Theoretical Car Mechanic
“Hi, I’m dropping off my car. You’re the mechanic right?”
“That’s right.”
“Cool, so I’m not like, a car person or anything, but I think it might be the carburetor?”
“Ha, okay. You and everybody else, pal.”
“Uh, wow, that’s kind of rude.”
“Look, I don’t need bozos like you mistaking your Google search for my experience.”
“I didn’t…”
“You kids get on your ChatGPT. Ask your silly little questions. Me? I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about cars, okay?”
“…thinking about cars?”
“That’s right.”
“Uh, don’t you mean working on cars?”
“Woah, buddy, pal. I’d never touch a car in my life.”
“…but you’re a mechanic.”
“That’s right.”
“Okay, wait, roll backâyou’re a mechanic who doesn’t touch cars.”
“Naturally. I wouldn’t trust a mechanic who did.”
“…”
“You ever seen what’s in a car?”
“Of course.”
“No you haven’t.”
“Um.”
“Trust me.”
“And you have?”
“Oh hell no.”
“..”
“I’d never dare look inside a car.”
“…”
“Those things scare the SHIT out of me.”
