Scroll through some of these low-res beauties and too-real reactions to being royally screwed by the infinite abyss that is our roadways, and laugh your way out of the tire repair shop because the struggle is real (and really deep).
Also the face you make at the tire repair shop.It’s fine. Everything is fine.“Never let go… of the wheel.”We’ve seen bigger.We got this!It’s a jungle out there.The roads in Hell are paved in… well, they’re paved.Relationship goals.“Where do you live?”
“Hole. I live in hole.”Carmageddon!This is good, right?…and I’m one car repair away from not being able to pay rent.Hmmm. (Don’t drink and drive.)American Horror Story: Michigan Winter.Turning lemons into really disgusting lemonade.A penny for your thoughts.I’m just going to stay here.Thelma and Louise just get us.“Sir, do you know how fast you were gliding? That was actually pretty impressive.”Detroit deals!Irony… can we fill potholes with irony?Michigan’s new uniform.Home is where the hole is.
