It was really fun in the parking lot, when I would hit the button and eighteen cars around me would lock, unlock, open the trunk (that took a bit to reset) and set the car alarm off. It was still great fun at 02:00.
How many people walking through the lot thought the cars were coming for them? :twisted:

I'm in a motorcycle club that runs a trail ride event. Someone turned in a key fob so I grabbed the golf cart and started driving around looking for which car it lit up. I was quite aways away from the truck that it belonged to, and when I hit it all the people at the campsite froze, looking at the ground. They had apparently been looking for the keys already. I had great fun pushing the button and watching them all run around trying to figure out who was stepping on the remote.

There's a special place in hell for people like me. :twisted:

Now that's funny. How long did you play with them before you gave the key back?

I have to admit it went on longer than it should have. I pulled up and gave them their keys back, and they were very happy to have them. Then I got the hell out of there before they had a chance to reflect on how long I had been effing with them. Probably two or three minutes total. God I wish I had a video.

...while 12 other people also do the same thing...

Better bet is to keep pressing the lock button. Most cars give a little chirp of a honk and blink the parking lights to confirm that it's locked.
Plus, it's not as annoying at the end of the night as the sound of 15 alarms going off because people didn't write down their row number.

Speaking of setting off alarms...for some odd reason, I used to have random people. Not customers--not employees, RANDOM people that would walk by our RadioShack at the mall and would for no reason at all...lean on cars and strike up a conversation. I mean, I understand if it was your car...but someone else's car?

Good thing my key fob has a good range. Good thing the alarm horn is loud too. :twisted: Needless to say people stopped leaning on my car.

There was one snowy day when I was a kid, that my dad had to go into a store that was located on a back road. He left me sitting in the back seat for the five minutes he was in there. The car was a GMC Yukon that he received as his company car, and of course it was an expensive car, which is the only reason I can think of that the following happened. This guy came up and didn't know I was in the car, and started peeing on the back tire. So I grabbed my camera, waited until the flow was enough that it would be difficult to stop quickly, opened the door and took a picture of him there with his cold manhood on display. Needless to say, he was surprised and his pants fell a bit. He started running. I got out and chased him a little bit, right up to a very busy road. I am fairly sure I got him there before he had a chance to zip up.

Best part? I knew there was no film in the camera... yes, back when cameras took film. Of course, the best ones still do!
