Impromtpu Shorty: Out of Business

I’m never gonna buy auto accessories from a discount store again.

I got a car a while back. It was a fixer-upper, but it was still something. I wrote down a list of what I wanted and what I needed for it, and went on my way to an auto shop that sold discounted parts. These things were marked down a lot; I mean to the point where it was just too good to be true. But I bought them anyway. They looked fine to me.

That is, until it came time to install them.

The radio wouldn’t work; only got one station.
The tires were flat; and apparently had a small hole, because I couldn’t pump any air in them.
The engine practically exploded on me; I had to run for the hills while my car got engulfed in flames.

Furious, I took the bus back to the auto shop and I was greeted with not a nice salesperson but a sign.

“Out of business”.

Hoi Thar.

Crestfallen is the 3-year-old site of a sarcastic 20-something natural-born New Yorker who goes by the name Nat Marie most days, but answers to many other things, including Shadow, Chickenhead, and "Hey Bitch!". She has a love for writing, performing arts, and cats (albeit allergic to them). You will find love, life, and a lot of writing and sarcasm sprinkled in. Enjoy.
