    Winner!

    I understand that people make compromises in relationships and whatnot, but there seems to be loads of folks who will agree to walk around on eggshells for another individual. Are you serious?

    Was at a pub. Two kids are sitting with this cute girl. She had just started to date one of the boys, I will refer to him as KennyG, he was effeminate with pretty hair. His sidekick was this fat fup who wanted to be pretty so he’s trying to stuff his fat arse into skinny jeans. Kenny and Fup are insulting this girl to her face. She finally has enough, gets up crying and leaves the table. A few minutes, she returns with tears gone and she engages me in a conversation about my motorcycle. She wants to ride, but she’s afraid. How does one deal with fear?

    I ask her why does she date. She says she doesn’t like to be alone. That means she doesn’t like herself. Kenny suddenly becomes insecure, and begins to show all kinds of public displays of affection.

    If you are needing good reliable transportation by Monday, would you buy a car that needs work?

    “Yes! Depends on what it needs.”

    You NEED reliable transportation. If it needs work, it is NOT reliable!

    Kenny realizes that I am talking about him. So, he draws his ace card, “YOU DONT UNDERSTAND…YOU DONT KNOW WHAT I’VE BEEN THROUGH!”

    (I knew it. He invited this stupid girl to a pity party and trapped her. No wonder he can be verbally abusive…)
    Everyone on planet earth has been through some sort of trauma but you expect the world to stop just for you. The world owes you nothing.

    (I turn to her…) Whatever happened in his life, happened before you. It is not your fault and you should never have agreed to pay for it.

    {SLAP!}(Have you ever looked into someone’s eyes, and see the cogs turning? It’s a wonderful sight. Kenny and I watch her, and the wheels were turning…)

    Silence. I sip my beer. KennyG looks at me and I identify him. “Bewitch.” Kenny jumps up and flees from the table. Fat Fup follows. Stupid girl jumps up and followed. A few minutes, she returns to tell me that she has to take them home. I wave goodbye.

    @AModelCat, learned something new yesterday…

    The fishing tackle box piercing crowd refer to the big piercings as barbells.

    If he’s close to the 105 get off there is a shop there. Use to be a place called Clark’s in Poca that handled anything military of the past, but sadly they are gone now. I know there is a wrecker service in that area called Hillbilly towing too.....

    I think a more descriptive term would be "dumbbell"

    I appreciate it. He had Elkins Towing take him back to another internet friends shop in Pittsburgh. His insurance covered 200mi of towing, he was 152mi away. He was about 55mi S of you on 19 around Silver Birch and was definitely willing to pay to get that thing transported somewhere.

    My company has a 35T equipment trailer, if he has more issues on his trip, I think Im just gonna go get him.
