Funny you should say that,
if I tried using an ATM from my car I'd likely get done for ram-raiding.
Does that make me a chick? (In the parlance of our times).
This is random but it has to do with an ATM machine...
Once, my cousin and a few truck drivers we know were eating at Taco Bell (I think that's where it was...). One of them is pretty old fashioned and I think he's going senile or something. I don't know. Anyway, they had finished eating and the possibly-senile one was trying to stuff his trash in the ATM machine.
Driver: "Mijo, adonde pones la basura?" (Boy, where does the trash go?"
My Cousin (trying not to laugh): "Es el ATM!" (That's the ATM machine!)
Driver: "Ah, si es cierto!" (Oh yeah! That's true!)
Odd...
