So, I come out like any other day and I hit the button on my key to pop the trunk. I walk up and notice a HUGE, 1 inch wide by 3 inch long light blue blob of something sitting on my paint next to my trunk lid (quarter panel). I have a black car so it stands out like a huge sore thumb.
I get some spare napkins I had in my car and try to take the stuff off. Most of it comes off, but it stretches out (turns out the stuff is gum which has melted from being in the sun, plus the heat of having a black car added to it too) and a ton of it stick to the paint and wont come off with the napkin. I'll have to use some ice and possibly a small amount of denatured alcohol to get this crap off (followed by a few coats of wax to seal it up, since the DA will take off the finish).
Obviously its some jealous punk at school who did this...but come on...this is how the world works...if I went and threw gum on everyone who had a Ferrari, BMW, Lambo, etc., I'd be chewing endlessly. If I find out who did this I'm gonna give him a nice stomping...maybe a 50mph brushless Revo to the foot.     
But seriously...what the hell is wrong with people...just cause I drive a nice car doesn't mean you have to hate and screw it up...
End rant (this pretty much ruined my day, cause not only is it having to deal with this itself, but the fact that now I know someone is out there to get at my car and is probably gonna do more stuff to mess it up)... |
My guess is that you probably work hard for the things you have...otherwise you wouldn't have reacted in the manner that you did. Unfortunately we now live in an entitlement society...that is, an ever increasing percentage of our population believes that the Federal government or its affiliate support mechanisms (state, county, or city funded organizations) "owe" them something....
You have a nice car and since the "government" didn't provide the miscreant that spit gum on your auto with a ride of similar quality, they want to try and level the playing ground using their own misguided methods. My advice to you...kick their @$$ not once but twice...then sharpen your mind (concentrate on your studies) and body (work out hard), join the Marines, excel in life, and forever put yourself above that type of scum. Its a simple formula...
Sorry for the emotional response but it works...and besides the hard lessons are learned when you are young (if you are lucky). Kicking this $hitbag's @$$ will undoubted build some character that will ostensibly make him think twice before committing such immature and disrespectful acts in the future.
Semper Fi.
