The meaning of the word "done".

Oy oy.

 

This was one of my posts on ECE today.  My friend Jimmy was giving me grief because I used the word "Done" to describe a Corrado project that someone is doing.  "Done" is a swear word in the Corrado community.  Nothing is ever "done" with a corrado with very few exceptions.  Below is the post describing the incident.  It was kinda funny.

It can also mean that you just totalled it by driving it into a tree. The less known meaning, and possibly the one that describes my Corrado best, pertains to a particular project. At the moment, the engine work on my Corrado is "done". By "done", I mean that I'm not working on it at the moment, and it is at least functioning within acceptable parameters, but that it might break at any moment sending me to a firey death and thus changing the definition of "done" to the second one I list above.

Thanks for keeping me real and reminding me what an ass I am. I need that pretty much every moment of the day.
