We are of like mind sir,
Similar experience- i was picking a girl up for a our 3rd date and she asked if her friend(who was staying the weekend with her) could come along, seeing as we were just going to see a movie before i had to head out to some prior obligations i said sure, no prob.
When they came out of the house i heard my dates friend say "pssh-thats his car?...whatever" and my date replys while rolling her eyes "Yeah, i know right"
Strike one.
So i proceed to open the pass door and pop the seat forward to let the friend in the back, she gets in and my date follows her into the back seat. Now it has become me chauffeuring to girls around like i'm a taxi.
Strike two.
We proceed to drive to the theatre where she complains to the person she is talking on the phone with that she will have to call them back because the stupid car she is in doesnt have air conditioning and we have to drive with the windows down.(It was May, and about 80 degrees outside)
After buying my dates and my tickets to the movie, my date asks "wheres Aubrys ticket?" I point to the counter, "They sell them right there"
They both shake their heads and my date says "Omg......you are so fucking cheap!"
Strike three.
At this point i walked over to the ticket line handed my tix to a couple in line and proceeded to leave those spoiled bitches where they stood. They were so engrossed in their text messaging they didnt even notice me leaving.
Oh and my so-called piece of shit car was a fully built 1969 camaro, with new interior, fully primered ready for paint.
Theres only so much disrespect one man can take.

I think your actions were completely justified. People should be thankful for favors done for them, and not complain about them, looking a gift horse in the mouth and all that.
HAHA I must applaud your actions OP. You where completely justified in this case. I cannot stand people who are ungrateful if the favours people do for them.
Justified as hell. You tried to help her out, all she did was *****, if she doesn't like your car that much, she can walk.
I would have given her a warning first.
"Look, you don't HAVE to ride with me. If you don't like it I can let you out right here."
But hey, it's your car, your rules.
Wouldn't call it a friendly action or anything, but it's not bad in any way either. It's just normal.

Yeah, that's pretty extreme. So you have a shit car, and she observed as much. My brother always makes jokes about how shit his car is and he likes to laugh about it. This girl probably thought she was being playful. However, if I am to give you the benefit of the doubt and say that she was deliberately being snide and offensive, you could at least have given some indication that you are an overly sensitive child first, so she could have a chance to modify her behaviour.
While it depends a bit on how far you were from your destination, your actions were just rude and uncalled for. I mean, she "disrespected" your car? Really? You need to get the fuck over yourself.

She disrespected him, multiple times, as he was going out of his way to do her a favor. Definitely not being an "overly sensitive child", he was being a gentleman until she made it clear that she was an inconsiderate *****.manic_depressive13 said:

Carry on sir.
Ok. Admittedly, kicking her out the car was a dick move on my part, but I'm more so talking about the circumstances rather than just the action itself. She was on her way to work. For all I know, she might have been in at risk of losing her job for being tardy thanks to me making her walk, and I don't really wish that upon anybody, even if a girl is being a class A *****.
Another thing was that she upset me at a bad time. I had a heated argument with my English teacher that morning about how her grading methods are unfair and stupid (as far as I'm concerned, they're retarded), and since I felt wronged, I was more or less discontent and irritable the entire day. It's possible that I might not have reacted in such a manner to that girl's quips if I was in a better mood that day, but like I said, I've been meaning to kick someone out of my car for complaining.
On the other hand, her losing her job would be quite the lesson in appreciation and gratitude. Just sayin'.
And for all those wondering if my car really is just that crappy, it really isn't. I mean, it works just fine, besides the fact that it needs an alignment. The interior isn't obscenely dirty or torn up. The exterior does have a few dents and scratches, including the trunk nearly being mashed in to some extent, but nothing too serious. It's an old Honda Civic that has and is still serving me well.
The problem is simply pop culture these days. Everyone wants to be riding around in some spiffy car that makes heads turn. Ladies want to be seen stepping out of a Rolls Royce, Benz, Lexus, and other shit that regular guys just can't afford.
All I'm saying is that if you don't want to be seen or ride in my car, your ass can walk.

I totally agree with what you did. I have done it before and will do it again. You don't like my car? Then you don't have to ride in it. I apply it to the littlest things anymore because I'm sick of it. If they ***** about the music, STFU. If they complain about the heat / A.C. STFU. Almost anything. I don't have the money for a new car, mine works fine for me, you don't like it? Walk.
My ex had a really old car, the kind that needs the passenger door opened from the inside and only has 4 seats instead of 5. I used to make fun of it too, but that doesn't mean I liked or disliked him because of the car. It was just a harmless joke, and he joked about it too.
In other words, she probably wasn't trying to be malicious but I guess I wouldn't know what her tone of voice was like. Maybe you should of tried talking to her and explaining that you didn't like what she said instead of just kicking her out. Now it seems like you're the jerk when actually she should have apologised to you.

So, you were already upset, and then you antagonize the next person to upset you?shitoutonme said:
And now you go and make a thread on a forum trying to get people to justify what you've done?
What you have here is a guilty conscience.
Yes, it is rude for her to have pointed out the flaws of your car, but its just as rude to take out your frustration with your English teacher and other life problems on this girl.
At least, that's how you feel deep down, or you wouldn't have made this thread. People don't just make threads like this unless they want approval for their actions, and you yourself have voiced doubt on the matter.
You should suck up your pride and go explain what had happened that day, that what she said about your car upset you, and give a good, sincere apology.
Even if she is the biggest jerk in the world and responds terribly, you can then walk away from this matter with a clean conscience.
Though you should probably try to look for more pleasant people to hang out with in the future if this kinda thing keeps happening.
To put it out there, I did something in the same vein today. This morning, I managed to get an appointment for meeting my potential future neurosurgeon. And then my class went from 8:30 to 2:00 without a lunch break. So, I'm upset by people poking around in my head and am hungry as Hell. I'm not the nice Erana right now.
Then, after class, I was trying to ask a professor if we were going to continue painting small paintings through the semester, when another student interjected with, "Small isn't bad," and went on to talk about his experience making works the size of postage stamps.
I responded by saying in a frank tone, "I'm not here for your input," and walking away.
It bothered me for a few hours, in which I was trying to justify my reaction by insisting that he was looking to argue with me by implying that I was trying to argue for large works of art and presenting an argument against it.
I called my mother up and told her that this has been bothering me, and she pointed it out, plain and simple: he was just trying to strike up a conversation with me, and I completely shut him down. And he seemed like a socially awkward guy, so being argumentative in conversation may be the only way he knows how to chat.
I resolved to apologize and while I'm prolly not going to see him 'til next week, I feel better about it already.
Nope. People use to ***** because I park a mile from any other vehicle. Well, I just bought a new car less than two years ago and I don't want door dents because nobody knows how to fucking park. Seriously...people...learn to park and open your door without hitting my car. So, I park waaaaay the hell out there and they complain about walking. Well, they don't want to walk, then don't get in my car.shitoutonme said:
So...too cruel? Not at all. Kick her out.
She didn't disrespect him. She just said he has a shit car. Her comments were at best an attempt at joking around, and at worst an attempt to convince him to save up for a new car because he's missing out on things like air conditioning and decent sound quality. The OP keeps mentioning that she thought she deserved a luxury car or something, but he never actually quotes her claiming to be embarrassed by the car. She was just pointing out that it might be time to replace it. Big deal.Shivhappy said:
In fact, I hope she did say something to the effect that she was embarrassed by the car, otherwise the assumption that she was complaining because (to paraphrase the OP) "***** didn't want to be seen in his car" is pretty appalling.
