Like I said... it was like being that guy that just sits around and watches.

Holy shit dude. You just described my life. Well, except from the perspective of being one of the people who actually helps working on the cars, while observing those who just show up to "watch".
I'm 100% serious. If I recorded every time I helped my friend work on a car, your description is exactly what would be viewed. Random people show up at the most inopportune time, and don't have the mechanical abilities to actually help. Most of the time when we're doing shit we don't need to really concentration on, if friends of friends are present they are likely asking random Honda related questions, which I am pretty much a master of ('88-'00 Hondas anyways), or my friend is making random movie quotes (pretty much his & him siblings' "thing"). Not quite specific on the car thing you posted, but it certainly can get there with some people, mostly rich kids who think they know what they are talking about, but are too egotistical or high too to realizing the bullshit they are talking about. And literally if I had a $1 for every time my friend and his sister quoted a movie to me, I'd be a god damn millionaire, and I'm not exaggerating.
I'm going to have to check this out for sure.
