Cracked the oil pan on the rental car in Chilean Patagonia this morning. A fairly benign dirt road too. Now just sitting and waiting for the rental company to figure out a resolution. We are three hours from anywhere. At least we have cell phone service.

Now is when you wish you had all of the GOTOS condiments. And damn, I hope they get this resolved for you right quick.

Time for a passive-aggressive note.

Props to Avis, they had a mechanic here in about 45 minutes, who confirmed that the car is fucked, and said they’d have us a different car in a couple of hours.

That's impressive! In Chile no less. If only we got that kind service HERE.

Type the note on your phone and leave the phone on the windshield.

People who post nonstop pics of vacations while they’re on them. Look, we get it, you’re in a cool, new place, but your roommate from college doesn’t care about seeing 15 pics of a white sand beach.

This one has me perplexed and annoyed. The City of Seattle must pay $6.5MM because an old fart (pickup driver was 87) made a left turn and crashed into a motorcyclist going straight:

Seattle will pay a motorcyclist’s family $6.5 million in the aftermath of a crash at an intersection in the Wedgwood neighborhood, when a driver turned left on a solid green light and fatally struck 22-year-old Jackson Reavis.

Pretrial evidence showed the Seattle Department of Transportation planned to convert the signal on 35th Avenue Northeast into a green left-turn arrow, but failed to do so before the June 10, 2019, tragedy, the family’s attorney, Craig Sims, said.

Reavis was riding south on 35th, when an oncoming pickup driver turned left toward Northeast 75th Street, striking the motorcycle.

Two months after the fatal crash, SDOT equipped the crossing with green left-turn arrows — which reduces the need for drivers to gauge each other’s travel speed while choosing a moment to turn left.

And:

“That green ball, for yielding turns, has been a longstanding issue,” said Flint Jackson, traffic electrical systems engineer for the Washington State Department of Transportation. “There is benefit to making it a flashing yellow arrow, rather than a green ball, because drivers misinterpret a green ball to mean they have the right of way. Especially these days, with distracted drivers.”

So drivers are now too dumb and/or distracted to know you don't have the right of way when making a left turn and that's the city's fault. Wow.

Rob their house. That’ll teach them.

Back in the old days we'd have to suffer through their photos post-vacation the next time we saw them, so at least now you have the opportunity to throw up a quick like and move on.

That would qualify as good parking in any ski resort in America.

Someone left their car parked about nine, maybe 10 feet right of the fuel pump instead of in a parking space while going into the store. I pull up to the pump, leaving just enough space that I can comfortably open my driver's side door to get out.

Driver of the other car gives me a hairy eyeball when she comes out and finds that she's got a pickup about 30" from her car.

That is annoying but I always try to remind myself that the cars next to it when I walk by might not be the same cars that were there when he/she pulled in. It’s possible the driver was squeezing in between two wackily-parked cars that have since departed. It may not be likely but it is possible.

When my ex wife leaves town for a few days, she doesn’t board her dogs. She has my daughter and others let them out when they can. Which means they get let out a couple times a day for a 2-3 day stretch, and spend the rest of the time in crates. It’s bullshit that I feel obligated to help manage this.

Confiscate the dogs, turn over to local rescue groups.
