I had a flat tire once. It was miserable. I was about 2 hrs out from my house, heading to my parents for Thanksgiving. I got the flat around 8pm, after all the tire places had closed and this was before I had the good car insurance with the roadside assistance. Oh also, it was really cold and pouring rain and I had my cat with me because I couldn't find someone to watch him over the 4 day weekend so I had to take him with me.
Sooo, I ended up having to take everything out of my trunk to dig out the spare and change the tire myself in the freezing rain and then drive home at 50 mph on a major interstate highway. Got home sometime really really late at night. By the time I got up in the morning and got the tire replaced it was just too much hassle to try to make it to my parents house.
But, on the upside, I ended up eating Thanksgiving Dinner at a friends house who hosted international students. I ate dinner with people from Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Taiwan and Venezuela. The most interesting Thanksgiving I ever had. The End.
See what happens when I'm forced to bump this thread up? You all have to listen to my stories.
Okay, Needster, saw pictures of the car, now let's see pictures of the BDHs!!!

whoa what an experience. It's funny (well, not so much for you) when we were waiting for the recovery truck, I was saying to my dad that at least it wasn't really cold, or wet or anything like that. It was bit chilly after a while but we just put our jackets on. The guy said on the phone that it's best to put your hazard lights on and stand outside of the car behind the barrier - we did that for like 3 minutes before going back in. Its not just because we were tired of standing around, but we were way onto the hard shoulder - completely off the road - and only a car that itself was crashing would hit us. Plus it was a lot quieter in there without the blaring noise of passing lorries.
Your tale of a multinational thanksgiving sounds like it was memorable - but was it enjoyable, or just "interesting"?
The pics are now up - you can see them in that thread I posted a link to (unless you're already there as I type this)

* TheRealMe looks at both Safe and Jack, then at the robot woman in the bubblewrap. *
You know, gentlemen, if we continue to work on Bubbles, here, we might find our reputation with any real females declining. In fact, if we hold out any hope of a relationship with a REAL woman, then we should probably avoid Bubbles entirely.
* TheRealMe pauses for a moment as he considers this. *
Uh, I think this part goes… here!

*holds up thumb at arms length, closes one eye*

Yup...this is where it goes alright *mutters under breath* sonuva.....gopher humping....
Umm...pass me my hammer....
Seems to me what we need here is a real live working model with which to compare...
*looks around*
Where are the womenfolk of this boat when you need 'em?
*shouts* C'mon....it's in the name of science...

Yeah, right, Safe. That's going to happen. (Not the comic, the live model thing.)
But what I WILL do is help you (insert chinese phrase for "moronic primative baboons" here) out. Hand me those.
*Serenity takes the body parts, begins to assemble poor Bubbles (very creative name there, TRM)*
No, hand me the smaller ones. You guys don't deserve the bigger ones. No, smaller.
*Puts Bubbles together in under 60 seconds.*

Well I read through some more after posting this and it appears that the editors of ISBA (or whatever it is) have apoligised for grouping those two rude fans in with the rest of us, but still it looks like the damage has been done by their posting negative reviews on the site
Hopefully it will all be sorted out for the better, but it just goes to show that not all Browncoats are the nice people you'd think.
Being a fan is one thing, as is showing your support to the movie, but going off on vendettas against people that offend us (intentional or otherwise) is certainly only going to bring bad press
