I noticed that your Recent Conversation links are not going directly to the comment. Is that intentional? It looks like you need to append a ‘c’ after the #.

actually, I /did/ realize it was sarcasm. I was actually in NJ this weekend and was talking with ken about this post. I told him that i was gonna post an ironic comment along the lines of “sarcasm. This is sarcasm, right?” when I first read it. I figured after the fact it would be a nice in-joke to post it.

That said, I thought that he really met DMV people and decided to write a sarcastic article about it. I hadn’t realized it was a complete fabrication, since it’s so completely out of tone for everything else ever posted on the blog.

“People have to tell me these things. I’ve been frozen for thirty years, throw me a bone here.”

Having had some strange experiences at the local inspection station, the article is not that far from the truth.

I was failed because I had a slightly sharp (sharp like a rubber spatula sharp..) edge on my bumper. That and a leaky gascap.
When I returned for the reinspection they checked the bumper, and then just wanted to see my receipt for the new gascap. I asked if they wanted to test it, and the answer was no. Also while I was there they were harassing another gut for a irregular edge on his bumper….Like I care about how the bumber is shaped when I get hit. I am going to care about whether or not my legs are broken, not if they are scratched!

Crazy times.
