Default Anyone Got Ketchup?

Here's my story: Early this month I got my 2002 a4 coupe back from the shop, heads, cam, exhaust, t/c, gears, the whole thing. Thing is, I still had my Borla straight pipe so the car sounded like an NHRA funnycar. Not exagerating, this thing was crazy loud. Imagine, long tubes with a high compression h/c combo... deafening. Because of this I tried not to turn the car on in the mornings. I'd usually wait for the afternoons on weekends, but this last weekend I had recieved my new cat-back system. (Hooker exhaust from Autozone for $365, great buy!) I had to use my friends lift to put the mufflers on but the only window we had to do it was Saturday at 6am. So, saturday morning before 6am I had to start the car and take it in. Well, I guess that pissed one of my neighbors off. Sunday morning I turn the car on and I noticed it was very quiet but I thought it was just the mufflers. I go to my wifes car for something and I noticed something moving inside my muffler through the tips. It almost looked like butterfly valves from a distance so I said "no way, those mufflers dont have that." I looked closer and WTF!! Someone put potatoes in my exhaust! Luckily they were kind of loose and didnt cause any damage. Freakin bastards! I was pissed, I revved the $hit out the car so they would know that I found them and drove away. Now my car is definetely in the garage everynight no matter how late I come home. So, now I got 4 extra potatoes, anyone have some ketchup?

Since the ***** fucked with your car, I'm imagining he won't confront you. What a ******* vagina, ******* with another man's auto, what a ****.

The *** probably went and told his wife what he did and said "guess what I did" and she replied "you're a ******* ****".

I agree with the above posts, you gotta start some mayhem in the morning.
