Somebody stole a vital part of my car a few months ago and the insurance company said it would take five months to fix. My alternative was taking a payment to buy a replacement. I got less than five thousand and had to dip into student loan money to pay for something obtainable.
I wish I didn't live in a place where the closest services are a two mile walk, with several unprotected crosswalks in between.
damn...was it a catalytic converter? apparently that shits gotten HUGE since covid hit (wonder why), stealing them i mean. ive seen many articles about so much as catalytic converter theft rings, entire groups of people apparently just dead set on stealing these fuckers
That was it exactly. The guys that did it sawed through portions of the engine to get it.
I tried to be mad, but it's like, people are so desperate that it's only a symptom of deeper problems. I had to file a police report for insurance and felt gross the whole time.
I didn't expect them to get close to finding it or doing anything close to helpful, but it made me afraid of what the cops would do in my area if they had issues like mine as an excuse to harass people.
Thank you, comrade. I'm glad people here are like you and get situations like this.

And getting my new(er) car insured was so pricey. I didn't choose to have some asshole steal from my parked car, but here I am.
I would love to just have a bus pass and a train pass. I wouldn't even mind the commute if I could sit for two hours instead of driving for one.
