    so i'm sleeping in, since its my only day off, and i get woken up by my dad with half my antenna. :notnice:

    the paper boy threw the newspaper [ one of the big ones with all the super market deals and etc] and snapped my antenna and just drove off.

    i took the rest of the antenna off the car and threw the stocker on. so looks like i'm probably out 30 bucks. called the guy who delivers them up, and left him a message, doubt he'll call back.

    not only am i pissed that he snapped the antenna and drove off not giving a *****, he throws the paper by my car. i'm paying almost everything i make to pay this car off and modify it and keep it clean. he throws this paper carelessly and could do more damage to my car.

    can't wait to move out to a place with a garage. :mad:

    pretty inconsiderate of him to do something like that...I understand that, i'm nervous when people stand around the car such as if somebody trips and falls against it or something...yeah it may be an accident but it's one i'll have to pay for since i like to take care of what I have unlike some other poeple that aren't exactly care enthusiasts.

    exactly. right after i bought the car, my niece decided she was going to play football, my mom said she can't leave the porch, so her friend stands on the other side of my car, while my niece throws the ball to them.:nonono:

    i'm paying good money for this car, i want it to look as amazing as when i bought it, not have alot of little dings and such from stupid people. as an 18 year old kid i take alot of pride into my car. make sure its as spotless as i can make it. at all times.

    That no doubt sucks! That is careless on the paper boys part big time! If it were me, I wouldn't even want to throw it near someone's POS car! I mean, take a couple extra seconds and make sure you do your job the best you can. Esp when it comes to possibly damaging other people's personal property:mad:

    haha have a German shepherd. hes old though, and going deaf. unfortunately we have a broken down town car in the driveway in front of his yard. + the typical hip problem that they get when they are older. he doesn't like to move much.

    Damn down here they got a team normally one driving a beater lincoln towncar and the thrower in the trunk or hanging off the side of a molester van . Usually pretty accurate this way.

    yeah, still havent heard back from them when i called. i'm writing it off and taking the hit, it sucks how inconsiderate people are. whatever, what goes around comes around.

    its the same reason when i'm going someplace i park as far out of the way i can, even take up 2 spots sometimes, and every cart in the area i flip on its side so it can't blow into my car. i look like a jerk off, but i take as much care of my car as i possibly can.
