Some prick smashed into my car at some point while it was parked, then drove off without leaving details.
And as there's nobody else to claim from, my insurance company are now saying it'll go down as me being at fault.

What's that, "interesting headline followed by a link in the bio"?
I guess we'll never know, as I shall be ignoring your link as if it was an old school friend asking me to join their pyramid scheme on Facebook.

Found a brewery party to go to tonight near us which is “party like it’s 1999” themed indie music.
