Nice.
Now for a show of hands: how many of you read this story and thought, âman if I was the lucky fellow who got that car for 50p, Iâd sell it right away and finally buy that set of pipes/Dipper/etcâ

Apparently âdo whatever the f*** you wantâ doesnât mean what I thought.
It sounds like the dude is making some progress in his understanding. That woman has her work cut out for her.
Itâs things like this that remind me of the immortal words of
Bill and Ted
who said,
Be EXCELLENT to eachother.
yeah, Iâd have to admit to that right away, even being a car guy.
This smells suspiciously like a PR stunt. That âPissed wife sells philandering hubbyâs carâ story is a classic urban legend.
See snopes â The $50 Porsche, which even mentions the above incident.
I think itâs genuine. Most people who are going to listen to Kerrang (a digital radio station branded after a UK metal magazine) will already know about it. The station has fairly limited appeal and the âshock jockâ in question is pretty much a non-entity in national terms and has remained so since the incident.
Besides the stationâs target audience will almost all be aware of itâs existence through the magazine itâs named after, their website or the digital music video channel that also sports itâs name.
I donât doubt that a car was sold on eBay for a very nice price; itâs very well documented. But one has to wonder about the motivation. Quoting from the snopes article â "Either a fed-up wife found inspiration in a decades-old urban legend, or a shock-jock is up to more of the usual. "
That story has been around in spurious form both in the US and the UK (where it likely originated) for a long time, so itâs not inconceivable that this is a case of life imitating art.
Yeah, any guy who really thinks that means," yes dear, by all means, go do what you want", has a LOT to learn in interpreting our language.
Fine.
Suit yourself.
Whatever.
Oh, boy! Thx!

Now you can buy that zoot-suit youâve always wanted.
It can happen - in a manner of speaking anywayâŚ
I picked up my current set of uilleann pipes (new for $1,800) for all of $350 since the guy was turned off to piping by a really bad local teacher who messed up his reed. It was a steal!
And donât you feel guilty of that? 
djm
⌠heâs learning⌠the hard way.
Dang! I wish I woulda known about that (not that Iâve the money, but hey, I mighta talked some fool into loaning it to me⌠).
That would never happen with my wife because weâre both too literal in our thinking. Therefore she would never say âDo what the f*** you wantâ in the first place.
Itâs not a matter of hubby not interpreting correctly, itâs a failure of his wifeâs communication skills and a vast lack of knowledge about the nature of her spouse.
It reminds me of a story from my childhood.
