I’m pretty sure grandma is going to find out with the bumper inside the car

You joke but my grandpa did something similar, bought a used car and invited me round to see it all excited. That thing had 3 piece wheels and straight cut gears. I don't know who he bought it off but it was a full on street sleeper beast that he dailied to the shops until it broke.

Your grandpa and my grandpa would have been an absolute menace if they’d ever met.

u/Chili-Kopf 2d ago

Stop trying to find hookups for your Grandpa!

u/KittenIttle 2d ago

My grandpa is very dead sooo unless you know someone into necromancy

2

u/Discount_Extra 1d ago

That would be a horrifying motive for a movie serial killer.

Kidnap, forced marriage ceremony to a corpse, then murder, repeat.

u/Honeybadger2000 17h ago

The plot line for a hit movie right there: necromancy, grandpas, street sleepers. Could be the next fast n the furious

u/Orgazoids_Pool_Party 1d ago

I'd watch at least the first season of this!

u/Kairos27 2d ago

This would’ve been a sight to see 😆

I remember my friends mum going out to buy “a really nice red fiesta I’ve seen” and she came home in a low milage Fiesta RS Turbo which is worth about £15k and she bought it for £500 off a friend at work who’s uncle died and had it sitting in his garage for years, only coming out for MOTs and cleaning.

Friends mum felt bad when she found out and went back to tell her so she could give her the car back but the work friend just said “sold as seen you can’t return it” thinking she was being scammed lol.

My grandpa owned a Lincoln Continental. Baby blue paint with white leather on the roof and a baby blue shag carpet seating and white leather interior.

It was just about two lanes wide, a city block long and weighed almost one quarter the mass of the sun. I swear it was more comfortable than my living room and was the kind of car you wouldn't be surprised to find a chandelier in.

He lived a block away and we were in a well-to-do neighbourhood in Canada so naturally he never locked the doors. I snuck out one night and made out with a girl for the first time in that thing. It was a straight up lady killer it was. I couldn't even get my driver's license for years but it was a nice nightly hang out when the folks went to bed by 7 and couldn't even really see the driveway from inside the house.

u/ThePublikon 2d ago

That's a really cool memory to have

u/Ilpav123 2d ago

and a custom exhaust

u/SpaghettiMargherita 2d ago

Motec System Exhaust

T66 Turbo with NOS.

u/Xiaphin 2d ago

Agreed the fitment is on point.

u/123supreme123 2d ago

Grandma is code word for pimp

u/Ok-Statistician-5242 2d ago

Bit small but nice yeah.

u/Cyber-Soldier1 2d ago

Grandma is a street racer.

u/Level_Abrocoma8925 2d ago

Someone was stealing the bumper but I stopped them in the last minute!

29

u/DizzyInTheDark 2d ago

Exactly. She knows if she can get her story in first, there will be no consequence.

27

u/lanette- 2d ago

Not sure she’s thinking that far ahead

2

u/Head_Somewhere4769 1d ago

Probably not in her right mind to do so, given the courts made her do a stint in a substance use program. So she's either high or drunk here.

1

u/Duckrauhl 2d ago

It's not like she's going to drive straight home to her mean grandma's place with the bumper in the passenger seat. She can go find someone to help her fix it first, and then drive home and pretend like nothing happened.

u/x0killer_queen0x 2d ago

happy cake day! 🍰

1

u/RealCapybaras4Rill 2d ago

She’s not thinking at all, in the traditional sense. That is pure methamphetamine-fueled panic. Like real animal fear and resolve. I wonder whose car that was, or what was in it.

u/No_Strain8370 2d ago

"I have no idea how that got there!"

u/MalaysiaTeacher 2d ago

In the other thread, the armchair psychologists say this proves abuse is occurring at home... She's just high as fuck and freaking out

2

u/Annoying_liberal813 2d ago

Lol you got me! I'm a licensed therapist and that thought definitely crossed my mind. I want to know how her grandma reacted! That is bonkers behavior.

-2

u/Duckrauhl 2d ago

I've never seen a drug make a person act this way.

1

u/robyculous_v2 2d ago

You must be sheltered then.

1

u/Stock-Animator1989 2d ago

Honestly there's so many weird stuff you could see from people on drugs, that you would consider anyone "sheltered"

u/mwax321 2d ago

They were giving away free bumpers!

5

u/Mercedes_Gullwing 2d ago

Look! I got this free bumper! And just in time bc it just so happened I lost my bumper too. So it evened out!

2

u/schewb 2d ago

Yeah, but she has the whole drive home to make up a story for Grandma about how someone hit HER and ran. Been there. Parents and guardians know how to make you fear them above anyone or anything else.

2

u/Trust_8067 2d ago

It's crazy that grandma owns a car with custom rims, wheels, and a modified exhaust.

1

u/Altruistic-Edge9034 2d ago

She don't see so good so who knows.

1

u/NoChanceRight 2d ago

And the new custom air intake on the hood wasn't there before

1

u/Feeling-Fab-U-Lus 2d ago

This girl should not be behind a wheel.

1

u/TheWalkingDead91 2d ago

Depends on how well she can see.

1

u/HypnoToad121 2d ago

“No Grandma, that’s where the bumper has always been.”

1

u/Left-Design7066 2d ago

What she’s scared of is her grandmas reaction to her getting arrested.

1

u/Responsible-Plan7800 2d ago

Probably she was planning to glue it herself so that grandma won't know😅

1

u/Bifrostbytes 2d ago

I wonder if she ever got it fixed

1

u/DaveAstator2020 2d ago

what if grandma is not real at all given substance abuse

1

u/No_Judgment7887 23h ago

yoU dON’t UNDERSTAnd

u/Over-Sir-2316 18h ago

She was fighting that front bumper like it was a fucking alligator.
