Topic: And the winner for Dumbass of the Day is.....

MR. GAINSBOROUGH!!! *cheers and whistles from the audience*

I'd like to thank my brain for this award as if it had been there, this achievement would not have been possible.

Why this sudden burst of self-insultation, you might ask? I tell you.

Cysa had loaned me his DVD of "Clerks" not too long ago. Hilarious, of course. It had been a while, so yesterday he told me he was gonna pick it up. I was gonna be at school or work all day so I told him to pick it up from Burger King.

Today arrives. I forget to bring the DVD. Cysa is forced to return home with nothing in his hands except a crappy hamburger from the heat chute as compensation for my idiocy. BUT THE FUN DOESN'T STOP THERE!!!

I decide about 45 minutes ago to drop the DVD off at his house myself. I get directions and get to his house fine. I give him the DVD, walk back to my car...and find that it is locked. The key is in the car. BUT THAT'S NOT ALL!!! Not only are the keys still in the ignition...but the engine is running. Also, my radio is on and the brights are blazing. I AM A COMPLETE MORON. The only thing that isn't on in my car is the AC. (Thank god)

So, Cysa gives me a ride home and, luckily, my Mom has a set of keys. (Which is fortunate because my dad is in Michigan at this time.) She asks me what the hell I've been smoking to do this, gives me the keys and Cysa drives us back to his house. I get in the car and, obviously, an eighth of a tank in the truck is gone.

The Moral of the Story: Don't be stupid.

Just be glad YOTC wasn't involved or the culmination of events would have ended with the car totalled.

I did that once, but um, it was at my house and my mom got home from work like 10 minutes later.

I keep an extra set of keys in my wallet now.

That is really funny. I am sure you were totally frustrated though when it happened.

I have locked myself out of my house more times than I can count.. I don't think I can remember ever locking myself out of my running car though. It probably has happened though. I can be a real dingbat sometimes.

That could only be funnier if you also somehow managed to run yourself over.
I don't know how to be sexy. If I catch a girl looking at me and our eyes lock, I panic and open mine wider. Then I lick my lips and rub my genitals. And mouth the words "You're dead."

Due to this suggestion, I am now taking the "Valet key" (It works on the ignition, but not the back hatch or the glovebox.. whatever) and putting it safely in my wallet next to the two dollar bill I have.

Of course, after doing this, I shall lock both my wallet AND keys in the car after getting fast food, since I keep my wallet out. It's a bitch to get your wallet in and out of your pocket in jeans with the seatbelt on.

Locked my keys in my GTO twice, sure is a pain in the ass to find a wire coat hanger sometimes.

Locked myself out of the house twice. One time, it was during winter after it snowed in the early morning. I went upstairs to the top deck to take pictures of the snow on the trees, and I was still wearing the clothes I slept in. I was lucky that there was an extending ladder for me to use, else I would have had to jump down to the lower deck. The snow would have broken my fall though, lol.

*sends comforting vibes and offers sugar wafers* I leave my lights on in the car at least twice a month. Sometimes all day. But I don't beat myself up about it...I let my parents do it for me ^-^

I locked myself out of the house so often my mom put in a keypad entry lock thingy. I used to sit on the porch for 4+ hours a day in the middle of winter cause I'd forget my key, and then forget to put the extra key outside.

Bah. That was pathetic. Not only did you fail to run yourself over, you didn't even trip or bang your shin or anything. How can you possibly consider that stupid when you haven't got giant scrapes all over yourself?

My car beeps at me annoyingly if I open my door with the keys in still, the dome light also flashes

Yes. Car beeping also helps.. though only if you don't bypass it by un-inserting the key fully... then forget to take them because you have a lot of other stuff in your hands.. D:

What? No, it didn't happen to me recently.

My car beeps at me also, but it must be out of my frequency of hearing or something because I never notice until -after- I shut the door...

MY Old VW Rabbit Had a nearly foolproff method to keep you from locking your keys in, the driver side door could only be locked from the inside if closed, or with the key from the outside.

My truck on the other had, well the little plastic latch on the rear windows is cheap and easily forced open.

I've never locked my keys in my car. I have locked my keys in my truck, once. My friend and I were having breakfast in my truck in the school parking lot, and they slipped out of my fucking pocket when I got out of the truck. The school maint. guy is fairly good at using a slim jim though, so I had them back shortly after the start of my 2nd hour when I realised I didn't have them anymore.

That's the way my old BMW is. It's an 82. One of the few 'nifty' features it has. The only power option on it is power side view mirrors, and power brakes, no joke. No anti-lock brakes, no power steering, no power locks, no power windows, didn't have a CD player, the A/C doesn't work, and at the moment, the engine is dead and sitting in several peices in my garage.

I know people at my school who would litterally shoot themselves before they owned a car like mine. Fucking whimps. Not to mention they wouldn't be able to drive a stick in the first place.
