Am I wrong for laughing at this?

Okay quite possibly the funniest thing I've ever seen, here goes. I couldn't make up a story this good.

I was in the automatic touchless carwash with the wife's Neon Saturday. These two elderly folks pull up into the carwash in front of me in a light blue '95 ish Lincoln Town Car. I noticed the trunk was popped, but I didn't want to walk up there and close it. Besides I thought for sure the water pressure would close it. Well it didn't, that thing got to the bumper and the trunk went flying open. That was bad enough, but then the tall skinny dude (maybe 65 yr. old?) decides to jump out, leave the door opened, and close the trunk. He got drenched. Then he ran back to try and beat the carwash to the opened door, and busted his **** on the ground! The carwash goes up from the back and starts pushing on his door! soaking his wife, who couldn't get out. I guess some kind of safety finally shut the carwash off, and the old dude shimmied in and drove the car out. I ran up there to make sure they were okay, and they were, just shaken up. Poor lady was about to cry. The whole inside of the front of the car was soaked. The trunk was full of Walmart bags with old people stuff in them (rags, yarn, whatever.) Everything was soaked.

Everybody I tell this story to just doesn't understand my laughter. I felt bad for the old fart.

You are just happy to see someone pull a stunt as dumb as one of yours?

3valve....do you know how many multi-millionaires retire to the northeast part of Arkansas.....I know of at least a couple dozen in the Mtn. Home area.....

....with that said......just think of what may have been offered to you if you would have gotten off your a$s and closed their trunk for them.......

...keep that in mind next time your "first instinct" says something to you......


....the story is funny though

In preparation for the "big day" I suggest you start driving 47 mph in the passing lane!

Coming to work this morning, I was driving 80 in the passing lane and a girl in a little Honda whipped around me on the right. I will try the 47 on the way home.
