Reminds me of when my breaks started failing on my 1990 Chrysler LeBaron so I got a job at a break repair place long enough to fix them then I quit.

those bits on a car are called "brakes". When a brake breaks, it's a broken brake and needs to be fixed.

Thank you. That's one of my little pet peeves I see online; that and when people are trying to say lose but type loose.

But then all the sudden everything went wrong on accident.

*alright is the wrong word you meant to use there to rile someone up. "all right" is technically correct, and you'll want to avoid that.

  • also, best if you use two different theres. "their they're, it'll be alright" gets you where you want to go much worse.
