    House is almost done, for the 100th time.

    I don't know If I mentioned this before but the guys that kidnapped the bmw were doing some painting on the house, and they could not focus on 2 things at once..

    That is why this has taken horrendously long, and well obviously the fact that body shops use another type of time that we are not used to.

    I have not been able to write a story...

    I have sat a few times ready to type, start thinking on the whole thing and actually stress myself up about it.

    Every time I have wrote a few lines I read them back and end up reading like It was an article in a magazine about a strong independent woman being a victim of the male oppression. And I'm not talking about the hot CEO of a company getting banged against a wall, I mean the gorilla looking woman that triggers because a dude without legs did not gave her his seat on the bus.

    Yeah you can't search anything up on here. My piece of advice is to subscribe to threads you enjoy so you can find them easy. Welcome to S|W!

    Also, still waiting on the story

    never underestimate the pain that a bodyshop can cause. Those that disbelieve have either not undertaken the venture, or have been extremely lucky.

    One of the few members who was young enough to stay alive throughout this long ass journey of yours here, I am in for the story seeing as nothing is going on with my car or life.

    There is a way to tell a big story and make it entertaining for those of you that like to know what I had for breakfast explained in simple text.

    BUT

    That would be awfully long and stupid for those that just want to see progress on the car.

    So at this time I will contain myself to explain a situation that has nothing to do with the car on the car thread.


    For the conspiracy theorists:

    - No, Funds are there
    - No, I am not getting divorced
    - No, Chips Ahoy chocolate chips are NOT real chocolate
    - Yes, being a good person is often considered as being stupid.
    - No, Don't be a good person.
    - Yes, be a Bitch.
    (Grabs popcorn and patiently awaits big story fulfilling all the details)

    Wait, your saying ive been lied to all my life about chips ahoy?! those fucking bastards.

    Sidenote: Grab bowl. Insert multiple Chips AHoy cookies into bowl. Pour milk. Dwell in your delicious super unhealthy new breakfast item. Savor each and every bite. Repeat until fat and obese.

    Always love reading your builds. However i do have to comment on a few things.

    WHAT IN FUCKING GODS NAME IS TAKING THAT SHOP SO GOD DAMN FUCKING LONG??????

    Seriously. That is appalling its taken so far 11 months and counting for those repairs and paint. I dont know if your dramitizng the timeline for a better story (perfectly acceptable and i hope this is the case) or they truly are the slowest shop ive ever heard of lol

    I manage and run a body shop on a daily basis, and im embarressed for the time its taking them.

    Granted the work looks to be quality, but even still. I hope your getting a super mega uber sized step brother hook me up deal on the price.
