Last night my fiance and I were at the bank finalizing financing for my new car, and while we were there, someone put a basketball sized dent in our other car’s bumper, left us lots of nice scuffs and scratches to go with it, and then didn’t bother to leave a note or wait for us to come to the car.
I hope you have a hell of a lot more damage than our car, you inconsiderate jackass. I hope your car breaks down today.

Could be worse, a friend of mine drove her brand-new car down from Ontario for a visit, and someone smashed the shit outof the door… they left a note, but the phone number was fake. Coloured her perception of Nova Scotia, definitely… except that she was initially pleasantly surprised by the note…
My friend and I were traveling in his brand new car when a man in a truck threw open his driver’s door just as we were passing him. It wiped out the side mirror that cost over $1000 to fix (automatic adjustment, defrost, etc.). When we backed up to get his insurance, he took off. We didn’t even get a chance to get his license plate number.
I bought a brand new car. It only took three weeks for someone to smack me and take off.
Which is why I never pay more than $2,000 for a car. Someone dings it, who gives a fuck.
Only suckers buy new cars off the lot.
Well……until the crash of 2008………
they look pretty tempting at today’s prices.
Hmmm….gimmi a lick…
