Today, I thought it would be romantic to take my girlfriend to the beach. It was raining so we left our shoes and phones in the car so we wouldn't be bothered. Apparently, I left my keys in the car too. The car was locked. FML

Today, after walking on the beach for an hour with a friend, I noticed I'd lost my car keys. Thirty minutes from my friend's house, three hours from mine. It was getting dark & the tide was rising. We retraced our steps with no luck; the keys could’ve been washed away. I'd also locked my keys in the car earlier this week an hour from home. FML
Today, my girlfriend left for basic training. I went to say goodbye to her at the airport. Only after I walked back to my car did I realize that she still had the keys. My extra set was back at the house, locked in. FML

Today, while driving, I realized I had left my phone on top of my car when I was getting in. Panicking, I drove back to look for it. I found it in the middle of the street, still intact. Yay! When I went back to my car, I noticed I had locked my door, and the keys were in the ignition. FML
Today, I was driving back from school 100 miles away from my home with my fiancé and dog. While stopping for gas, we accidentally left our car keys and cell phones in the car. The dog sat on one of the keys and engaged the locks. We were locked out of the car until the tow truck arrived. FML
Today, I went to the beach with a friend. We'd forgotten to get our towels out of the SUV, so I rushed back to the parking lot. I opened the passenger-side door and climbed in to begin my search. After ten seconds or so, I realized I'd busted into someone else's car. FML

Let this be a lesson to you. Don't try to be romantic, the girl doesn't expect it anyways and things like this always happen when you try to be romantic.

What kind of car lets you lock it from the inside before the doors are closed? What fantastically stupid engineering.

Almost all cars.....

Not any I've driven. I stand by the fact that's it's incredibly lazy/stupid engineering. It makes no sense to manufacter a car that is prone to such a common yet serious problem when the solution is so simple.

It's done for convenience. It's easier to hit a button, when you're in the car, than to stick the key into the lock once you're out of it. Most people don't regularly lock their keys in the car, but most people do lock their cars. I don't think I've ever seen a car that doesn't lock while the doors are open, and stay locked when they are shut.

My car won't let me lock it without the key either. If i try to lock it with a front door open it just doesn't even close. Must be those american cars then.

That could definitely be the case. Hadn't thought of that before, but yeah. American's are lazy (by stereotype at least, if not in reality) and so cars manufactured for Americans are pretty likely to have the 'lazy mans features.'

"we left our shoes and phones in the car so we wouldn't be bothered" How would taking your shoes with you cause you to be bothered?

cause then you would have to take them off to get your feet wet (assuming the water isn't too cold to do so).. and then you have to keep track of them.. maybe they went and got their feet wet in the water and walked down the beach a little.. then they set their shoes down and started making out or whatnot, then the tide comes up and takes their shoes... or they hurry off to get home to get down, and they leave their shoes... it seems easier to just leave your shoes behind...i would....
