounds for everyone, but just had to drink them before ice melted. . . #WINNING

Me going to work today.

"Maybe I'll drive the M3 today."

Goes outside and sees the M Roadster is blocking it in the garage.

"Oh well, I'll take the M Roadster."

Gets in the M Roadster and sees that it needs gas.

"Well, I guess I'm driving the VW today."

That VW doesn't have red / orange wheels. Debatable whether that was a downgrade. I'm just surprised they're all running.

So you mean we made you want to:
- have better taste
- start trying to date women now

I will consider that a success!

I forgot to check remember me at the Lexus Drivers website. Not only did I have to retype my username and password, but I had to copy/paste the VIN twice.

Ugh. Don't bring that up. I'm going from a $21 fill-up to a $50 fill-up.

I updated my iMac to macOS Sierra today and found the copy/paste between devices to be pretty cool. I can highlight/copy text on my iMac screen and then paste it right into a note on my iPhone, or vice-versa.

But now I can't think of a good reason to do it. I hate cool-but-useless.

Is it a first world problem if you spend your monthly food budget on a tattoo instead and buy a box of ramen noodle?
