I've just had it up to here.

I was sitting in my living room last night when I heard a tremendous BANG.
I looked out my living room window and there was the neighbour, firmly backed into the front of my car.
My car alarm blared and sounded...my car had been hit. Again.

So can anyone tell me which god I might need to make a sacrifice too? And what, exactly, would suffice? A new tire, burnt over a sacred flame? Perhaps a fresh can of oil, tipped gently into the gutter whilst murmuring fevered words of prayer? Would sacrificing a perfectly good air filter release me from this wretched curse?

The universe hates my car.

I don't even know what to say..well except this: WHAT THE HELL!!!???

There must be something we can do to remove the very obvious curse on you.I'll look into it..

I don't know what to do with your car but we could string your neighbor up and throw nuts at him. Would that help?

Seriously, sorry about the car.

Should you be taking the bus for a few weeks in hopes this car-banging business will die down?
Gosh you sure are having it tough with car accidents - thankfully at least you are not getting hurt physically.

Grant said...

You didn't say what kind of car. Maybe it has it coming, like a Ford Escort. Anyway, as a protection charm, I recommend surrounding it by a pentagram made of fire whenever you park. I'd like to see your neighbors hit it then.

I think it's time to buy a bike.

Karma! You must have been a very bad puppy in a previous life.

A previous comment suggested you take the bus. Have they never seen the film Speed!!

jmb said...

Janice has a good point, at least you are not in the car. You could be getting whiplash. I guess you have to find something positive in this somehow.

kimber said...

You, my dear, have very bad Car-ma. I actually blurted out, "OH MY GOD." when I read your post. The gods demand a sacrifice, and I dare say, they thirst for the blood of the next senseless, pathetic idiot that rams into your vehicle.

I'm already feeling sorry for the next poor bastard that even so much as blemishes your car; they have no idea the road that's been paved by others before him/her!
And even though they don't know the history, don't show any mercy! Someone has to be an example at some time!
I think we've all had "the vehicle" that is cursed.

Get the people you used to work for to give you one of those car shipping boxes. You can pull into it and crawl out the sun roof. This will only work at home, though. Maybe you should pimp out your car to look like you are a gang member. Then people would be more careful. Cones? Sheeesh, that's just bad luck. I hope I don't miss meeting you because a spy satellite fell on your car.

E. Rivera said...

That is CRAZY!
Horrible CAR-ma is right!

So sorry to hear!!!

Pol* said...

I'm with Ms.I WHAT THE HELL!?!?

Can't even blame the car.... the curse must be following you (case in point -- tree hitting the car you were using, not your car per-se)

I am at a loss

Stupid automobiles! Why do they hold such power on us and our feelings of self worth?

Sugar. said...

Never in my life have I heard (or read) of someone with such bad car luck. Time to purchase an armored car or a tank..?

Big Brother said...

Get a tank, I'm sure you can get a good deal on a used Leopard Mk1 tank. Not many miles to the gallon but your neighbour will learn to respect your vehicle especially after you've driven over his car.. ;o)

Hermes said...

Not so funny: your car being a victim again. Funny: "Car-ma".

Perhaps a quest instead of a ritual?

Hope you got this guys numbers.

Spider Girl said...

In some traditions, the traffic gods appreciate a nice cigar and some rum.

So I hear. :)

And usually I'd poo poo what Grant has to say, but he may have hit on something that might just work.

Phil said...

You obviously did something wrong. You've got a whole lot of bad karma going on there.

Jo said...

Tai, I'm sorry... this made me chuckle. What is it with you and your car???

David Amulet said...

You are kidding me!

I'd suggest giving up driving. You can park you bike, at least, inside to avoid this stuff.

Ian Lidster said...

I think, dear, you should think about getting another car. I once had an old Fiat that was equally cursed and I blessed the day I was rid of it.

gordaboo said...

long time no read girl.
i can't believe it. your car is cursed! poor little thing.

Jazz said...

You must have done something horrendous in another life to deserve this.

And I don't even believe in reincarnation! But in your case it's the only explanation.

tsduff said...

Maybe you need to get a horse :)
