Some days, my car doesn't give a sh*t if I have to go anywhere. Other times, it will care, like if I have to go shopping (my car responds and turns over when I mention going shopping-EVERY SINGLE TIME), but other than that, I have to sit there in a blazing hot car, jiggling the stupid key in the ignition just to get the damn thing to start. AND here's the kicker...IT WON'T START UNLESS I GO ALL CROOKED AND START IT WITH MY LEFT HAND! Not my right, cause apparently, this car is so freaking bi-polar, it wants to be started with my LEFT hand.

It's a pain in my ass and I have no idea how many other owners of this particular vehicle have dealt with the same thing.
