So did anyone spill the beans?

Is mustangman2000 related to dammitsteve?

only a loser would quote Macbeth and act as if it has any relevance to how we should live our lives...

Hopefully he's not going to become like the typical "reformed" person and use it as an excuse to be a pompous blow-hard.

It sounds as such thus far!

You have a valid point, sir. I've been sober for quite some time now and just realized how exquisitely insipid and sad some of these "drama" threads really are. Admittedly, very interesting fodder while in a drunken stupor. Sober, however, not so much.

What is it Macbeth said? A poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the stage and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.

Carry on.

While I'm fan of Shakespeare and all, I have little doubt that his pantaloons would be soiled in a bar fight with this man:

Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut. ~Ernest Hemingway

This thread is getting decent.

Like the folks who are suddenly better than the smokers when they've just quit?

Once the check is issued anyone can do whatever they wish with that check they are issued. Thats not in question or an issue. Letting someone go out of their way for you multiple times, then walking away ia shitty. Its a principles thing. I feel this person never had any intentions of having his vehicle repaired. He just needed to find someone that he could take for a ride then walk away.

Sounds like your buddy was paid $500 for doing next to nothing. What, a little paperwork? How much paperwork or parts estimates is worth $500? Because I think I could have whipped that all up in about 4 minutes.

Literally? No.

For you to dismiss Shakespeare like an 11th grade linebacker is quite telling.

That's why I dismissed it with Hemingway instead. It reflected my fine sophistication and cultured tastes.

Back to the reply that I was going to make. I prepare bids on a semi daily basis, and I would love to make $500 for each of them that I did, regardless of if they were accepted or not.

In this instance "storage" is merely a point of contention.

Wow. First of all the person I was referred to was a good dude and was very helpful. We talked the entire time and after Geico said I could just put it towards the loan, that seemed like the better idea since I was trading it in. He AGREED that if I was doing that then it was the better solution, even THOUGH he wasnt going to get the business. That was pretty badass and upstanding of him.

For his time, I paid him over $500 hundred dollars out of my own pocket just cause I did appreciate his time. The money from the insurance went to the bank with my loan so I didn't get anything.

What happened was between us and wasnt a big deal

all this drama for nothing

Awesome quote, I was wanting to reply in a similarly intelectual manner, but I'm not similarly intelectual.

We seriously need a 'like' button up in this bitch.
