But it makes your other inadequacies feel less significant.

Also, knowing you could take it out and point it at ANYONE makes you feel GODLIKE.

“MY PITTY HAD PUPS DO U WANT 1 OR 2 FOR TRADE?”
(I’ve literally gotten this one - for a CAR)

“RU WILLING TO TRADE FOR PAINTBALL GUNS?”

Blatant mispronouncing kills me. Take the time to read the word, or listen to how others say it. One of my coworkers has a few of these that give me hives:

“Well, we would’ve killed her, but she passed the paper bag test”

Sounds like you’re in UK somewhere! Let me revise that to “real useful person, with callouses instead of privilege”. I got the impression from TopGear that it was quite hard to keep or find used cars in the isles, but I would imagine getting cars to pass MOT then selling them could be a good gig.

At least with the guy on the street, you can show up to his house and force feed him the keys...

Now THAT would be a serious red flag. Are these the same clients that glaze over when you use multisyllabic words?

BECAUSE REAL AMERICANS BUY AT DEALERSHIPS! Can’t afford it? Ask your parents for an advance on your trust fund. You have one right?

I guess I can only speak for my home state, but I have never had a DOL refuse a title because of the signature as long as I had a signed bill of sale paper trail back to the title holder. YMMV.

Simple: make sure there is a PAPER TRAIL. SIGNED bill of sale from 1st party to middle party. SIGNED bill of sale from middle party to YOU, listing the middle party (curbside seller)‘s name, address, etc. Confirm this via their driver’s license. Get a photocopy if possible. They were SOLD the car via a bill of sale,…

No, this is just scared elitism from people who are afraid to buy anywhere but a dealership. My family used to fix & flip cars to make ends meet, and we did this if we knew we could get the car done and out of our possession quickly. Never did it maliciously, and always gave a bill of sale listing our full names,…

DEALERSHIPS HATE HIM FOR THIS!!!!1!

Fuck you.

Don’t listen to the freaked out yuppies in this thread who only have ever bought new, or cert pre-owned. I grew up in a household that would fix and sell Toyota trucks in this manner to make extra food money.

I curbstone-purchased my current daily... Double checked with the third party on the title, and checked that I could get the title in my name with just an intermediary bill of sale. Turned out great.

Dude I bought it from was a retired Volvo mechanic who was trying to make up some extra money by fixing and flipping old…

Yup. I’m addicted to bathing and that devil-Spotify. Also, sleeping and eating. When I don’t do those my day just feels worse.

Boom. This challenge reflects how out of touch with reality Jalop writers are.

1987 240 wagon 5-speed! About to roll over 200k, so she’s nearly new.

Nice user image.
