four brand new Michelin Defender tires I forked out $820


That’s cheap as frick for four Michelins. They must be small wheels or something.

Two things, one of which you mentioned.

1. They’re small.
2. The owner of the tire shop we use for all our tires is a longtime neighbor and good friend.

One day my youngest popped a tire hitting a curb in a vehicle that we pay for. She didn't want to drive it that night on the donut. So she took her mom's car that night. She popped a damn tire in that one too. Same damn day

Apparently so. And it’s this one particular curb that is her nemesis.


Lots of women cut corners too close when taking rights so it tracks.

I wish these would become a thing again.

It’s actually a rhetorical question. I already know we men will never really understand.

I don't think my wife has ever not hit a curb when turning right while I was in the passenger seat.

If she ever divorces me, it will either be because I drink too much, or because I always go "whoop there it is" seconds before she smashes a curb every time.

I'm sure the list is longer than I want to know. Hopefully the counter list is at least half as long
