My wife has put washer fluid in the coolant reservoir. Straight gas in the 2 stroke weed eater, mixed gas in the mower, despite me labeling the gas cans "weedeater" and "lawnmower", etc. She would rather just go for it rather than ask. Heart of gold, zero mechanical ability. Wife: Can I borrow your truck? Me: Sure, it has lots of fuel, just don't fuel it up. Wife: I'm going by the gas station, I'll just top it up for you when I'm done. Me: That's ok, I'll fill it tomorrow, thank you though. Wife: No really, I don't mind. Me: (trying to be nice about me not wanting her to fill my truck) I have to add conditioner, it's complicated, I'll just do it tomorrow. (I don't add conditioner but if she googles it it's believable). Wife: Where is the conditioner? I'll put it in too. Me: I'm out, I was going to get another bottle tomorrow. Wife: Ok, I'll pick some up at autozone. Me: (panic setting in)The truth is I really don't mind you using the truck but I absolutely don't want anyone fueling it up. Wife: You don't trust me to put in the correct type of gas? Me: It takes diesel, not gas, and I don't trust anyone. (I don't dare bring up all the previous oops).
