...my car almost didn't start. That's never happened before. It's only -15
papermint tiger
I say 'only' because tomorrow will be -29
papermint tiger
this will be fun
papermint tiger
I'm gonna let it warm up for a bit before i try going anywhere
Half Blood
do you plug it in at night? that will help it
papermint tiger
...plug it in
papermint tiger
is that a joke, i'm honestly confused XD
papermint tiger
anyway on the drive home it started bitching at me that it was cold
papermint tiger
which i find oddly hilarious XD
Half Blood
um hard to explain but isn't there a cord under the hood?
𝔯𝔞𝔦𝔫𝔟𝔬𝔴 𝔭𝔦𝔯𝔞𝔠𝑦~
oh yeah I've heard of this!
papermint tiger
o_o
papermint tiger
um. Wow, i had no idea that was a thing!
𝔯𝔞𝔦𝔫𝔟𝔬𝔴 𝔭𝔦𝔯𝔞𝔠𝑦~
like we don't do it around here because it usually doesn't get that cold but
papermint tiger
unfortunately i don't think we have an outdoor plug
𝕘𝕣𝕖𝕖𝕟 𝕤𝕝𝕚𝕞𝕖
hahaha oh no, welcome to uh
𝕘𝕣𝕖𝕖𝕟 𝕤𝕝𝕚𝕞𝕖
that!
papermint tiger
i will look for one but it's a Fiat
Half Blood
yeah there's a cord and if you buy an extention and plug it in it's supposed to keep your car warm
papermint tiger
woah
𝕘𝕣𝕖𝕖𝕟 𝕤𝕝𝕚𝕞𝕖
I've been joking with my dad that we'll have to start installing those little electricity poles if this weather keeps up
papermint tiger
but yeah this is an old house, i'm pretty sure we don't have any plugs outside...
𝕘𝕣𝕖𝕖𝕟 𝕤𝕝𝕚𝕞𝕖
my relatives used to all be in Saskatoon so
Half Blood
well, at least now you know
papermint tiger
that at least explains why one of my coworkers constantly has an electric cord coming out of their engine hood
papermint tiger
i had no idea why that was thre
Half Blood
i live in canada and we must do this
Half Blood
yes, that's what they're doing!!!
papermint tiger
...i don't even know how to google for this, i keep getting results about spark plugs
Half Blood
papermint tiger
thank you
Half Blood
very welcome
papermint tiger
well if i don't have one of these i will look into getting one. And then figure out how to plug it in, lmao
Half Blood
every car should have a cord under the hood
Half Blood
it's just a matter of finding it and having an extension and a place to plug it in
papermint tiger
like i said this is a Fiat. It's an Italian car, idk if it has one
papermint tiger
i'll try to look around
Half Blood
oh, i'd still think so, but idk
papermint tiger
well at least i found a site telling me where to look for it. No way i'm going out now though
Half Blood
yay!
papermint tiger
i'll go on a hunt in the morning XD then i still need to figure out a way to plug it in, lmao...
Half Blood
maybe sometimes at work like your coworker?
papermint tiger
oh, they don't plug it in there, it's just always dangling out
papermint tiger
even in the summer XD
Half Blood
oh, misunderstood
papermint tiger
no worries

This doesn't really fix the issue of it not starting in the first place, but it's a good idea to start the car and leave it on for a minute or two before you drive when it's so cold.
papermint tiger
oh yeah i sat in my car for almost five minutes before i tried driving off
Toss
Good.

tronja307020
