    wife’s 2017 JK just had its tranny start whining today I was driving. After driving an hour. Won’t go back into a gear. Cools down. Gets back into gear. I tow it anyway. Low fluid? Demons? Daemons?

    Either way what a cluster. Wife is stuck in ATL, trying to get home. I’m stuck on side of road.

    Literally things “throwing money” could solve.

    I got promoted this week. Estimated +500-600 a paycheck every fortnight.

    It kicks in end of April’s check.

    FML.

    Sorry. not a shitpost. Just a sad 46 yo failure of a man with a pissed off alcoholicly angry wife.

      You can try biking sometimes. Clears your head, low maintenance, gives fresh thoughts. Mix it with microdosing lsd.

        very much depends on OP’s circumstances. It’s likely very impossible for them to do so, or dangerous. America sucks.
