Goodness gracious. 
Can’t even get in a good Grouch without getting called out on a T4.

Fine. If you insist. 
Last week, after a long day and a bunch of driving, I, alone in the car fell asleep at the wheel, spun around and ended up on the grass divider (between northbound and southbound). 
As if that wasn’t enough, a couple of days ago I was driving with my family in the car, slid on some ice, slammed into the concrete divider thing and, presumably, totaled that vroom-vroom. 
And the best Grouch of all? My work car barely has a scratch and requires repairs (starting at over $4,000), and the family beep-beepitty-beep-beep is the one that’s gone.

Hey, Big Talker, where the beep is YOUR Grouch, huh?

Oooooffffff don’t even get me started, this week after reading some BOTG I stupidly and naively got all seminary girl in the eyes and decided make a kabala not to listen to any podcast before I went to sleep, (now chill out and let me grouch before you turn into a whole t4 ranting rage monster) there’s no other way to define the past few nights besides for a total flopping darn it flippity beep-beep, how am I expected to fall asleep while reading some stupid Jewish book, what a dumb idea whoever thought of it, and don’t even get me started on going to sleep like a normal person by just lying in bed because big whop that’s all it is – laying in bed, last night was the worst of all at 3AM while the rest of my room was poofing in la-la land I was 
getting berated by my own clock (should’ve broke it when I had a chance). On top of all that one of my 
chavrusas went to his second cousin’s aunt’s cat’s daughters-in-law son’s father’s grandfather’s great nephew’s pidian haben which could’ve been nice except that even after learning for 2 hours by my flippity darn it self I can’t even tame my boredom or take a nap with some good ol’ daily wire or what not.

Hey grouchy grump,
yeah cause listening to Matt Walsh trash the living daylights out of all us lazy 20 year old P addicts sure brings a true smile and grin to my face.... so then I try moving over to knowles who thinks he's way smarter then he is quoting his stupid philosophy that any good yeshiva bochur could be mechaven to or he goes on bouncing around his qoutes from CS louis..... time for Klavan oh woops he's a pervert and a meshumad but also really funny....... I guess I'm just stuck with good old Ben....... but then he starts chatting about movies I know nothing about or some controversy betwwen some Hollywood actors I know nothing about........so we try Verdict with Teddy and Ben Fergeson tooting their horn for being right about things every good yeshiva coffee room hoker knew months before they said it.......and don't even get me started on brainless Hannity.........

Wow. And there I was, thinking my grouching about my car matziv was done…

The crash happened on our way back home from my parent’s, so the car was towed to a lot that was a 4 minute drive from their house. I tried to have my mother get the work material for my wife and I from the trunk, but their policy was to only allow the owner of the vehicle touch it, and with a letter from the insurance company to boot. Shoyn. 
I call insurance yesterday to find out when they were gonna tow the darn beep-beep, only to find out there’ve already brought it to their place- which is a 50 minute drive from my parents and an hour’s drive for me.
And we need the stuff by next week. And it’s bleeeeeeeping Friday today.
