note: I have not had sex in my car
I do think I know where it came from, though, and it wasn't placed there by a third party

three weeks pass...

Searching frantically through the detritus on the passenger side for a buffalo springfield cd that the library says is missing, I unearthed a gallon tub of macaroni & cheese that my mom sent home with us when we visited her last month.

also, re the earwax thing above, my son apparently found a box of qtips that fell out of the grocery bag. he's been idly cleaning his ears on car rides and tossing the used qtips on the floor.

i have twice been reprimanded in food service jobs for needing to have better personal hygiene :(
when i lived in an unheated warehouse space are the bathroom was really far away so i bought a 2 gallon deer park water thing, emptied it out, and then peed in it all winter.

curious as to who counts as a second party in this scenario

( ͡° ͜ʖ͡°) (sic), Tuesday, 4 December 2012 02:16 (eleven years ago) link

It was me. Also, the second party is the one who also had sex? Seems obvious.

mh, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 05:04 (eleven years ago) link

since you said you didn't have sex there, there was a lot of non-obviousness inherent

( ͡° ͜ʖ͡°) (sic), Tuesday, 4 December 2012 07:07 (eleven years ago) link

yeah mh, still confused over here

idk it's a mystery ~~

let's concentrate on what's important here: slam dunk's undeniable commitment to this style

i have been rotating b/w the same two pairs of socks for approx a month, washing the 'old' pair in the bathroom sink and drying on the radiator

ゑ (clouds), Tuesday, 4 December 2012 16:13 (eleven years ago) link

with all due respect mh let's please concentrate on why you brought your cummy used condom into the car with you

it may be a mystery but it is a mystery worth solving, at least to this inquisitive mind

del griffith, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 20:28 (eleven years ago) link

i'm pretty cleaned up now, but during the worst of a long depression i wore the same undershirt for nearly a month. sometimes i'd have an entire subway seat row to myself, homeless bag man style. one day my friend demanded that she wash my shirt, and when we opened the washing machine door to check on the progress the water had turned completely black. those were some good days.

Spectrum, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 20:32 (eleven years ago) link

Nope, sorry.

mh, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 21:34 (eleven years ago) link

lol i remember once a punk friend came to visit after being on the road for a while and i was like let's wash those black jeans of yours and turns out they were actually light blue

I slept in one of those treehouse things at America once and that was an experience.

Also I haven't used shampoo in maybe 4 years?

You know what? I visited the Copycat a couple times, tagging along with a friend of mine. All I remember about it was skateboards, basketballs, and a really awful punk band rehearsing.

one month passes...

Cleaned out my car last night in a mall parking garage while I was waiting to picuk someone up from work. I didn't want to put my trash in any of the plastic bags I had in there, since thy come in handy as trashcsn liners around the home, you know? So I just started marching handfuls of car detritus over to the trashcans near the entrance. At some point, a young couple posted up.at the trashcan I'd been dumping all this stuff in, and I caught myself mumbling under my breath about "stealing my trashcan. The robitussin I'd taken earlier in the evening no doubt played a role in all this.

Anyway, carrying armload after armload of car trash, including the contents of a bag of Bugles I had spilled all over the passenger side on New Years' Eve, struck me as pretty dirtbag. I was self-conscious about it, but I had to do this fuckin thing, you know? It had been one of the new years resolutions to get the interior clean,and so I madeprogress on that. But I was so stoked when I found this can on Pepsi Max that I dsnt even know I had.

mbvgz (how's life), Tuesday, 5 February 2013 11:01 (eleven years ago) link

So I said "I'll drink that on the way to work in the morning. I can save the money I'd have spent on coffee." I'm on the bus now and get to drinking it., but its a little off. Best Taste date on the bottom of the can? February 2012. How long have I been rolling with that Pepsi Max anyway?

car stuff just accumulates, man. not at all dbs but I have a book in the back of mine that I got at the used bookstore, didn't take out, and keep thinking "yeah, if I'm stuck somewhere without a book, I'll read that one, better just keep it in the car for now"

it's probably been in there at least six months by now

mh, Tuesday, 5 February 2013 14:39 (eleven years ago) link

I found a completely mummified banana in the back seat of my friend's car a few weeks ago - I was pretty impressed. Looked centuries old (and completely intact in its shrivelled state, no leakage or weird smell)!

I had a half-eaten burrito in the back for over a month, luckily it was cold outside or my car would completely smell like death by now

mh, Tuesday, 5 February 2013 14:56 (eleven years ago) link

Oh, cars don't count in terms of places that have to be neat, right? Cause otherwise I'm in trouble.

Oh yeah, one of the things I found was a rock hard quesadilla that I must have made my son for a quick breakfast on the road at some unknown date. There was one tiny bite taken out of it.

mbvgz (how's life), Tuesday, 5 February 2013 14:59 (eleven years ago) link

I was... actually aghast when I got a ride from this woman I was chilling with once. The entire back seat was full, not the floor, but the seats as well, and the passenger side in the front had about five layers of fast food wrappers. If you aren't up to that level yet, I would rank it not dbs

mh, Tuesday, 5 February 2013 15:14 (eleven years ago) link

OK, what? No, gross. Not that level.

I rode in the car of that same person w/the vehicle I could barely fit in due to to junk later, only to find she had taken up smoking again and had an empty starbucks cold drink cup full of cigarette butts. On her patio at home, she had a bike with a basket on the front she hadn't moved for a while. The basket was full of cigarette butts.
