I got nail in my tire! Damm it!

I was hanging out in Anaheim this morning for job fair. Dropped six resumes and head home on highway. Set up cruises control around 75 mph as usual, then all of sudden the car was shaking like crazy.
Got home anyway, and I found this.
Who the hell did this to me?[:(!]

Got a new Michelin MXV4 from BIG O TIRES for $125 after installation (dear Jesus, don’t you know I’m unemployed?[v])

Do people really get jealous about young kid driving big S Class although it is old one?

RE: I got nail in my tire! Damm it!

I have to confess, it was me. Jealousy got the best of me and I flew first class to Anaheim after consulting with my spiritual adviser who informed me that you may or may not be attending a job fair somewhere there. The tricky part was sticking it into your tire at 75 mph. I hired a road crew to dig a pit across the highway and cover it with a Kevlar material and when the time was right I flipped up the Kevlar cover and punctured your tire. I knew which lane you would be in because of the helicopter support that was tracking your every move. All in all it cost me sixteen thousand dollars to pull off but that's ok because I have a job. I hope you can forgive me but I partially blame you for flaunting that big Sclass in my face.

RE: I got nail in my tire! Damm it!

I've had this happen several times over the years.

I was in Birmingham about a year ago and ran over a fender screw in my ML. It dead centered that thing in the tire. The prick at the only station open charged me $25.00 just to plug it (plugs are $6.00 here).

I don't think anyone did that to you. It most likely happened as a fluke. (But then again, do you live anywhere near LA-Pomona area. I was there last year and I remember taking a mallet and driving a nail in the tire of an S class because the F%$ker cut us off in traffic!).

Q. What was a Fenderscrew doing in your ML?

A. About 8 pounds.

RE: I got nail in my tire! Damm it!

Someone knew what he was doing. I have good results patching the holes with Slime, that goes in thru the air valve, but it will not work on the side.
Time to think what bad did you do [:p]

BTW how did snips know you are an Asian?
