Good vs. Evil

So Friday night after the Grandview game I went to hendocs and was minding my own business enjoying a cocktail or 8. Around 1:30 I went to go and get in my car and head home when I realized that my car was no longer where I had left it. A bad way to start a trip to Taco Bell let me tell you. So I walk around the3 parking lot to make sure that the car did not move on its own (you never know after a night of drinking stranger things have happened). So after a few minutes I realized that it was likely my car had been towed. Apparently you are not allowed to park in the parking lot in front of Gumbys ... EVER. So I went in to Gumbys and asked the guy if they had been towing the guy said "Basically they tow ever car in this lot" I said what if I was a customer, dude said "That sucks I can call them and tell them that and maybe they will cut you a deal on getting your car back." So I said sounds great lets do that.(By the way Attorney Ed is it legal to steal peoples cars?) I should mention that this phone call took place after I had called the tow truck company and verified that they did tow my car. And while doing so I may have told the guy what an asshole he was. So dude from gumbys makes the call and the guy basically says tough shit. So I call Heather and tell her to order a pizza from Gumbys before she comes to get me which she did. So while I am waiting for her I see the tow truck (with the same guy that towed my car in it) come back into a lot and just pull up and tow another car. So even though they say that they watch you get out of the car and go into the bar they are full of shit they just tow people because they can. Fucking cock suckers. So I go over to the guy and explain to him why it is he needs to bring my car back to me. He says no dice, so I end up driving down to Frank road in the middle of a shithole neighborhood and going back into some shady ass lot where meet up with dirtball tow truck guy. So we have another 15min discussion where I show him the sticker with my name and address off of the pizza box and explain to him that the reason I may have sounded abrupt on the phone is because no joke I am def in my right ear and can't hear well out of the left. I mention this after asking him to speak up several times because he is such a degenerate hillbilly that he can hardly speak his native language. So after this discussion and me telling him 2 things 1) If I have to come back here to get my car tomorrow I will have the cops with me because they had no right to tow my car since I was a paying customer at Gumbys 2) I have no intention of paying him to get MY car back EVER. So after another 5 min of shred negations The guy finally gives up and tells me I can take the car and go....

So the moral the the story is when dealing with the pieces of shit of the world do not let them get the best of you. Good always prevails over evil. To quote a attorney I know "good things happen to good people, and I am a great fucking person"

  1. Good work! The whole time I was reading that I was waiting for the line "And then they called the cops on me." So the moral of the story is that we can park in Gumby's lot now?

  2. ...meanwhile those remaining inside Hendocs, stayed there for another two hours and ended the night at TJ's. It's crazy to think you were going through all that shit while we were still across the street. At least it worked out in the end.
