So, I'm renting this room in a semi-detached in Woodbridge until my house in Windsor sells. I go home Friday night and return Monday morning. I figure... I gotta wash my car once a week, might as well do it while I'm trapped in my little room during the week, instead of when I'm at home and have many other better things to do.
So, last week I brought my bucket and supplies with me, and washed my car on Tuesday.
I went to do it again today, and the landlady stops me, and says I can't. She says her husband told her not to let me, cause I'm not supposed to wash my car in the driveway. They're Ukrainian, and don't speak good english, and I can't figure out if this is some odd rule of this f***ing s***hole suburbia, or if they just misunderstood something.
I asked what's the problem, and she said that you can't because of the chemicals.
It's soap!
The neighbors can complain.
About what? It's your driveway. Some dude down the street parks a f***ing dumptruck on his driveway, and I saw him painting the dump body one day! And I can't wash my car with soap?
One of the other guys renting a room here, backed her up. Says you're not supposed to, because the neighbors can complain.
About what! I've been doing this for 14 years, and nobody has ever said anything.
Am I missing something here? Is there some kinda bylaw in Woodbridge/Vaughan that says you can't wash your car with soap and water in the driveway?
Cause I couldn't give a s*** if the neighbors don't like it. They can eat my ass.
Yeah, I'm a little annoyed. <_<
