Default Needed somewhere to vent, Ran over a freaking brick...

I was taking my friend home, and on the way there I ran over a brick. Some ******* left a brick laying in the middle of the road in a darkspot around a corner where no one could see it. I wouldn't have hit it except it was the middle of the night, and I didn't see the brick until it was basically just about to go under my tire. Well needless to say, it blew out the sidewall of my tire and cracked my wheel.

So it's time to go wheel and tire shopping a little early. I took out the brick though, cut it clean in half and then the other half got turned into dust basically.

Brick = 1 Wheel and Tire = 0

I swear if I ever see any kids putting **** like that into the middle of the road, I am gonna shove whatever it is down their throats.

Been there done that! I've run over a brick before but only because it was thrown at my car from some kid on the side of the road and it would have hit my car if I hadn't slammed on the brakes.

wat wheel was it. hope it was cheap. some dumbass dropped a big rock out the back of the truck, i saw it, and dodged it, but the best i could do was drive over top of it, and have it come right under the middle of the car, so it would miss the lip and what not. as i ran over it, i heard a big CLUNK, and my exhaust got really loud. i was like ****!!! came home, hole in my muffler. grrrr.
