I just walked out of Advanced Auto Parts. The cashier was being really nice and talking to me about my car. He then told me he loves S2000's, and I quote, "It's like a rear wheel drive Civic.
Well... Consider the source.

It has been my experience at what we call "parts" stores these days that the folks there don't have a remote clue what they are doing. All they can do is punch it a model, year, make on their antiquated desktops and hope for the best. If it "doesn't show up" they are lost.
Mostly staffed by the local high school's shop students, in my experience. I remember arguing with the people at Autozone over a particular part I wanted. It wasn't listed under the car I wanted to put it in, but I gave them the part number and they wouldn't pull it because it "wasn't for that car". So I told them I had some other BS car that the part was listed for. Shortly after that, I discovered Internet shopping. Thank God.

Thank you, guys.

back on topic here though..:

Was at the mall the other day, an elderly lady asked me if I she could get a ride in my "topless taxi". I was dumbfounded.

Shortly before I sold the CR I pulled up to the window of the drive-thru of the local Dunkin Donuts. This guy hands me my coffee and with a stupid grin says, "Nice kit roadster." There were so many questions I had for him and yet I was so confused by this statement, that my only response was, "Yea" and I drove on my way to work.

Later I was honestly curious what he thought the car actually was, or what he thought the car started out as, or if he was being sarcastic... I dunno, it was mystifying.

My coworker says "Is that a blanket on top of your car?"
Me "what?"
Coworker "your roof, is it covered by a blanket so your car stays warm inside?"
Me "Shaniqua (her actual name), what the fukx are you talking about? It's a convertible with a soft top."
Coworker: "ohhhhhhhhh"
