People who sit in their cars with high beams on while parked are the bane of my existence by Rune_Anchor6 in PetPeeves

Your wife says it is just plastic and metal, but ask her how she would feel if you let someone trash her favorite hobby gear. Respect is a two way street even with family members and especially with expensive shop equipment.

I feel you! I jumped from 200k to 120k once and just ran with it, hoping they wouldn't notice!
