After (calming down), checking out the extant of the problem and evaluating it, turns out I may not need to start from scratch. So far, Steam, Google Chrome, Cortana, the taskbar and a bunch of sftware I have never used have been uninstalled. Thank god, and thank u. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delightful Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 (edited) The car had a flat tire that I didn't know about. I went out driving alone for the first time. I didn't make it out my street. The car wasn't cooperating -flat tire - and was jerking all over the place and hit a parked car and it was really loud and I scared myself half to death and I made myself leave the house and socialise but I really want to disappear and hide for the rest of my life because that was terrifying. Hugs, please? and if you ever get to know me in person this never happened. If people find out I crashed my first time out I will *never* live it down.

I hope the owner of the other car was civilised about it and calm... Anyway, go and drive again as soon as possible, or you may get scared of driving! And next time, if the car behaves in any way different than you'd expect, call your dad or someone else who's more experienced. There's no shame in asking for help/advice. I remember asking my dad about any unexpected noise I heard when I got my driving licence 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That....is some of the worst luck a beginner driver could get *hags* (imma keep it that way autocorrect) Also, one question, when you said it wasn't cooperating, that means the breaks weren't effective either right.....?

Thank G-D the brakes worked! The accelerator was super aggressive and lurch-y and the steering was a little off and the flat tyre was making scary thumping noises but the brakes worked. @Mestiv it all happened in the space of about a minute and I immediately called my mum. My parents were super nice about it and blamed the car not me. the other guy didn't care because it's his boss's car. Thanks guys. I'm feeling a lot better now. *hugs* Edited September 8, 2016 by Delightful 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jondesu he/him Posted September 8, 2016 Report Share Posted September 8, 2016 Our bank account has just dropped way too close to zero for my comfort. We've always maintained a healthy account and never lived month to month, but I haven't had a paycheck in a couple months now. Basically, this royally sucks. jW 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My brother merged into a semi as a beginning driver. I was in the car. It was terrifying then, and I thought I was going to die, but I think I can laugh about it now. I remember when my sister was trying to learn stick shift, too. She was awful at it. My siblings are not the best drivers starting out, I guess. I still don't trust any of them. Even the ones who are nearly 30. *hugs* 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My medical issues (discussed previously) have kept me out of work since January. Until the end of July, however, I was getting short term disability payments, which weren't completely covering our expenses, but we only ate up a bit of our savings. Then, the leave servicing company decided there wasn't sufficient medical information to confirm that I still needed to be out of work, so they bumped me onto unpaid medical leave. I don't know why that's okay, but not short term disability, but we're working on an appeal. In the meantime, though, our account balance dropped like a rock with nothing coming in and medical expenses plus normal stuff coming out. jW 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife does some childcare jobs for churches, but we have two kids, so she can't just go get a full time job. I have no idea when I'm going to be able to go back to work (this is year 3 of constant pain, and while I worked through it for that time, that's only because we couldn't get enough of a diagnosis to officially get me out of work, but I was taking intermittent leave, so I wasn't working anywhere close to full time). EDIT: we have family and other resources, so we're not worried too much about continuing to pay for essentials, but it still really sucks. Plus, before this happened I was really happy that I'd managed to find a way I could continue to get the latest iPhones every time they were released; now of course that's not an option, and I'm bummed I can't get the iPhone 7. Minor overall, but it's making me sad today. jW Edited September 9, 2016 by Jondesu 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
