I remember when my friends and I, 15 years old or so, moved a fiat 500 (old model) from its parking lot to the middle of the road at night. The next week there was this notice on the condo's board saying "we kindly remind everybody to put handbrake on their cars when parking" Truly beautiful moment from childhood

At college one of our friends had a Fiat 500 Autobianchi van which was parked nicely in the Students' Union car park. We manhandled it from the parking bay to between two concrete pillars, with about an inch clearance front and rear.

0:37 I do that same thing, pretty much. I live in a very tourist-y city, and the city rents out these little three-wheeled, two-seater, open-top car/buggy things for the tourists to zip around in and go sightseeing. They're super small, so if you find a parked one, you can pick it up and turn it around.

Our old bike sheds in highschool was next to one of those corrugated containers. The ones you see on boats but not as big. Eventually, our mate Josh trusted us enough with the combination to his bike lock, so we could unlock it for him whilst we waited and we could all bike home together when he got out of class (as 9/10, we'd get there first). Then one day, I had the bright idea of unlocking his bike and putting it on top of the container. His reaction was the funniest shit for weeks.

Unless the cable is unpowered, won't work.

When ever someone asks me “why do you watch top gear?” Or “why do you enjoy Jeremy clarkson?” I always show/send them this clip, it demonstrates the whole show at once

At my old job I had a coworker with a plug-in hybrid and he would always plug it in inside the parking garage. The problem is the garage didn't have any actual EV chargers so he would park in a spot that *didn't even belong to our company*, run an extension cord *down the stairs*, and would trickle charge it off of a regular 120 volt outlet. Essentially he was stealing the electricity and the building owner was footing the bill. I gladly unplugged that car every chance I got. Since it was a hybrid, I knew he wouldn't be stranded if it didn't recharge. The building owner finally confronted him for parking in a reserved spot, creating a tripping hazard with the extension cord, and stealing electricity. It never ceases to amaze me how "above the law" most EV drivers think they are.

This is one of the funniest clips from the news.
