ND hates my car!!

[UAL747400]

So I had to park my car in the street last night since there were no more parking spots at my apartment. I come out today to go to class, get in, start it up, go to look in the left mirrior to pull out into traffic and OH MY GOD!!!!!!!! Its SMASHED!!! (I had 174 mad faces, I guess Im limited to 15)

Some low life piece of crap that sucks at life that obviously cant drive worth a crap took my mirror off last night. How do you suck so bad that you cant even judge how wide your damn car is!!!!?? I can judge within inches where the wingtips on a 35 foot wide airplane are tracking over the ground. This person cant even tell where the right side of a 5-6 food wide car is tracking!!!! Good god!

Im just appalled that there is someone out there that sucks THAT BAD! I mean, my mirrors dont stick out very far, so they were that close to totally taking out my the whole left side of my car. This is 17th street by the way. I could dang near be a four lane road.

So whats the count now? One hit and run in the parking lot because theres another person that sucks at life so bad that they cant park their car, an act of vadalism to the left rear trunk area, and now a mirror being taken out by another dumba$$

Wow that seriously sucks. I know how you feel. Some dumbass UND student hit my bumper while backing out (clipped me with their bumper). It will buff out for sure, but some deep scratches will still be there. They were so kind as to NOT leave a note.

North Dakotans' driving abilities are restricted to straight lines.

Speaking of getting hit, someone hit Tugrul's car recently but was nice enough to leave a note!!!

My wifes car got smashed up pretty good in NC, no note, just a bunch of broken glass and paint chips. God damn coasties can't park to save their lives!!!!

[UAL747400]

Its not even that they hit my car thats driving me up the wall. Its that they had absolutely no class whatsoever by not leaving a note.

My god, I went all through highschool with no incidents in the parking lots or on the streets. I even made it all through last year with out any incident. This year for some reason, it seems a lot of people have shoved their heads up their butts. I wasnt even parked on the "S" turn part of 17th, Im on a straight section.

I've made a couple determinations, its white something with mirrors lower than mine. I found quite a bit of wet paint inside the mirror. God I hope my mirror did its job and f#$d up their car REAL good.

Thats funny, I went through High School, ditch hopping, boon dock partying and never had an accident. Bought my first car in college, 2 days old and wammo I merged into someone because I wasn't use to the giant blind spot it has

Yeah earlier this week some guy ran in my car on 6th Ave. I came back from class to a message from the police station. YES I got so worried that the Bimmer was hurt. So I ran to my car and looked, oh it was in good shape to what I was imagining, just scrapes on the side, and a cracked molding, (BMW engineering on toughness)

So then I found a note with the persons number in it and a message. I was so happy he was honest, and actually left a note. There are good people out there. So yeah in turn I just found the cheapest price for a molding, instead of going through insurance crap and being a pain.

Infact I felt like congratulating him and buying him stuff for leaving a note and not running off, but it was still his fault.

North Dakota weather hates mine. I was driving back for the beginning of this semester late at night in an awful storm. It usually takes me 3 hours to get here and that night it took me 6. The roads were sheer ice around Fargo and everybody was going around 30. At one point I pulled off on an exit to check something and when I got out of the car I fell flat on my ass, I literally had to hold onto the car to walk around it. Anyway I get past Fargo and it gets a little better; people are still going around 40 but there are a few of us that are going closer to 60. A little ways before Hillsboro I looked down at my tach and my temperature was at red line. I was right before the rest stop there, so I pulled into the rest stop to check it out. I pop the hood and when I get around to the front of my car I saw that I had about half an inch of ice built up on my tiny grill (I was driving a nissan at the time) and so I wasn't getting any air flow into the engine. So I opened the hood checked my coolant level and started chipping away at the ice on my grill. It took me forever to get it off and then I went inside for awhile to let my car cool down. I come back out, shut the hood, I had left it open so it would cool off faster, and headed back onto the freeway. I was cruising at about 60 and had gone about 3 miles, when WHAM I slammed into something and couldn't see out the windshield so i'm trying to stopp without skidding into the ditch. I manage to pullover and realize my hood had blown open and crushed my windshield on one side. Apparently when I had the hood open at the rest stop, the freezing rain had frozen my second latch and when I closed it only the first latch had latched. So i peel my hood off the windshield and its 2 o'clock in the morning so I don't want to call anybody to pick me up. So in order to latch the hood I have to get ontop of my hood and jump up and down to bend it back. As I'm jumping on my hood in 30 mph winds with freezing rain, a semi blows by me and encoats me with slush........Worse night of my life

And they say North Dakota is a great place to live.

Speaking of North Dakota... has anyone seen the North Dakota Travel commercials lately? I about laughed my ass off when I heard them say "make North Dakota your next vacation spot"...rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrright. I think I will choose North Dakota over England for spring break next year. (no this time).

Right click, save as for the commercial.

I think that's that ONLY thing going for them, unfortunately. This is pretty much what you see year round here: Nothing (minus the snow during June and July only).

[airplanerik]

hahaha...true

[Bignellyxx]

No I think Kentucky hates your car cuz it sure sounds like someone Louisville Slugged the hell out of your mirror. If not that...it is definitely drunk driving at it most talented of times.

[UAL747400]

I think you'd have to see it. Someone would have no problem taking the mirror clean off with a bat. Its definetly a hit from another car's mirror. Who hits mirrors from the bottom anyway? Here's another question, who the hell targets an olds cutlass. Its like one of the most generic looking cars in the world.
