Muffler shops are full of pussies

How am I suppose to drive this car with a fucking clogged catalytic converter? I need to get this shit unclogged. I mean I can drive around with a loud ass car sure and I might as well because I can't buy a new god damn cat.

So I need to unclog this shit and I call all these muffler shops to see if they could unclog it or atleast remove it.

There's three on this exhaust. Two smaller ones and a main one. I just need to get rid of the smaller ones for the time being. But I can't because its illegal

All these fucking places just tell me Oh no man we can;t do that, thats illegal. They even give me lip about it and trying to give me a fucking lesson about it. "NAH MAN YOUR CAR WONT RUN RIGHT" Yes it will. The exhaust will just be shitting all over the place but I dont care. I need to drive. I dont need to pass emissions for another year and in that time ill get it replaced. Hell even with the main one itll probably pass. Fucking redneck son of a bitch giving me shit for asking. God forbid I ask and try to give him business. I swear im going to burn that piece of shit apache muffler down

yeah yeah sure i understand its technically illegal but its not like its attached to the car currently. Its a free piece right now

So now Ive been chisiling away at this shit for hours and i havent even finished. I hate not having money. Im so damn tired

Talk about your car or something. LIVE JOURNAL

    I wish i could get a new car. Like a brand new car. With almost no miles on it.

    Like itll just be sitting there looking at me telling me its okay to put miles on it. It wants the miles

    not these 19 year old mercedes and volvos that shit all over me and make me work.

    This isn't quite new.

    But compared to the '86 Accord with a quarter million miles on it, this thing is fresh off the factory floor.

    It not only has power locks, but air conditioning! I feel like a Rockefeller!

    My '88 Pathfinder has power locks and AC!

    But the AC doesn't work.

    And the power locks don't always unlock all of the doors.

    my 89 volvo just broke down last week. Which is why im trying to fix this mercedes with the clogged cat

    The volvo had +357k miles on it. Im not sure how much more because the speedometer broke. There were other things wrong with it but now its the head casket because well im dumb as hell and it overheated. Thing was bound to die. Its fixable but i need transportation asap

    Stop spending your money on japanese blow up dolls and save some money for a change.

    Alternatively buy the parts and do it yourself and stop being such a goddam woman. Fuck, exhaust systems are like the easiest fucking bits in a car to replace.

    Look shut the fuck up. I dont have a blow torch and I dont know how to wield shit. If i did I would do it on my own but sense this thing doesnt have clamps between the cats and I dont have $500 to spend on a brand new piece I;m going to be a god damn woman about it and bitch about it the whole way.

    well actually the if I just bought the cats separately and took it in it would be about $200 less. But thats $200 I dont have so fuck you

    and I dont have those $200 because I have to pay for school myself and I dont have a full time paying job and what do you care eat shit

    I had a pretty good conversation with a mechanic the other day.

    Them: "Your CV Boot is getting cracked and work out, but your warranty won't cover it because it's not actually broken yet."
    Me: "Can you tell them it's broken?"
    Them: "Uh, no..."
    Me: "Can you give me the number of a shady mechanic who will?"
    Them: "I'm new to the area, sorry."

    I didn't mean to rub it in, but I am just saying that my week is going pretty well so far.

    Despite my old car being a piece of shit, I was pretty lucky with it. Despite a few minor hiccups that could be fixed by a Triple A guy, I never had to get a single thing on it fixed.

    Until it died, mind you.

    i was trying to find the shady mexican muffler shops but none of them are listed. I need to put my heritage and second language to good use.

    Work more hours, or hell get a job if you don't already have one.
    OR
    Put the money on your credit card then work it off.
    THEN
    Find a friend that can weld, I personally know three and in a pinch I can stick stuff together as well, it's not that hard.

    At least he isn't licensed to hold a scalpel or anything.

    Yeah I know that if I had more money to freely spend this wouldnt be a problem. I get how that works. I understand the concept of money

    Spending money on this is avoidable and I need this asap. Getting the parts through the mail and finding some one, who i dont know, else to wield it for cheap isnt asap. Instead im going to keep doing what Im doing and go through the pain in the ass of chiseling the inside of these cats to spend as little money as possible.

    I wouldnt go willy nilly trying to wield this thing off and then trying to fit a pipe for the gap. I havent done it before and I have no time to try it.

    See, at least your friend delivers where it matters.

    He might be a bit of a knuckle head, but at least he isn't going to shoot you on a bet.

    His friend got him to drink an entire bottle of bbq sauce on a bet.

    The bet was a bag of 200 paintballs.

    He threw it all up in a plastic bag that was full of holes and dripped vomit around our other friends house.

    Good guy, if nothing else, he's entertaining.

    If he got the vomit all over the house of the friend that made the bet, that is some Shakespeare-style hilarity.

    If it's some third friend, it doesn't quite have the irony to it, but it is still pretty fucking funny.

    I always find it strange when someone doesn't know someone to help them out.

    I have friends that have all kinds of different jobs from lawyers to plumbers to engineers to boilermakers. When I have a problem most of the time I can go to someone I know to help me fix something.

    Were all of your friends the exact same people or something?
