My Wife tried to Kill me, but I wasn't under the car Options

[76-914]

Yesterday I decided to add a gage so I pulled Blackie in the garage. I jacked it up enough to get a jackstand under the motor mount crossbar on the pass side. This would allow enough room for me to slide beneath. After placing the jackstand I removed the floor jack but thought better of it. I actually had a feeling we might have an earthquake that day. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) So I move it back to a point a few inches in front of the rear jack point and maybe an inch lower. In other words, not in contact with the car. I figured the car wouldn't drop far if we had an earth quake (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif). Besides it would be easier to move out of the way. I had just drilled and installed a grommet and found myself needing some red zip ties so I slid out and was getting these when my wife pulls up (and in her defense) in our new SUV. She attempted to put the car in Park and began looking down for something while listening to an audio book. To my horror, I watch as she rolls into and pushes Blackie a few feet forward. As Blackie rolls forward, yes I'm screaming at the top of my f****ng lungs (TG I wasn't armed (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif) ) the jack stand tips over and the car falls. This is where it came to rest. A few more inches and there would have been a rolling tool box, two transaxles and one drill press in our kitchen.




This is looking inside after she drove off cause I'm an asshole. Oh yes, I was in serious shit for screaming and had to promise that I would not post any of this but that was yesterday (IMG:style_emoticons/default/type.gif). See the fence that is flattened out. That's so the dogs can work in the garage with me. I guess my hollering spooked them cause when that fence went down they ran off down the damned street. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wacko.gif)



Anyway, this shot shows the fallen jackstand. As it turns out, as the car came off the stand it moved forward a few inches and landed on the rubber pad dead on the rear jack point then continued to roll forward on the floor jacks wheels. I shit you not! There is a very small dent in my rear spoiler where the SUV's lic plate frame hit it. Remember it was jacked up higher than it would normally sit.

My wife has taken out the garage door three times, she never looks to see whats behind her when she backs out, just sticks it in reverse and leaves like shes leaving the Bat Cave.

She took out my sons friends car one time because he parked in the driveway and she backed straight into it.

She wants to know when i am going to fix her car, i bought a front and rear bumper for it, but i will not fix it until i am ready to sell it.

I know she will run over one of the dogs someday, this is my biggest fear.

I laughed so hard a this. A perfect description of how my girlfriend uses reverse.
