Abso Ridic Pt. 3: “At the Car Wash?”

Chello folks, Musin here. Just poking around the good ole’ AbsoHilare and — what? Me? Oh yes, I’ve been fine, no complaints here. Hmph, anyways, I just wanted to say that I went to the — huh? hm? I should cut to the hilarity and do away with the mildly entertaining tangent? Uhm…sure I guess I could do that…so much for building a relationship with the readers; greedy.

Yeesh that was random, nothing too crazy though…right? I mean, you never know what to expect at AH. On any given day you could find a post about anything from babies that need to be pushed (in cradle and all) to AA meetings, to an encounter with NYC’s finest–the homeless. So I figured a little Musin talking to himself wouldn’t be too far out, right (just go along with this one, come on) ? Good, glad we’re on the same page. What? Cut this tangent too? Alright alright i’m done…for now.

So the summer is finally here! It was a splendid day out so I washed the car and then moseyed on down to my nearby petroleum distributor with only the intentions to utter”Fill ‘er up” to the underpaid Indian at the pump. This gas station is ALWAYS busy so I had to wait in line at the pump. Initially I was pissed the eff off because it was hot as hades, but when I stumbled on this gem I immediately turned on my AC (with gas tank on Empty) and started cracking up!

I spot (at pump 7) this short Asian dude almost boastfully stepping out of his champagne 1999 Toyota Sienna. Sounds good already right? Well it was. So this man steps out, walks directly passed his gas tank and straight to the bucket with the windshield wiper sponge. So I’m thinking, “Oh, this man is going to clean his windshield…smart idea.”

WRONG! WRONG! WRONG! I was two fill ups behind this man’s turn at the pump. He spent at least 12 minutes washing his minivan–WITH THE WINDSHIELD WIPER SPONGE!! I could NOT believe it! I didn’t even care, I was looking directly at him and laughing my ass off! Who wouldn’t ?

Imagine a man at a gas station…walking directly by his gas tank every time (at a GAS STATION) only to re-lather his windshield wiper sponge in efforts of washing his MINIVAN! He washed the ENTIRE VEHICLE with a windshield wiper sponge. This is/was too wild to me. I can’t go any further. Thanks for reading and please do enjoy life.
