He went to an Internet discussion forum on Ford Mustangs and bragged how he had taken a customer's car on a 140 mph joyride. It turns out that the car owner read the mechanic's post, confronted the repair shop's owner and got the guy fired. I'd guess the car owner would call this a not so funny thing that happened on the way to a forum.
