Hey Oppo, remember when my Tipo pulled a Tipo and caught fire? No? Ah yeah, that's because it kinda happened today, hahah... It wasn't anything major though, just some sparks and a little smoke, plus a reminder that's best to leave some stuff to the pros.

Long story short, I took the dashboard down today and the wiring was in worse shape than I'd assumed. I tried tinkering with it, but it started smelling burnt and a couple sparks flew off, so I gave up, plugged everything back in and drove it half a block to a friend's shop. Should be ready by tomorrow. I'm no good with electrics, it seems.

"Fuck the Pros."

That's what I said when my 4L60e shit itself (BEHIND A V6!!!). When that happened, I did what any sane person would do, and brought another from the junkyard and proceeded to do a rebuild. It was a year long oddessy, but I don't regret it. I even kept some of the clutch steels as battle prizes.

...I also kinda came crawling back to said pros when I realized I couldn't put it in myself when it was done. Heh. So, thanks. Fuck you guys. But, you know, thanks.

Apparently your strengths are mainly focused on "Random acts of kindness"

Maybe, though I'm also pretty good at making bitching noodles, like my Lamen Double special, which is two lamens combined instead of one!
