JW "shit happens" topic (maybe a sticky??)
I think it would be cool for us to have a sticky where we can all share our misfortune and confess to different things to make it easier for us to deal with them.
Here goes mine: I just got back from the movies. I drove there with a few friends. We were watching Alien Vs. Predator when the fire alarm started ringing. We had to exit the building and were promised a refund next time we go there. We start walking back to the car only for me to notice something weird....my rear license plate was missing. It was obviously stolen because I had recently screwed in with four screws, and we're all 100% sure the plate was on the car when we left for the movie. This is the second time in this country that my license plate is stolen. The other time was last year, in an underground parking lot. Now I have to go through all the hassle and expense of getting new license plates (I wanted to get ones that say "BADMIHAI" but now I'm scared to do so) and pay for that road sticker. Does anyone in Canada know where to call and report the numbers stolen? Last time a security guard called for me.

i think there isnt quite enough 'real' bad stories for the shit happens... and as much as i see the ponderous problem you are dealing with... i cant re   ally see enough traffic in the 'shit happens catagorie' so... im a wanker
relating to your shitty happenings... ive never heard a single story of such an event in michigan.. and you say its the second time? mabey you need to move across the boarder to get the 'badmihai' nameplate...
also... if you really want the costom plate, i think there are less chances of it getting stolen, as vanity plates are quite easily spotted compared with mundane alpha numeric plates... hence why jabbas plate totally kicks ass, as its costom, but seems to fit in quite nicely in a crowed of other lambo diablo roadsters

They only stole my back plate. In Ontario you have to have both plates.

No, thanks! I don't want to get shot/carjacked.

im sure even cops have the gawk factor when seeing an F50 roll past.... or fly past.  
and, badmihai, i think you only have to worry about getting car jacked in either the east, or west side of detroit a jeep, or civic also adds to the probobility equasion

Bad, I'd give the poilice a call. They will take a report and probably put it on their system. That way you don't get tickets sent to you in the mail or something.
As for shit happening, I dropped a 30lb rock on my finger digging through a pallet today at work. It hurts, but still works.

I always thought that is what the general chat section is for.

I already have such a thread in the computer forum. I could start at least another three threads of similar disasters that have happened this week alone.

So do it. We could put all the car accidents here and all sad stories. Come on! You know you want it.
BTW: There are too many wankers on this site!
