Anything described as a “simple fix”, if it was a simple fix then the seller would already have done it. Either it ain’t simple, or they are too incompetent and lazy in their maintenance to do it. Neither is a good sign.

I request this. I tell them I need to see it cold start. I’ve come to look at a car, open the hood to find a warm engine and tell them I won’t go any farther, I’ll be back tomorrow.

Downplaying issues (“It just needs a little X...it’s a quick easy fix”)

“(Insert item here) doesn’t work, but it’s a ten-minute fix.”

Any one of those things would be a big, fat, red flag. A lack of floors in the front would have me hightail it away from the seller immediately.

“Ran when parked”

Yup, if it’s that easy to get a new title, they can go get one before selling it. 

If it’s already running when you show up to look at it, that’s an issue. Lots of faults magically disappear after a vehicle is warmed up. 

“I lost the title.” Sorry, but as easy as people say it is to get a new title, it’s a pain in the ass and not cheap. Hard pass on any “Bill of Sale” transactions.

When the current owner “knows what they got”.

The major issue is in many ways in the name of inclusion they change the one character who was already inclusive. So instead of having a sensitive and multifaceted male character who breaks expectations (that still exists in this genre) we’re now going to have a pointless controversy with none of what made that…

Toad approves.

It looks like somebody tried to modify a person to look like Sonic with painful, mutilating surgery ala “Tusk.”

It has nothing to do with the game. Abusers will abuse for the smallest, most nonexistent reasons. I’m sure this isn’t his first incident and unfortunately it probably won’t be the last.

Nah, there’s no “being in the moment”, it’s not about taking a video game too seriously or having fucked up priorities. He’s just a fucking scumbag. Unfortunately piece of shit men who act like this will go off over any number of things, and sadly he’s probably done that before for completely different reasons. It…

1993 Mercury Cougar, a butter knife would be overkill. You literally had to turn the two plastic tabs the key went in between to start that car. It basically became the neighborhood car due to this.

How do you know?
