Dear Next Door Neighbor,

If your car has a horrible, high-pitched, repeating squeaking noise coming from your engine, a noise reminiscent of a hundred tiny mice being horrendously tortured—for the love of all that is good and holy in this world, do not let it run for twenty minutes before driving off.

Yes, I realize it’s cold. It’s New England, it’s winter, it gets cold. I realize you’d like to drive away in a toasty warm car.

However.

I would like to be able to refrain from STABBING MYSELF IN MY OWN FUCKING EARDRUMS to make the HORRIBLE FUCKING RINGING NOISE STOP.

Either suck it up and drive away in a frigid car, or get that fucking noise fixed.

Not Slashing Your Tires Yet,
—Me
