A man just stopped me to ask if I’m a car mechanic. My first thought was “oh no does he need jumper cables?”. Then I realized it’s because I’m wearing my coveralls. I said, “No, these are my eatin’ pants, can’t fit in my skinny jeans no more”. He laughs without detecting any sarcasm. I’m pretty sure this is the same guy that wants you to name three songs of the band shirt you’re wearing, from the concert you went to, but as a girl you clearly couldn’t have loved. Just another day being a woman justifying your existence. #mansplaining #nofilter
So in other words she was dressed in coveralls, a guy made a joke based on that then laughed at her joke reply. Then ???, proving he clearly is a horrible sexist.
Both lack of interest from men in fixing their own cars and new car designs being totally hostile towards the shadetree mechanic.
Oh, hi, you want to change your spark plugs? Front three are a 15 minute job. Back three require you to disassemble the entire engine. Good luck!
"Just buy a new car, bro, it'll get better gas mileage anyway"
just buy an electric car bro, literally infinite gas mileage
Fuck spark plugs. Changing the BATTERY requires a computer with an encryption private key, or the car's computer goes nuts forever
Second time I have ever heard the term shadetree mechanic within a few days of the first
