remember my previous post, car-cinogenic? well, the disease has spread.

the subject, before :



the subject, after :





note the increased concentration of metallic pustules on the front, top, and back of the subject. note also the emergence of previously unseen black scabs on the subject's flanks, taking on the appearance of geometric bodies.

my colleague has a theory. it goes as follows : the owner of the car is currently undergoing a messy divorce. desperate to keep his assets out of the post-matrimonial maw, he is desperately defacing his car in an attempt to devalue it.

initially, i thought this hypothesis rather far-fetched. if anything, my guess would be that my colleague had the cause and effect all mixed up. i.e., rather than the divorce explaining the car, the better theory would be the car resulting in the divorce.

but my supposition suffers from a fatal flaw - it fails to explain what would possess someone to do a thing like that to his car. then i figured, if the owner of the car shows the same level of aesthetic appreciation in women as he does in car decorations - well, then, maybe it wouldn't be that surprising if he was experiencing relationship problems.

in any case, true or no, my brain needs to hang on to something in an attempt to rationalise what my eyes have seen. so all i can do is wish the poor man a expeditious and satisfactory conclusion to his post-marital proceedings, so that our carpark can return to a state of normalcy. bonne chance, owner of ugly car.
