There are a lot of small things I don't like that involve treating my property with disrespect. The only thing that 'really' bothers me, to the point of getting my blood to boiling, is to find someone leaning against my perfectly detailed vehicle. It should be obvious, to any idiot, that I take care of my vehicle and probably don't want scratches all over it. Regardless, I don't react well to it.

It's actually come to blows before. Not because of the leaning, but because of the reaction of said person to being asked not lean on my vehicle. Sometimes, I don't ask too nicely, I guess. So far noone has done it more than once.

"Don't slam the door biatch!
How many times I gotta tell you?"

That &

When my wife leans back in the seat like it's a lazyboy, extending her sock feet on the dash and smudging my windows with little toe marks.

Makes me so mad I could crush a grape.

getting back to point number 2:

After she leaves her smudgy toe marks on the glass, she'll be riding in my truck a week later, forget she did it, and then accuse me of having some dirty ho in the passenger seat,

"Where did those foot marks come from? looks like little feet? Are you cheating on me again?"

Ahh the pain, lol

I "WASH" my Jeep... How silly... Sometimes, when the desert pinstriping gets bad enough, I even buff it out.
