Ok. So I am at work and this girl I work with is like, "my car is wobbling." First off, I have driven some POS cars, and never driven one that "wobbled". Anyways, so her car wobbles. She want's to know if I know what it might be, I know next to nothing about cars. I tell her this, and mention that it could be her alignment or balance, but that those are complete guess. I recommend that she take it somewhere and they look at it, or at the very lease call. At this idea, she gets all flustered over having to take a car into a garage, pay $50 to have someone tell her whats wrong with it. So, she's determined to figure out what is wrong, before she takes it in.
First she calls her mom (long distance). Tells her mom about the "wobble". After I am forced to listen to ten minutes of ridiculous talk about a wobbling car, she determines she needs to call her sister. Yes, lets call sis. I am sure she has plenty of experience with "wobbling" cars.
So she calls sis. She goes through the same mundane story. After several minutes of this, her sister makes her promise to let her drive the car before she takes it anywhere. Why you ask? I have no idea.
After this, she calls her boyfriend. Tells him the whole story. They get in a mini fight about the damn car. yada...yada...yada... He also doesn't understand why her sister needs to drive the car before having it looked at.
Remember, the only information that she has been passing to people the last 45 minutes is that her car is "wobbling".
Now, I have no idea where I am going with this. Probably just wasting your time. But seriously, do cars wobble? Why does this girl feel the need to call and get everyone's opinion about a damn "wobble"? More importantly, am I the only one who has a hard time with 45 minutes of conversation about a wobble?

I thought I would delve back into the history of uber to see all the quality posts there were in the old days before all us peasants arrived and made it rubbish.

whats worse is that you wrote about it for another 10 min. after you heard about for 45 min.
but on the up side your one hour closer to going home
