Charles Darwin Has Nothing On Me!

Sometimes I think that natural selection hasn't gotten to me because I have technology on my side. Specifically I'm grateful for: smoke detectors in the kitchen, cars that can only be locked with a key from the outside, and the auto-shutoff feature on my clothes iron

    very funny site!

    one note...there is a bunch of weird blank space that sort of makes the site difficult to read. Also, a way to read a bunch of your hilarious remarks in a row would be nice.

    Good luck!

    Pro Tip: Most cars that can only be locked with a key from the outside can in fact be locked without a key if you lock it from the inside, then shut the door from the outside with the handle up.

    Hope this doesn't get you locked out!

    Anonymous: if you look at the archive at the bottom, you should be able to get a whole bunch of posts at once.

    Noexit: I have a Honda Civic. I've tried that little trick with the door handle. It totally works. So I insist on using the key. For safety's sake.
