A Real Life Internet Moment

Tired Roof

Today I had a bit of a real life, sort of internet meme type of incident while looking out the window of starbucks. It's the kind of thing you see from a photograph in russia or some other former communist country. Or even from one of the koreas' or an island nation. I saw this small car (photo above) with 6 big tires on its roof. Yup, 6 tires that seemed to have barely enough space on top to share for the trip. Being the area where i'm from, I would'nt be surprised if they were for some sort of farming vehicle/machinery. I had to point it out to my Gf who was sitting across from me with her back to the window. As I was hurrying to take the photo, I told her, "Look! A hardcore mexican! With tires on its' car roof!" She just shook her head is disbelief. This is the kind of thing you only see in viral internet photos. (ooh, maybe I should post it on my Instagram or on Imger!) Photograph- Taken/Owned by me, Plethos

I was helping a friend move into the house me and a few other friends had together. She had to get her mattress to our house. We took a rope and secured the mattress to the top of the car. Then we held the rope firmly and away we went. Were the tires secured in anyway? it's hard to tell.

i think they did have ropes on it like a mattress. but these are not light tires, i know they aint going on a off road truck. i also wonder if the roof caved in at al.

@Plethos I didn't know they did that! I guess that's why they say chickens are crazy . . .thus El Pollo Loco.

@much2say - or pollo pendejo ! or when it rains, theyll drown themselves by trying to drink all the rain coming down. not all chickens are dumb, but when you spot one, you may as well make kfc out of him.
