had a dream this morning I got dropped off on the bus driven by my sister at the corner of Tyvola and Nations Ford Rd in Charlotte in the middle of a Tornado Warning. me and somebody there were more concerned about finding something to drink than the weather
We are supposed to wash our cars? I lease. They wash it for me if I bother to get the oil changed. They don’t complain due to my very low mileage when I turn them in. (I used to hand wash my cars at least 3 times a week during decent weather while my child played outside after work/school. I should say I detailed them that often.)
I never thought about going through a car wash being similar to being caught in a storm before, but Brutus’ description of what happens is rather accurate. Just don’t go through one in a convertible with the top down—that can cause all kinds of problems!
That is truly hilarious! And the reason he knew it was a dream and not real life is that the Born Loser in real life would be going through a car wash in a convertible with the top down!
For Brutus’ sake, I really hope this dream isn’t a traumatic reminder of something he actually did.
Reading panel by panel, I was trying to figure out where this was going — what the punchline would be (kind of like trying to figure out what Pastis is up to when he constructs an elaborate pun in Pearls Before Swine). I was clueless, even though today I drove my car through exactly the kind of car wash Brutus is describing. But at least I can report that my car’s top was up (well, maybe that isn’t so impressive, since I don’t drive a convertible, but I did make sure the doors were all securely closed and the windows were completely up).

That’s a shame. Car washes are kinda fun to go through.

No car washes here except those with the rolling brushes. Car is too expensive for that so I power wash it and use my leaf blower to dry it

funny gag, Chip! Although, the dream sounds similar to what we had on Aug. 6…w/o the convertible, of course!

If you drove your car through a tornado, I think you’d be very unlikely to live to tell the story.

Now THAT IS most definitely a nightmare of epic proportions. Was the car damaged in any way? By the way, were you okay?…..
