Of course, they're my friends. Why wouldn't I want to help them?If they feel so inclined to help me out surely they would because of my help.
>>28583896Only basic stuff if it's a problem.Currently have a buddy who wants to own a classic project car. He reminds me of what I wanted to do (and never did) at his age, so I help him get this car into a roadworthy state. He got it from a rolling chassis, drivetrain in, and is now working on the wiring harness. The kid has done more in two months than most boomer hoarders ever did in forty years.
>>28583896I haven't had a friend in more than a decade.
I've never had a friend or girlfriend in my life >guys at work say I must have gotten tons of girls when I was young since I had a motorcycle You too
>>28583896why post this on Craigslist and risk having a fat hairy old man show up with a used battery when she could walk into an autozone and pick who she likes and make the same offer for a new battery.
>>28583896Only very close family and friends.That pic also terrifies me.Imagine the STDs
>>28583896>sister buys jeep because she thinks she's a strong woman who needs a strong 4x4 SUV>she used to change her own oil and tires on her old Civic and plans to do the same on this new car>on schedule she pops her tire sidewall running against a curb one night>she tries to put the spare tire on>she cant as it's dark outside at 10pm and she had heavy 20" hueg tires which Jeep in their infinite wisdom decided to use lug bolts instead of nuts>she calls me in the night crying because she cant put the tire on because its too heavy and she cant line up the bolts in the dark>have to stop my solo bedroom cardiovascular activities to go save her>get there with my big ass floodlight so I can see where the damn bolt holes are so I can align the tire>get tire on in 1 minute>she thanks me and says she will pay me back>she drives to a gas station with me following and goes inside the bathroom to wash up>follow her inside then go inside her and creampie her twice
no lmfao im a wrenchlet myself all the non car enthusiast friends i know know how to change their car oil n shiet and i dont know how to do that and i consider myself to be a car enthusiast
>>28583962everything except the last part happened in reality she continued her drive to chad's house and got pounded hard after being tied to a chair while you jerked off alone
>>28583950>why isnt [literal crackwhore selling BJs on craigslist] making smart life decisions
>>28583896I'm gonna be looking at the back of her head? not the top?
>>28583896>Implying that I have friends to begin with.
>>28584335Based
>>28584203damn you people have some weird fantasies lol
>>28584521Oops wrong thread damn I'm tired. Gonna be fun driving home from work in a few hours (I'm shitting on the clock rn)
>>28583896My friends are pretty self sufficient, but I do help my family where I can since everyone is a "run it into the ground then bring it to a mechanic" type of car owner.
>>28583896never ever help anyone that doesn't know what they're doing with cars.never.If your car friend that knows how to wrench just needs a hand, yesIf your friend, family, or coworker that doesn't even know how to change a tire asks for help, fucking run. If you don't, you will now be their designated full time free mechanic for every single thing car related.
>>28584330He swallows with his bootyhole.
>>28585282this applies to basically everything>hey bro can you look over this parts list before I order everything for my new PCabsolutely>I wanna build a gaming PC, you know about computers rightactually no I just use one for 16 hours a day to work
>>28585282>you will now be their designated full time free mechanic for every single thing car related.even worse, as soon as anything on their car goes wrong they will now blame you for fixing something completely unrelated. Theyll take it to a shop and the greaseball there will gladly validate this bullshit
>>28583896>Sting operation.>Show up with a bowl of eggs.>Make her eat all the eggs.
>>28585282>>28585317I just think thats anti social and mean.I think everyone else's problem should always be your problem. And vice versa. Helping people is nice. And you can teach and learn things.I wish I had the opportunity to learn to work in cars. I can only do basic maintenance
>>28585282If someone asks me to do something for them then I refuse. If someone asks me to teach them how to do something, then I'll give them some relevant resources and send them off.If someone tells me that they started a project and want my advice, then and ONLY then will I stick around for a bit and help them if necessary.I get your point about not indulging someone's ignorance, but if they're clearly willing to learn then I find it's often worth it to help them out in some capacity. Unless they're genuinely stupid.
>>28585410parasitism is also anti-socialfairness for ticks is injustice for the doganyone needs to prove they aren't a tick looking to ab-use others first
>>28585410>I think everyone else's problem should always be your problem. And vice versa.Feel free to be a doormatbtw anon fuck you you stupid piece of shit, you did my brakes last week and now my belts are squeeling and my window won't wind down, what the hell did you do to my car?? Big O told me it will be $700 to fix it, I'm expecting you to pay AT LEAST half
>>28583896Depends on the problem. Most of my friends drive newer cars, and I don't have an OBD reader, so any CEL related issues are usually a moot point for me, but If it's something that's otherwise diagnosable, then yeah, I'll generally help.
>>28585407>sting operationNo.Women are just whores.They literally fuck guys just for a meal.
>>28585415the fuck. practice doing should be more active than teaching.>those who can't do, teach
>>28583896>be zoomer>friends' parents all boomers / gen X>refuse to teach their kids how to do anything>doubt they can even do it themselves>used car market bubbled and never burst>spent the past 3 or 4 years' free time restoring 15 year old econoboxes just so my oomfies can get to workYes. Somebody has to, because old "people" were too busy going on cruises and cheating on their spouses to pass down that knowledge.
>>28585407h-how many eggs can she swallow haha
>>28585410>Helping people is nice. And you can teach and learn thingsthat's the difference between someone wanting "help" and wanting you to do something for them. the other anons essentially said that helping is fine, which you seemed to miss, or misunderstood. I've done a brake job for a buddy, who tried to help, very poorly, but he was trying, and wanted to learn. he's also not a fucking freeloader, which is the crux of the issue here. no one I care enough to help expects you to just do shit for them, or at the very least has readily helped me with shit I have limited knowledge on when I'm in a similar situation. or you help them once with something basic, and never do it again if they're a cunt that sits on their ass and watches you work. live and learn
>>28585431everyone is born a "parasite". You can be helpful or not helpful. If you're getting "abused" that's a skill issue or you're incredibly conceited.
>>28583896"fixed" a valve cover gasket on a buddy's civic crx, it continued to leak.>>28583919goddamn, what's your story? were you homeschooled by schizo doomsday cultists or some shit?
>>28585282>>28585317I help my family out with car stuff and i'm their tech support too. In return they help me out with various things, even though i would never ask my parents to help me because I'm grateful enough about them helping me pay for college. I dont see what the big deal is so long as your family isnt full of ungrateful cunts. Family should stick together.
>>28583950Unironically, she might have tried that already, but the people at the autozone can see the gaunt face and track marks which arent shown in pic because its most likely a much older pic. Unironically the fat old man would probably mog her lookswise at that point.
>>28583896seems like working on cars is one of the few things that bring us together without the wives coming along. helping with household projects is a close second.
>>28590598how i would love to have a neighbour to shoot the shit with while we're helping each other wrench
>>28590598Nigga do you live down the hill from me?
>>28591076not many hills around me
Nope. They all want help in many things but when the times comes to reciprocate they are nowhere to be found.
>>28590598They come out to ask if you’re done yet, or if you’ll be done soon, or why you aren’t done yet
>>28585282For family this should be no problem. For everyone else, grow a pair and tell them you'll do it for money.
>>28595463>For family this should be no problem. Fuck off, I don't care if we're related, I'm not your free use personal mechanic.
>>28583896Normie friends? No way. Too much shit can go wrong and turn a 1-hour job into a weekend. Motorhead buddies that need a hand, that KNOW what kind of shit can happen and take care of it themselves? Sure.
