Dear kid:

You're in luck! I just did the 3k service on the jag and washed it; when your private school starts in August you're totally welcome to run it the 3 blocks over and park it.

WTF is "3K service"? Is that getting it wet for the first time, and stopping at the "ghetto" gas station for a gallon of gas?

What kinda pansy ass car do you have that it needs "service" after 3000 miles?????

30,000 I kinda understand. 300,000 I totally understand. 3000??? WTF??

Damn. And I don't like asking my neighbor to help me move something with his pickup, which I compensate with beer.


The more I deal with people, the more I don't want to!

Personally, I wouldn't be a douche about it. I certainly wouldn't want to piss off a 16y/o. I'd just explain with a series of oversimplifications and generalizations that the offer he made would be very disadvantageous to him and end on a positive note that you'll help him (a little) look for his first car.

Dear kid,

You live in America, where people are still lucky to be able to buy more cars than they really need, if they got a good education and worked hard and smart for few years.
They may have taught you at school that this is wrong, and that it is unfair situation that Hillary Clinton will make right...Let me assure you that this is not the case, and if she gets elected, everybody will be driving a smart mobile, or some other ridiculous electric or hybrid whimpy vehicle that won't even let you drive like a real man.

In the mean time, I suggest you get a part time job in bicycle range and learn to work on used cars during the week-ends. Wishing you best of luck in your automotive endeavors.

Something about removing the motor oil and then putting fresh motor oil in. I know it's weird

I don't have a clever answer for such a dumb request but was struck by the fact that she seems to have very redundant vehicles(?)

She needs a curator for her collection or something.

Dear Number 1,

Ask you Mother if she will let you drive the Clown Car she has hidden in her vagina.

At least get the keys, nine kids is enough.

Sincerely....

This is the closest thing to what I was thinking.

Gogar you have witnessed a failure in parenting. If any response is warranted it would be 1- tell the kid you hope he is one day mature enough to be embarrassed by his request and 2- go see the parents and tell them to quit farking and start raising their children instead of expecting their neighbors to do the job.

I despise people like that.

Dear Kid,

Next time you see Mr. Gogar you should hit him up for one of his motorcycles. Much easier on gas and chicks dig them.

Sincerely, Ms. Gogar

Assist the neighbor in setting up a gofundme page so he can get a Panamera of his own. It's pretty simple and he can plead for money on car websites, etc. I hear it's what all the kids are doing these days. ��

When I read the kid's text, I thought he was actually angling to be Ms. Gogar's cabana boy or something.

Bad choice of words. A 16-year-old new driver should not use the word "Disposal" when looking at cars. A wrecking yard is soon in his future.
