Rain and Profligacy

Rain is the great equaliser of cars. If you're a slacker like me, it's 'Nature's Free Car Wash'. If you're diligent in keeping your car clean, it's less of a cause for celebration.

I always found it hilarious that people would get frustrated that they had just washed their car and it was raining. Now, I can relate to the thought process that goes 'Dammit, I could have been sitting on my ass on the couch last Sunday instead'. THAT makes total sense (to the extent that regretting ex-post outcomes ever makes sense).

But the people who are irritated because the rain will ruin their wax job, leaving water streaks? Those folks are truly living on a different planet to me.
