    If she wanted a new AC unit you'd think she could have found a more direct route.
    Use the biggest hammer you like, pounding a square peg into a round hole does not equal a proper fit.

    That means she's getting good at it! She should have this a/c destroying thing down by the end of the month!

    It'd use my left foot to brake if it weren't for that damn clutch pedal...

    I can top this though... Down the street from me a woman was coming up to a T intersection where she had to go right or left. She went straight... Into a Gas meter... The whole house ended up burning down.

    Good thing the neighbor was cutting the grass, he ran over and pulled her out of the car.

    Saw the picture, then immediately looked for the OP's location. Not surprised at all.
