Disney Decorated


A guy brought in his wife's pickup truck for servicing. Every Disney trinket you've ever seen at the Golden Arches was glued to both sides of this truck along with purple carpet liner and purple painted hubs. I couldn't even put a fender cover on it. I leaned on it, and one of the things squeaked, and another lit up. While I was under it, something started singing 'It's a Small World'.
I shot out from under, but there was only silence. Most people see something like this and laugh with delight, 'Oh, that's so cuuuuuuute'. Not me, I picture the scene from Stephen King's 'It' with the clown saying. 'We're all floating here, We're all waiting for you'. :)

I think "It's a Small World" is enough to do that to anybody. *ggg*

Yea, Jordan, and I've been around the block in this business a few times. This was a first. :)

Good Lord, I would've taken off running for my life...

Worse than that, Raine, the customers who own it haven’t picked it up. I’ve had it in the shop for two nights. I keep expecting to come into the shop in the morning, see half the characters missing from one of the fenders, and little squeaks emanating from dark corners. :)))

Lol Bernard, that is awesome! I'm with you--I'd be charging them extra for the pain, fear and suffering having such a thing near me would cause. *shudder*

Thanks, D, I'm glad you got a laugh out of it. This one will go on my Wall of Weird. :)
