Wheel Alignment Bullshit

I'm the kind of person that, when the car is making a weird noise, will turn up the radio and pretend it's not there, until such time as the car explodes or something goes horribly, horribly wrong.

Tee hee hee. ::blushes::

Whatever.

So, I've had a slow leak in one of my tires for a few weeks... months... ummm some time now, and my dad finally made me and I finally decided to buy new tires.  They had a deal, buy three, get one free.  I thought this was great.

I was not prepared for the 64 effing dollar *wheel alignment* that will "prevent your tires from wearing unevenly".

For those of you like me who didn't know, there are 3, count 'em, 3 (!!!) types of alignments (according to tirerack.com, whatever the hell that is) and it effects the suspension and steering systems (duh, like I couldn't guess that one on my own).

COME ON, PEEPS.  WHAT THE EFF IS THAT BULLSHIT ABOUT?

Honestly, what are they going to do, put my tires on crooked?  Wouldn't you think that a wheel alignment would come STANDARD with replacing not one, not two, not three, but ALL the goddamn* tires? Unreal.  My dad I just dropped a significant amount of money, and they have to swindle us out of more.  That is unreal and unfair, and boy if I were someone else, I would have told them off.

I should write a strongly worded letter.

*I should probably stop cursing God, because even though my dad got me a pass, I'm sure it can be taken away.
