  actually, we're writing a book. . . .

Not sure what you're asking, Oliver.
 
And.... we were together for eight years and.... then she threw me out....
 
And... it's mildly humorous to refer to a car as a chick magnet because it broke down so much I got to know the Parts Girl well... Not worth a belly laugh or guffaw, but maybe a slight smile or chuckle.
 
And... it's also mildly humorous to me that finding parts for a guy is a way to seduce him...
 
That's all I can think of. Maybe no one here shares my sense of humor!
