What to do when your car refuses to start

Aren't you snarky haterz lucky? You get TWO POSTS IN ONE DAY.

So this is the situation: you leave work in deathly cold weather, and your car will not start. Your car service company (e.g. - AAA), can't get it started either. So you call your wife to see if she can pick you up; and she tells you to call a relative or take a cab. And this is the logic that follows:

She asked me, "... why don't you just call your sister, cousin or just call a taxi?" After spending years defending driving used economic cars to most of my family members this was not an option and a taxi would easily cost me over sixty dollars for the distance I needed to go.

So, what do you do? Answer in the poll over there on the right.

Well, I would have chosen option 2

"Get AAA to tow your car closer to your house so you can afford to take a cab"

but for some reason, I can't vote.

Hicktard needs to grow a set of balls and stand up to his wife.

Hicktard claims he didn't mind sleeping in his office. He didn't say whether or not evryone in the house rejoiced at his absence and took long showers and ate meat.

My rant over hicktard and his POS geo.

I like hicktard live in the Metro Detroit area, brand new cars are dirt cheap here. You can't walk 25 feet without running into someone who works for GM, Ford or Chrysler and can get you their family discount. He could easily walk out of a dealership with a brand new car for $150-200 a month lease payments no money down. That's right, for less than 50% of his monthly tithe this idiot could be driving a new car.

I'm with (c): take it as final notice that you need to stop pouring money into that POS car.

Seems to me that the HickMobile breaks down approximately every month. With the cash he spends repairing it, he could have bought 4 or 5 Geo Metros by now...

Oh, and: the phrase "baby emergency fund" really annoys me.

Oh, and also annoying: the phrase "zero based budget".

I assume both are Dave Ramsay-isms
