Sounds like a golden opportunity to me.

Options:
a) swap on your donut in 6 minutes flat, demonstrating your mad vehikular skillz, and she thinks about giving you le sex.
b) pull out your tire patch kit and air compressor, fix the tire, and she definitely gives you le sex.
c) teach her how to change a tire, and despite being annoyed at you for being condescending and superior, probably still lets you have some of le sex.

your on the date now? cause posting instead of giving her attention is not a one way ticket to le sex, unless the force is strong with you.

Hey just so I can start an arguement and useless debate, I noticed you used the adjective "pops" in description of your tire...which leads me to ask what PSI are you running your tires at?

While we're hating flats, can we divert some of that hate to donut spares as well. I don't care if they're large, I don't care if they're heavy. Full-sized spare, dammit!

which means you save weight in your car by not having a spare tire haha, donuts suck as spares though, full size or bust.

I feel the pain, had a screw in front driver side tire, no issue. I then got a hole (somehow no screw) in the rear right tire. I had to use the donut. I laughed hysterically when I pulled it out. I don't know about anyone else but mine seemed to hum like mad when I was driving. My top speed was 25 and I went about 2 miles so I didn't overuse it.
