Here's one for all you animal lovers out there
It must first be said that I personally don't really care if a coat is made of fur or not. While I'm not a fan of the fur trade as such I find that I usually have more important things to worry about than the possible suffering of a hypothetical animal millions of miles away that had to die for such and such a stranger to be warm on a winters afternoon. However, the events that took place on this fateful day have led me to believe that karma must have played a role somewhere.

It was a cold brisk winters afternoon when myself and a few friends decided to go shopping around Leeds, and after a few good hours we had all piled into the car, new purchases in hand. We had also however picked up some free samples of some Rowntree fruit squishy things, that after tasting was decided that they were infact free because they were shit. It was agreed that the obvious way to rid ourselves of these monstrosities to the taste buds was obviously to put them under the wheels of the car, drive forward and see what happens, in the hopes of making a mess of the cars parked next to us.

Now at this moment, walking through the car park was a woman who looked very reminiscent of Cruella Deville. She had a big fur coat looking like it had come straight from a bears back, Crocodile skin hand bag, the works. She was a one woman abattoir, and an advertisement of the notion that the fur looks better on the animal. And so, karma played its role.

The car was rolled forward, and we listened in anticipation of the four little pops that would have meant that the packs had burst onto the cars next to us. But they never arrived. Instead, the lids had flown off, and just like hammering your fist on a tube of toothpaste, two long jets of luminous green squishy shot out like missiles hitting the woman square in the face before working their way down her coat.

Fir?
Trees don't make good coats. Try fur.

Also, there/their errors really get my goat, so to speak.

I'm going to make a comment that's not based around spelling
Nice story :)

Ugh.
Is nobody else annoyed that this little shit thinks it's acceptable to mess up other people's cars?

Yeah yeah, get a sense of humour...it's only funny when it's not your fucking car.

Alright alright
Im sorry. In my defense it was quite late, I was tired and I could see that something was wrong but couldn't quite put my finger on what it was. I am equally pedantic about spelling which is what is even more annoying about it

*abattoir *rolled *burst *on to(?)

I wouldn't have bothered, but seeing as you said you're a spelling pedant yourself.
