Correct.

That is why I don't.

If I can't wear sandals, it's too damn cold.

Also, I see 5 petals in that car. I thought a car should only ever have 3 petals.

Something's aloof, and I don't like it.

it's apparently illegal to drive with sandals here. Not because of the cold (lol), but apparently they can be a hazard with the pedals... Err... Petals. Something about a sandal folding and getting stuck on the petal or some bullshit. If you get in an accident and they see you were wearing sandals, you're automatically at fault.

I've been absofuckinglutely slammed at work. Every so often the shit-stars align and rain down diarrhea in a torrential storm. That was this week.

So for that I apologize. Please accept this picture of my dickhead with AcraZime written on it.

Mostly asshole, mouth took a floggin'. About a 60/40 spit on getting my right and left earholes abused and my nose was attacked by the smell of vasaline and burn ass hair from the first.

Oh, and oddly enough, my pisshole is irritated too, but that's just coincidental from the bamboo kabob skewer I've been using to stretch it out with.

I put my summer wheels on the TL, just now. That makes me horny.

Other than that, I just like to stretch my anus with the occasional Pyrex beaker. I hear your sentiments on the bamboo skewer in the pee hole also. Wondering if there is something else I can use that is less prone to splintering.

I found some small diameter Carbon fiber tubes. Maybe I'll buy a few.

Speaking of which, have you ever had the displeasure of getting a catheter? Going in isn't bad. But feels fucking weird. You just constantly feel like you're going to piss yourself because your muscles can't stop the flow when the tube is inserted. Just drains itself. Most annoying and awkward feeling. But then the removal... Omg.... Felt like razor blades on the way out. Just brutal.

Thankfully no.

I generally avoid doctors and the hospital and stuff like that. You know, places that could result in a catheter (also, the Dunkin Donuts over off 47th).

My wife got a notice in the mail, about 7 months ago stating that they are extending the warranty on the engine due to the failure but won't take action til it happens and they can confirm it is indeed a failed motor. The service department is a joke over at KIA. They can tell you that the HID's installed caused the engine failure. I was trying to unload my wifes car but don't have enough saved for another vehicle. I'm not too worried about it since its a 2011 with 39K and it sits more than it's used. My wife just got a job in the city, mass transit it is for now.

the daily driven Kia Sportage does not display any knocking or have any metal shavings in it's oil, as I change it pretty frequently at 6k mile OCI.
but was the one thing that worried me, as this will be mom's forever vehicle. I dont think she's planning on buying any other vehicles for the foreseeable future.
glad Kia stepped up to provide recalls on the engine if ever needed.

Wow, that sucks... but at the same time... warranty covered free engine if anything fails for extended period of time/mileage? Hmmmm... I'd destroy the engine right near the end of the warranty period and get it replaced

I assume the new ones are fixed now, with regards to whatever was causing them to bite the dust? Or are they just cramming the same, but new replacement in? What was causing them to die?

H/K really need to step up on their customer service, though. There's a new Hyundai dealership really close to me, and thankfully they've been wonderful there. A super nice dealership and great service. There is another, much older Hyundai dealership close to my work... that place is greasy AF. I avoid that place at all costs. Terrible customer service and they try blatantly ripping people off on the regular.

manufacture defect or debris in oil passageways can cause oil starvation.
at first, KIA/Hyundai didnt think it was a problem.
and dismissed people.
then, they warrantied engines that could provide service history...( i would be at a loss, cuz i've misplaced oil change receipts)
now, they know the full scope of failure and is providing a full recall...IF your engine has debris

so, im guessing it's gonna go by VIN #, as the earlier cars were more prone.

went to Galveston last night and had dinner on the coast
parallel parked and went to dinner
upon coming out from dinner, notice a car parked a little too close to my front bumper. no harm, no foul.
while reaching third base, we felt a love tap from the car in front of us....not once, but twice!!
I got out and confronted the drunk ass.
tapped the bumper enough to cause spider webbing in the paint...
