car wreck

NotoriusBENNotoriusBEN Registered User regular
First off. I'm fine, no injuries. This is me typing this stuff while I wait for the tow truck. Hit a fucking deer that literally jumped out of bushes right into my car.
Engine still turns over, no fluids on the ground. I'm at a gas station in town.

Should I be livid right now? Tue only thing running through my head is I hope the fucking deer is dead. Not out of compassion, like godfather," I want it fucking dead!" Dead.

    Trust me, I looked for it. Its not there, or even 100yrds from the wreck.

    Thatd have been the only decent thing from this, out of season venison.

    As someone who has hit more than his share of deer and totaled one car because of it

    it is perfectly normal to be mad at the deer

    Fucker could have crossed the road at any time, but chooses the precise moment you're driving by

    Also, if the deer ran into the side of your car it's actually probably in the forest telling it's deer buddies about the jerk that ran into him as you type this.

    I've had twice in my life a deer hit and dent the side of my car. The first time it rolled over the top of the car landed on its feet on the other side and continued running.

    The second time I saw it coming from quite a distance and had slowed down to, no joke, 5 miles per hour and that fucker still hit my passenger door. Like it was aiming for me.

    But to answer your question, nah, let it go. Because the next time it might jump into your windshield at speed and then you'll have fun finding bits of windshield in the air vents a couple years later. This also happened to me. :+1:

    ?

    I want to say livid is probably a bit much but I have a ridiculously utilitarian view of vehicles so if nothing stopped working I'd probably treat it as an anecdote and not much else.

    Deer are natures version of suicide bombers.

    They are also very stupid, a month or two ago, one tried to jump a fence in the neighborhood and managed to impale itself on the top "Hot Fuzz" style.

    only if you cook it outside

    venison is delicious but gawd it smells horrible when you cook it in a pan

    While I was growing up for a few months after hunting season my dad used to cook venison steaks for breakfast on the weekends and I would wake up just so I could cover my nose with blankets because ugh

    This probably doesn't help, but maybe it's a little cathartic (if maybe a bit obvious):

    I swear some deer are honest to god suicidal. I have seen them stand on the roadside looking around without a car coming for 20 or 30 minutes and it finally walked out once a car came over the hill.

    Here, have some catharsis

    if only my car could give zero fucks like that carbon fibred machine of justice.

    anyways, update... not much.
    had to wait a day and a half for the insurance adjuster to come out to the auto shop and say, "yep. that's an animal hit. go ahead and dismantle the car so we can assess the damage."
    and im like, "dude, I can send you fucking pictures. there is animal hair stuck in crunch spots. I can send pics *with* the auto guy in them to show they were taken now, and not doctored in anyway."

    so the auto guys started dismanting on fri-oh wait. its labor day weekend we aint fucking working until tuesday.

    needless to say, Im kinda pissed I have to use my mom's ford ranger. I feel like spam in a can in that thing. like I can just about bruce banner it if I tried flexing my arms and legs hard enough... what im saying is i hate my mom's choice in vehicles.

    thank god it started raining on wednesday and thursday. I found out she doesn't even have A/C in that thing because it was such a deal at that price when she bought it... >.>
    yes, I understand that we don't have alot of hot weather in the puget sound, but if you didn't realize, 70degrees is fucking hot for puget sound and we just got done with a monster heat wave this summer.

    I want my car back.

    What kind of car do you normally drive that a Ford Ranger feels like you could tear it to pieces with your bare hands? An Abrams tank?
