Today, I couldn't see my car in a crowded car park. I pressed unlock on my keys and saw the lights flash. As I walked over I also saw someone run from my car with an armful of my stuff. FML

Today, my keys disappeared out of my car door during the 50 foot walk to the trash can. When I finally went to security after trying to find them, they said someone drove off with my car right as I walked in the door. FML
Today, I was playfully walking back to my car with my girlfriend. My door was unlocked. I then noticed my car had stuff scattered inside. A bum had just robbed and ransacked my car. FML
Today, I lost my keys while at the supermarket. I franticly back-tracked through the store, asking everyone I saw along the way. They eventually showed up, right where I left them... in my unattended car, the engine still running. There was an announcement made over the PA system. FML
Today, I accidentally left the handbrake off in my car, got out, locked it, and started walking away. Then I heard a loud noise and looked over my shoulder and the car was gone. Of course, it hit the only other car parked in the street. FML
Today, I was walking to my car when I saw a large man walking behind me. I hurried to open my car as he was approaching quickly, but the door wasn't unlocking and I panicked. I then realized that it wasn't even my car. As I walked away from it, he walked up and unlocked the door. FML
Today, I parked my car to go inside to grab my wallet than I'd forgotten. In the short time it took me to do that, someone broke two of my car's windows. FML
Today, I was leaving the mall. I Instinctively hit the unlock button on my car keys from across the parking lot. Little did I know I was making it a whole lot easier for the guy breaking into my car. FML
Today, I locked my car. I put the key in my bag when suddenly my car began to roll backwards. I tried to get the key out of my bag but couldn't find it, and with the other hand I tried to stop the car. The worst thing was that some dumbass was watching me and didn't help. FML
Today, after a long workout I come back to my locker, to find my lock had been cut. I looked inside realizing my phone and iPod had been stolen. If that wasn't bad enough, my keys were gone. I ran out to the parking lot to find an empty spot where my car had once been parked. FML
Today, I locked my keys in the car while the car was running because I got out to get the parking ticket attached to my windshield. FML

Why wouldn't you press the lock key?

Tough luck OP. Hope you can replace your stuff!

Pay attention to where you park it next time. Use landmarks, count the aisles, whatever you have to do. Or hit the panic button and scream "My car, my car! Wherefore art thou my car?!"

That's why you hit the LOCK key, not the UNLOCK key.

When I'm looking for my car I always hit the alarm button, never the unlock. Unless I'm right near it ready to get in. Hopefully it wasn't too important OP

YDI for unlocking instead of locking.

I always press lock, so my truck honks too.

How could someone be that prepared? Waiting for a car to magically unlock & run w/ the stuff

Don't unlock it. Use the lock button or the alarm

This is why most people press the lick button. Car stays locked, lights could still flash and in most cases you get a nice little honk or beep too

there is a reason the lock button makes it honk and the unlock button doesn't. drivers ed 101
