I was the only guy at the marina showing up in a compact Nissan. Got a lot of shit for it from the raised up pickups.
Yet I always had that extra $20 for beers.
It's a mystery.
And if they said "yet I always had extra money for video games", would you have assumed they were playing games while driving? Would "extra money for a bathroom remodel" translate into them doing the actual renovations in the passenger seat while driving?
Imagine making the assumption that just because they can afford to drink, they obviously did it while/before driving.
You appear to be German speaking. That is not what my comment meant: the beer was purchased on the way home and consumed in my home. We would often cross paths at the nearest gas station to the marina where I'd buy a case and they'd only be able to fill their tanks.
Okay I was just giving you the benefit of the doubt. My mistake, clearly. I have no business being cordial given your apparent anger on this subject. So: argue into the ether over an anecdotal memory I have about having a vehicle with fuel economy that saved me money.
Imagine thinking a straw man argument matters…
They didn’t say anything about drinking and driving, why do you think it’s okay to assume it?
