if raising kids is anything like it, i dont know how ima deal.
I watch car shows and see the 'mechanics' take shyt off and put shyt on. i watch hella tutorials and read haynes and chilton manuals.
needless to say I want to be like them
i takes care of my baby. im gentle especially when under the hood. but when im tryin to make her run better, perform better, be better. shes stubborn. where i want to use the right tool and expect her to obey she wont budge, and gives me trouble.
so instead of treating her like a baby. I treat her like a bytch. im rough, I still use the right tools but instead of the behind the scenes pretreated and factory refurbished model cars they use in pictures and tutorials. my bytch has been driven, through rain, mud, snow, heat, cold all of it.
ive got to use a torch and a hammer to demand respect when she doesnt give it.
i dont want to do that, but when she obeys when I abuse her and reinforces my abusive behavior how am I not supposed to just be abusive from the jump? i like workin on cars. I enjoy it and want to enjoy it but sometimes its a bytch.
its like if I have a kid and I dont want to hit my kid, but my kid aint actin right and I hit them in the mouth then they act right. How am I supposed to not want to hit my kid again when or even when they are beginning to act up?
its just another day in the garage but I think about this everytime I do work on my car or a car. I just replaced a master cylinder, 4 calipers, rotors and sets of pads and had to bleed the bytch (of course).
2 calipers were perfect, I should have recorded my own tutorial of how to do it, the 3rd one gave me some guff, but the 4th one was unfukkinbelievable. shes done but god damn why she make me gotta be like that?
