Now press the lock button 12 times, just to be sure!!!

[–]BloominFunyun 160 points161 points ago

And make sure the horn honks every time, just to be sure sure. Never mind the fact you can lock the door BEFORE you close the door.

[–]RopeBunny 335 points336 points ago

Locking the door after you close the door makes it impossible for you to lock your keys in the car.

Just saying.

[–]MrGoodbytes 49 points50 points ago

Most German cars actually won't let the driver's door lock when it's open. It physically will not engage the lock unless the latch is closed. This makes it distinctly hard to lock the keys in the car.

[–]diuge 50 points51 points ago

I love these little car features.

Sometimes I spend five minutes wondering why the hell I can't remove my keys only to realize I'd forgotten to put the car into park.

[–]Raticide 18 points19 points ago

I did this once. Felt like a right retard. But I never had an automatic before.

[–]mrbucket777 1 point2 points ago

My dad and I rented a car yesterday and it took us a minute to figure out how to get the key out since we only have manuals lol

[–]ianp622 7 points8 points ago

It's twenty times worse when your automatic has stalled in the middle of the intersection and are wondering why you can't turn the ignition.

[–]ridger5 2 points3 points ago

Sometimes my car will stall if I'm at a stop and I crank the wheel all the way to the side to make a tight turn. The pressure on the pulley from the power steering pump reaching the block will drag the belt until the car stalls.

I am not even sure I can lock the doors before I close them on both my cars...

[–]rottenseed 2 points3 points ago

I used to lock my doors...until one night they bashed my window. I figured if they want something they'll get it. Might as well allow them to do it without the $300 damage.

[–]P1TA 8 points9 points ago

Better yet, save yourself the $300, lock the doors and don't leave valuables in your fucking vehicle.

[–]rexsilex 5 points6 points ago

I had my window bashed so they could steal a pack of cigarettes. The pack was empty.

[–]GangsterObama 3 points4 points ago

[–]Skwerley 10 points11 points ago

To keep people from locking their keys in their car, most modern cars have a mechanism that pops the lock if it's engaged when the door shuts.

[–]BloominFunyun 4 points5 points ago

I think this only works if the key is in the ignition. If you manage to throw them in the cup holder then I think you're screwed in that case. On the last 2 vehicles I've owned I've added a wireless keypad hidden on the vehicle so this becomes a non-issue for me. Haven't found a good place on my current car, but on the truck I had I attached it to the inside of the fuel door.

[–]captainmorgan23 7 points8 points ago

You guys are doing this all wrong, just get a car from the 90s that has push locks and 1 key that ONLY can open the driver's door, and doesn't allow you to push the locks down, only turn the key and lock it. Never locked out!

[–]arte444 7 points8 points ago

My 90's honda's I have to hold the door handle open (inside or outside) then push the lock button down. I'm pretty good at pressing it with my knee while holding the outside door handle. Maybe someone can illustrate this for me?

[–]hatestosmell 2 points3 points ago

My accord does that

[–]Skwerley 2 points3 points ago

Well my old roomate, my mom, and my GF all have a mechanism that if the car is locked from the inside, regarless of where the keys are, it unlocks as soon as the door closes. It's only the front seats though.

[–]assblaster7 6 points7 points ago

My car honks every time I press the lock button.

[–]pillowpants80 15 points16 points ago

Most cars you can re-program it yourself not to.

My 2000 Ford the procedure was something like: get in the car, turn ignition on, foot on brake, buckle and unfasten seatbelt 3x, foot off brake. You know, things that are common sense to stop your car from honking.

[–]mtheoryx 1 point2 points ago

Dufuq?

[–]odd84 2 points3 points ago

Read your car's manual. Toggling the beep-on-lock is usually just holding two buttons on the keyfob for a few seconds.

[–]GODDAMNFOOL 1 point2 points ago

I'm physically unable to lock the door with the door open since the tab won't go down. I can, however, put the key in the lock and lock ALL doors to avoid it making noise.

[–]solidsnakem9 1 point2 points ago

Be sure to press the lock button twice in a row so you can hear the honk and be sure it locked!

And next week, it's the Idling Diesel Engine Party!

[–]ToadShortage 39 points40 points ago

Oh mother fuckin... I used to live in an apartment complex, and I mean like, 20 3-story buildings of apartments. This douche had the giant ass diesel truck parked right outside my bedroom window (I was on the 2nd floor) And he would make sure he started it at about 430 every morning, and it would of course have to warm up for about 2 hours before he actually left for work.

When he finally did pull away I could hear him throughout his entire path to the main road. Infuriating.

[–]DoesNotGetCircleJerk 15 points16 points ago

Sounds like a key-job if I ever heard one.

Small edit: They'd actually have to be pretty despicable for me to consider it

[–]Boreal_girl 20 points21 points ago

Use a broom handle to insert a potato in his exhaust pipe (or anus)

[–]ObligatoryResponse 5 points6 points ago

Warming up a diesel is stupid... they're a far more efficient ignition cycle than spark-ignition engines... this means far less heat, especially at idle.

Just get in and drive. It'll heat up faster and you and your engine will be happier. Too cold? Get heated seats.

I realized you're not the douche in the giant ass-diesel truck, but... seriously...

[–]eloisekelly 4 points5 points ago

We've got a guy like that across the road. Every morning at 5:30, he'll sit in it and rev it for about half an hour, then go back inside until 6:30, then rev it again until 7, then leave.

The worst part about it is that you can feel the engine, so no amount of music will drown the sound out.

[–]Wrong_Swordfish 1 point2 points ago

This is happening to me today, and every day. What do I do? He gets out of his car and says "Wooo!" (literally) and gives his car a mental hug. He loves it so much.

[–]adrift98 12 points13 points ago

You must live in my apartment complex.

I live next to UNOH, which is a major diesel mechanics school, and all of my neighbors have giant trucks they idle at around midnight, 2 AM, and again at about 6 AM (about a half hour before I have to wake up for work). Probably accounts for the cheap rent.

[–]PureOhms 9 points10 points ago

The worst part is when you move. Then you wont be able to fall asleep except to the sound of diesel engines idling, and you'll wake up at those times not because of the sound, but because of the lack of it.

[–]BinaryRockStar 3 points4 points ago

So you buy a big diesel truck and idle it at midnight, just to get to sleep, and the cycle continues....

[–]Aavagadrro 1 point2 points ago

Try sleeping with full throttle C141 engine runs all night, or F16s/U2s taking off every few hours, then going back to live on a farm in the middle of nowhere. The house not shaking and rumbling is unnerving.

[–]PureOhms 2 points3 points ago

Yeah. I live near an air-force base and planes used to go overhead all the time. When they changed their flightpaths it was pretty unnerving to have no loud sounds overhead all day.

[–]fanboat 5 points6 points ago

Did you know a diesel engine idles at about 26 Hz, roughly the same as a cat's purr? Pretend you are sleeping on a cat, maybe? I dunno.

[–]Thefriendlyfaceplant 8 points9 points ago

At least you can throw the cat out of a window.

[–]fanboat 2 points3 points ago

Clearly the solution is to... replace diesel engines... with cats, and throw them when you want to sleep? To the patent office!

[–]DeathBuffalo 47 points48 points ago

My neighbours slam the doors at least 5 - 7 times. I'll hear these 7 slams I be like "What the fuck, they only have 4 doors...". I don't know why they do it, perhaps to make sure that the doors are fully closed.

[–]hthu 68 points69 points ago

4 doors + a hood + a trunk lid + a gas tank door

You need to slam especially those gas tank doors. At least twice, you never know.

This, but with their front door. I live in a townhouse and their door is right next to my room.So at 3 AM they fight in front of my window and take turns slamming the door.

[–]beer_madness 13 points14 points ago

I feel for you. I live in a duplex and the neighbors, at all hours of the night and day, would constantly slam the doors whether coming or going. They, their 3 kids, nor their 15+ friends per day had any concept of shutting the door like a decent person.

They just moved the fuck out 2 days ago.

It's worse with people who don't understand how a door works and insist on slamming it to make sure its latched. Turn the fucking handle, shut the door, release handle, push or pull lightly to see if its locked.

Two or three times a day my upstairs neighbor does something that sounds like dropping a single ball bearing on the kitchen floor.

Hah, they're probably lighting the stove. My girlfriend got a stove like that a couple months ago, and there were many moments of vague confusion but not enough confusion to get up and figure out what the hell was going on.

When I lived in a dorm the guys that lived upstairs would dribble a basket ball all the fucking time. I still have nightmares about it.

[–]RahvinDragand 1 point2 points ago

My upstairs neighbor used to run back and forth across his studio apartment late at night. The only logical explanation I could think of was that he was constantly attempting to catch a mouse.

[–]pmartin1[!] 1 point2 points ago

My upstairs neighbors do that, and sometimes they mix it up with a few rounds of drop the dead body, followed by dropping pots down their cast-iron, spiral stairs.

[–]omg_its_bacon 1 point2 points ago

My upstairs neighbor:

  • moves her furniture every 5 minutes.
  • slams every single door every fucking time she closes them.
  • speaks loud as fuck all the time.

[–]Dinosour 1 point2 points ago

You will see that most of the replies encourage the antagonization of your neighbors, but as a college student and certified critical thinker, wouldn't you rather use the solution that will work to your benefit?

Buy a case or two of beer, take it over and drink it with them. Then, when it's time to go to sleep, say nice goodbyes and then ask them if they could keep it down so you could sleep.

It might be a few bucks off your wallet, but you're bound to get respect instead of shit thrown into your yard.

... Just don't get me started on people who honk their horns when they drop someone off late at night - as to announce to the neighbourhood that our gracious king has returned home and we should raise our weary heads from our pillows and go greet him.

[–]ShakingSquirrels 2 points3 points ago

I know, right? In this day and age with cell phones and texting, there is absolutely ZERO need to blare your car to let someone know that you're there to pick them up. Honking after you DROP SOMEONE OFF is just douchey.

[–]KennyFukinPowers 1 point2 points ago

I'm right there with you. Last night at about 12:30 just as I'm starting to drift off: 6 car door slams and laying on the horn to announce they've dropped off their burn-out friend to his white trash castle.

[–]ModemGhost 12 points13 points ago

I wear earplugs when I sleep, and I've never understood why everyone doesn't do it. I started doing it when I worked night shifts because there was so much more noise around my house during the day. That was over 10 years ago, and I've never looked back, even though I don't sleep during the day anymore.

[–]smoochieboochies 25 points26 points ago

Ear plugs hurt my ears after a while. I just run a fan throughout the night. White noise - works.

Alarm clocks don't work so well when you can't hear them :P

[–]ModemGhost 5 points6 points ago

I use the alarm on my phone, and I can easily turn it up loud enough to hear through the earplugs. They don't completely block all sound, just the majority of it. Car doors slamming, my wife downstairs watching TV, the neighbor's dog barking - those are the kinds of things that are blocked or muffled to the point where they won't wake me. But a nice loud alarm clock next to the bed will still wake me up with no problems.

[–]broken_cogwheel 2 points3 points ago

I've tried. Maybe I should try again...

[–]captainmorgan23 6 points7 points ago

I use a box fan right next to the bed. Loud but in a soothing way, and keeps the room cool enough to always be under a blanket. But you can still hear the alarm. It's nice. Takes about 3 days to get used to (at least it did for me).

[–]FatCatFart 1 point2 points ago

Only to return maybe 30 minutes later and repeat the whole ordeal.

hmm. I wonder. the second time they would speed off again too? Wonder if the dude was picking up or dropping off someone that worked a swing shift.

Same thing at my girlfriends house, and she lives on cul-de-sac! with about 6 neighbors. I hear more car doors shut than there are doors!

[–]pmartin1[!] 2 points3 points ago

I have one fucktard neighbor that constantly hits the panic button on their keyless entry remote. It happens at least once a day at various times. I have never seen the driver. I'm assuming there's either a random button pressing party going on at their place everyday, or they're too dumb to learn which button is which on the remote. To top it all off my son is autistic and car horns is one of his triggers. So in addition to the constant beeping, we have to deal with him screaming BEEP * BEEP* BEEP at the top of his lungs.

Good times. Good times.

[–]WWGFD 2 points3 points ago

[–]fabricflayer 2 points3 points ago

[–]Swag_Surfer 4 points5 points ago

Constantly loud neighbors are such scum. Either they're too stupid and oblivious to know they're being loud OR they know they're being loud but they think the world revolves around them so no fucks are given about anyone but themselves. Either way they deserve to be punched in the dick/vagina. OP's problem sucks because it's hard to call the cops on unknown people for slamming doors. Much easier if it is loud music and you know what apartment it's coming from.

[–]ShakingSquirrels 5 points6 points ago

God, tell me about it. My downstairs neighbors always slam the door when they come and go, but I can deal with that since it's only a few times a day. However, they used to play really loud dubstep and hip hop a few times a week. Like, my glass of water vibrating on the nightstand loud. I went down there one night at 11 p.m. when they had been playing it for a couple hours and asked very nicely if they would turn it down. The girl was like "Oh yeah, sorry. I didn't realize you could hear it" and turned it down.

WTF, HOW COULD YOU NOT REALIZE IT WAS LOUD?!? YOUR BASS IS SHAKING THINGS AND YOU LIVE IN AN APARTMENT WITH SIX NEIGHBORS. SERIOUSLY.

Home sound systems have become so powerful now that either they need to regulate how powerful they can be or summary execution should be a punishment for noise complaints. There is just certain point where the music is so loud it's hostile.

I need clever tips to avenge upstairs neighbors that don't give a fuck about slamming doors and moving furniture 24 hours a day.

[–]apullin 7 points8 points ago

What is wrong with people? Honestly ... I know there are some apparent separations in society ... white/black , poor/rich , but the only real division is between slammers and non-slammers.

I had some idiot subletters living below me who would drop their toilet seat. That's right ... not put it down, like a rational person, they'd just tap it and let it fall. It was LOUD, and it happened all the time. I wrote them an email that was so quietly passive agressive that they weren't even sure if I was being so, and ended up forwarding it to the person they were subletting from. Thustly, I viciously embarassed them over that behavior.

But it doesn't always go that way. In my previous apartment, there was a guy right above me who, every time he came of went, would just SMASH his door closed. I went up there to talk to him, and to politely ask if he could just "place" his door closed, since we all lived in such close proximity. His response? "Fuck you.", slam door in face. Sigh ... why can't I just shoot people?

Inconsiderate people are the bane of my existence.

Every morning I wake to my neighbors following routine:

  • DOOR SLAM!
  • Her toddler bawling her eyes out over something "WAAA....WAA WAA WAAAAAAAA."
  • Her stomping down the stairs like she's wearing a pair of heavy steel toe boots.
  • 15 minutes pass and said neighbor returns from dropping kid off at Auschwitz or wherever.
  • STOMP STOMP STOMP STOMP up stairs
  • DOOR SLAM!!

Seriously! When I enter and leave my house, I am like a demon's whisper. It's not that difficult.

[–]apullin 3 points4 points ago

The stomping is another amazing thing to me. I am a big fat guy, but I have have the genes of a ballerina or something, because I can glide around without stomping. To try and walk around as loudly as my roommate does, I have the actively try to accelerate my foot into the ground, to such a degree that I can't do it without it looking and feeling satirical.

Before you shoot your neighbors about the toilet seat, consider this:

My current landlord considers himself a handyman, even though he isn't great at it. One example of this is that the new toilet he installed is tilted slightly forward, and the toilet seat has also been replaced by one that is too large and is loose. So, if any of the five of us living here leave the seat up, about 10 minutes later the seat comes crashing down and scares the shit (pun intended) out of everyone nearby. So, maybe you need to shoot the landlord who won't fix the seat first.

does the smiley face imply you have three mouths

[–]trackerbishop 5 points6 points ago

no it implies he is fat.

[–]OakReadErryday 4 points5 points ago

Mine would be "UCLA Weed Fest Erryday" and they'd be doing their best to hotbox my entire block from their little apartment.

This is awesome. Mine is an Apartment Door Slam Party

[–]MMangetout 1 point2 points ago

I was awoken once by a door slamming party of sorts. I lived in an old house that had been sectioned into 6 separate apartments: two in the basement, two on the main floor and two on the second story. I lived in one of the main floor apartments. The BF of the couple who lived in the other main floor apartment apparently hooked up with the GF of one of the second story couple/tenants. One evening I woke up to the sound of doors being slammed one after another. Turns out the scorned GF of the main floor apartment had a few drinks with her pal in one of the basement apartments. They figured the best revenge would be to have a door slamming party in the two suites in the middle of the night. I guess it didn't occur to them that there were other tenants in the building who had no connection to the tryst. I eventually yelled at them to stop, and got the low down and a sheepish apology the following morning.

Laughed out loud at this artwork

[–]ThePomelo 1 point2 points ago

don't just smash it, smang it!

[–]Devanismyname 1 point2 points ago

Or the classic room mate opening and closing his bed room door 300 times a night. That one is awsome.

[–]DribDrubs 1 point2 points ago

Also who can have the loudest cell phone conversation right outside my room contests.

[–]ZachDawg832 1 point2 points ago

You know what annoys me to no end? People who slam car doors at 3 PM. Some of us work nights and nobody gives the smallest amount of consideration and tries to be quiet during the day.

[–]skynet907 1 point2 points ago

I hate people that feel the need to make their cars chirp multiple times. We are all impressed.

[–]ser_dhusti 1 point2 points ago

My friend and I used to snipe cars with his BB gun when they partied next door. Good times.

[–]druek 1 point2 points ago

My neighbor plays "Drop 500 Beer Bottles In the Trash Can" just about every night around "The Second I Fall Asleep".

[–]SuperSpaulding 1 point2 points ago

Don't slam the fucking door http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_HOLr0jqnCI

[–]Dudeiszack 1 point2 points ago

Now before getting out test out your stereo and turn up the bass!!!

[–]O_WHOA 1 point2 points ago

as the 3 am guy who slams his door, fuck you. Do you know how tired I am and how extremely quiet it is at night

Last thing in my mind, "Oh no, the neighbors; better tip toe to my room"

I am tired. Tired that you will never experience in your life, from a job that the devil conjured up while you sleep in dreamland

[–]TheMaskedHamster 1 point2 points ago

This is why I don't like living near people.

I'm currently renting a room in a closely packed area, but it's to save money so I never have to endure this again.

[–]slyf 1 point2 points ago

Now rev your engine while you drive off, and honk at all your friends

[–]peachnixon 1 point2 points ago

I live opposite a 24 hour petrol station. So. This. A fuck tonne of a lot. Also very late night stoners shouting about how great Doritos and Mars bars are.

[–]t1ck_t0ck 1 point2 points ago

This reminds me of my neighbor. I swear to god he is out valet parking his own cars all morning. I haven't seen it since it's too damn early but from the sounds of it; he's out backing his THREE fucking cars out of his drive way and parking them out on the street and then driving them all back into his driveway.

[–]Islandre 1 point2 points ago

I have recently realised that I hate my neighbour more than I've ever hated anyone or anything. She, and everything she believes, including all the accepted stuff like the existence of the earth and the liklihood of tomorrow, is worse than useless bollocks, it's self-centered counterproductive bullshit that just makes everyone's life worse. My point, you ask?

It is two hours until 3 am where I live and I am still sober so can go get my car and park it outside and have a fucking righteous car door slamming party. Fuck my neighbour. I will still be seething more than I've ever seethed before in two hours. I might even go for a run first. Fuck.

[–]wanderer11 1 point2 points ago

My neighbors used to run their cars for about 20 minutes in the morning to let them warm up...with the headlights on high pointed into my living room. Try sleeping on the couch through that.

You guys should hang out in /r/comics and see all these ahead of time.

[–]brofisto 1 point2 points ago

Makes me think of this!

[–]betonthis1 1 point2 points ago

I'm not sure this would be all that common since this is only happened after moving to this quiet neighborhood. My neighbors work in construction so they drive their work trucks home. Every morning I wake up to the sound of them backing up their trucks out to leave with the "beep beep beep" sound. It sounds like they take 30 minutes to do this. Add to the fact that they're 3 trucks that do this every morning. All they got to do is back in when they come home but I'm sure that takes too much effort.
