Well he does seem like a big enough idiot that he could have problems with constantly banging his head into things...

You know you're probably right. I probably misjudged him. On the other hand, I don't think so...youtube tool was accurate.

The two are not mutually exclusive. In fact they are commonly found together...

The new "viral" business model. Look at what jackasses we are, we're having so much fun at work!

Youtube: "Yawn... kewl, brah." *clicks thumb up* (We made 3 cents! Score!)

Current clients: "This is how they treat my car?" (Launches yelp to find new shop.)


"Boss, profits are down thousands of dollars, but youtube is up thousands of subscribers, I'll call it a wash?"

"How much did we make from those thousand youtube subscribers?"

"Ahhhh.. It says here $12.14, gotta be a mistake. PootiePie makes millions."

I did the dreaded coolant tank swap - it lives up to its reputation. Afterwards, the coolant level sensor wasn't working so I went to the Porsche dealer to get a new one. They'll have to order it, but the trip wasn't a total waste as this was sitting in the showroom.
