Ah, almost an inverse problem to the one I have with hubster and car
repairs. Something will be wrong with the car and I'll suggest "Could it
be the fragglezack??" and I'll get back this "Nawwwwwww, it isn't that.
I'm going to look at the dingsboop...that's gotta be it." After much
head scratching and perhaps wasting time and money, it always ends up
being the fragglezack I suggested in the first place! He should always
just listen to me in the first place and get it over with, y'know?
