Funny story:
When I saw the check engine light on the Starship Enterprise funny above I remembered this funny incident:
We had to purchase a new car in April, because the other one was costing us more time, headaches, money and trips to the repair shop than Carter has liver pills. So, we bought a new car and new cars these days have an array of computer-like screens and no physical "gauges" per se, just displays that LOOK rather like the car gauges of old.
So I am driving around for several weeks in this electronic marvel (roll eyes) and my DH says: "Have you filled it up with gas yet?".
I say to DH, nope, haven't had to! It really gets good gas mileage, it still has a half a tank.
He looks rather puzzled and says, are you sure? I sad, yes, I checked it today when I drove it, and it is half full still, honey!".
So he goes out to the garage, and I of course follow him out there. I get in the driver seat and turns on the car and the cute little, pretty colored make believe gauges come up on the computer screen. I point to the gauge on the left and say "See, it is half full".
He checks it and says: "That is the temperature gauge, sweetie, the FUEL gauge is on the right and it is nearly on empty"!
(ME: Deer in the headlights look.)
That is what happens when you assume fuel gauges are where the fuel gauges were on your old car!! LOLOLOL
OR it is time for a new eye exam! We are still laughing about that one. I like funnies with lots of milage.
