The French used to use it to say ‘T’es nul’ (you’re a zero/you suck) but I think it went out of style a bit.

Speaking of, is the finger also going out of style?

Some personal schad here.

So there's a lady at work whose car is identical to mine and multiple times I've mistakenly tried getting in her car but luckily it's always locked. One of these times it wasn't locked, so i get in and see a kid's carseat on the passenger side (I don't have a kid). It was very embarrassing, and you'd think I'd learn my lesson.

Well recently I locked my keys in my car and had to call out a locksmith. He shows up and I take him to where I think my car is, he does his thing and gets it open, I thank him and go in to get my keys out and first thing I see is the goddamn carseat.

The locksmith ended up being cool about it but was definitely freaking out at first. I told the lady and she got a kick out of it. Im still embarrassed over it, like only did I break into someone's car, I paid someone to do it. Luckily my car broke down yesterday and i cant afford to fix it, so I won't make that mistake again

i got into someone else's car about a week ago. it was the same exact make, model and color as mine. it was parked 2 spaces away from mine and i was coming in from the front so i wouldn't have been able to see the stickers on my back window. the only reason i realized that it wasn't mine is because my drink wasn't there and the stereo was different

Lipstick Apathy
Y'know. When I bought my car, I picked it out because it was a shade of blue that I don't tend to see anywhere else on the road, which I thought made it look neat and felt kinda special.

Then I started seeing "my car" everywhere-- same model and color. Turns out it wasn't as uncommon as I thought, I just never paid it much mind.

I still never forget where I park though :v:

Is that planter made of out styrofoam or something? The car pushes it out of the way like it's nothing, I would have expected a big box of cement filled with dirt to slow it down.

Someone here managed to speed out of a parking garage across four lanes into the opposing hotel. Along the way they destroyed a much larger planter than what you see there and a person walking down the sidewalk. Planters are only going to be like a few hundred pounds max and definitely will not save you.

ACCIDENTAL SHIT POSTER


My first car was a crappy white Saturn. Cue teen me leaving work, noticing that the key was a little sticky when I unlocked my car, only to get in and realize it wasn't my car at all. It was a long time ago, but I'm pretty sure I didn't notice until I tried to start it, and there wasn't a clutch pedal.

I remember reading a story of a woman who drove out of a parking lot with someone else's car because they were the same color and had the same key.

There's only like 6 keys for each car model so it's a dice roll if yours works in someone else's ignition.

One time I was sitting in the van while my mom was shopping, and some rando kid just walked up and got in, and started reading a magazine. Shy me finally got up the nerve to say something, and he realized it wasn't his vehicle and left. And then, five minutes later, his brother did the exact same thing :negative:

You'd think so, but at least I've managed to drive to work and leave by foot (I live within walking distance and usually walk), bypassing my car on the way out of the gate. It was the only car there, too.

Now, my brother, according to his wife, once managed to come home without his shoes.

Having just bought a car recently, it surprises me how much of it isn't getting exactly what you want vs. accepting what they have.

Want a blue McWhatever with this engine and trim? We don't have that. only one of that type gets shipped to this state maybe once a year. We have a black McWhatever, with none of the features you want.

Makes sense how every car is black and white nowadays.

Absolute worst colors for cars, black, can't see it as well at night more likely to get hit. White can't see it in a snow storm more likely to get destroyed by a plow.

I once dropped my car keys in a lake and didn't have a spare, so I had to get it towed to locksmith. The tow truck driver just asked if it's OK to send bill to the address registered with the vehicle, and locksmith didn't ask anything either. This experience gave me incredible feeling of security and I have been sleeping in my car ever since to make sure no one takes it and sends me the towing bill.
