Seeing the car you sold out in the wild
(lemmy.world)
Hoo Tee Dee!
I always heard it as 'woo-teenie'.
I may be making this up, but I thought it was Utinni?
100% Utinni
Absolutely and definitely `Utini`
EDIT: Looked it up. It's Utini/Utinni.
Egg? What egg?
I had a 1998 firebird when I was 19 (thank you mom). There’s a dude in the neighborhood I live in now, 20 years later, who has that car.
I stopped him one day and said, “hey, I lost a car like this in a flood ages ago and traded it for an ugly little Escort. You think this is it?” “Haha, I doubt it bro, but it was a flood car my dad bought like 15 years ago so, maybe? He got it pretty far away from here though.” I said, “Bro, I have the VIN in an old file. For fun, let’s check it.”
Sure enough, it was my old car. Funny thing is, his dad bought it in Missouri and I had it in WV. Now it’s in Va in the same neighborhood as me.
What are the odds?
Buy it back
I lost a car like this in a flood ages ago and traded it
Would you be able to clarify how you traded car that you lost?
My guess is that “lost” didn’t mean completely gone or destroyed, but “totaled” aka damaged to the point it would cost more to fix than to just buy a new car. But “totaled” cars can often be sold for scrap, or sold to be repaired to the point where they are at least drivable, even if certain systems don’t work or there’s a risk of issues (like mold or electrical problems) down the road. Which is apparently what happened here.
Ah, makes sense.
That's no car. It's a trailer.
It's a cyber van
Suuukaaa
They're Slavic now?
What if they're not actually short but have been squatting all this time!

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Separatist systems:
Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
-
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
-
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
-
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
-
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
-
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
-
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
-
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.
