I am N/C with my ex of nine years so finding out this info was pure serendipity.
Seems he went fishing last weekend. When he jumped out of his vehicle to put his boat in the water, he forgot to put the truck in park.
Running truck, trailer and boat all slipped into the lake.
Answer: "SPLASH"....THAT is the sound karma makes.

It sounds as if him not ever learning how to park his ass at home being contentedly married with a family of his own...
is a bad habit that's beginning to bite him in the tailpipe.

Did he ever fuss at you, telling you not to "flood" the carburetor or the engine?
Do you think maybe his truck was tired of being guilty by association?
Obviously getting "hitched" isn't his strong point.
And neither is going over the hill...
Well he's certainly used to sacrificing actual necessities in favor of mere temporary recreation and entertainment.
I've heard it said that "if you give a man a fish you feed him for a day, but if you teach a man to fish you feed him for a lifetime"... But I never heard what happens if you give a FISH a man or his truck and trailer...
Karma also sounds like a whopper of a fish story he'll have to tell of the "one that got away!"
I hope it wasn't a Chevy "Avalanche"...
Next time, tell him he ought to go "P" (pee v. "Park") BEFORE getting in the boat!
Kinda gives new meaning to the expression "bassackwards"!! (Which is Texas slang for "ass backwards" ways of doing things!)... Although I wonder if it was actually bass or steelhead that he was fishing for...

Cephastion - You are on commentary fire!
(Not a Chevy)
I recognize this could happen to anyone because sometimes stupid stuff just happens in life.
However, this man has taken any opportunity to make my (and his children's) life difficult. His BS never seems to end.
(and I am counting down the months now until the last child ages out....five more months).
So the coincidence that a coworker of a friend just happened to be on the dock to see it all (and report it back and take a pic) is uncanny.
I was definitely meant to find out.
