I'm a Jackwad.

I was just driving home, patted my pocket and panicked about my keys for a second.....until I looked down at the ignition.

No, I am sober. I laughed and made my way home.

You're a jackwad too, right? Any stories?

Nods*...all the time...
Freak out always when getting out of car at grocery store, to check to see if I'm wearing my shorts.4real

Have also done this with phone...while using it.

<-------gone back to pay for gum (in hand) after buying groceries

Ok...this really made me want to quit going out in public..went to thrift store this past Friday..handed my items up one by one...paid...put change in purse..starting pushing empty cart away...till she called out to me.
Was so claimed I was putting buggy up..went grabbed bags and left.
Yea...Honestly my struggle is real.

Now I've never been quite that bad, but not long ago I was running late for work, as soon as I locked the front door, I knew my keys were on the hook in kitchen. I call myself a dipsh%t instead. Had to get the manager to break in for me.
I also have managed to fall up the stairs a few times but getting better.

Pizza guy is a jackwad...poor guy locked his keys and phone in his running car...lol...how many of us remember phone numbers...sad day for him

I so feel for the dude....that's a tough night.

...yeah...I let him use my phone...he called his work and his work tracked down his roommate ...his roommate brought him his spare keys...still took the better part of an hour...my nephew kept the guy company while he waited on the porch...

VERY NICE!

Wake up thinking I was running late for work on my first day of vacation (holaday) ...

Several years ago I was on my way home from work during a snowstorm when I came across a small car in the ditch. I got out and made sure they were okay, then a few minutes later young lad with a 4X4 pickup stopped and offered to help pull her out. It took the two of us about 20min to get her back on the road and to check over the car to make sure it was okay to drive, the whole time with icy snow blasting away at us. Waved goodbye, everyone rolled away and I went back to get into my Jeep, only to find out the doors were locked. I must have accidentally hit the power door lock button on the way out.



So now I'm standing there in a full on blizzard, looking in at my dog who was sitting all warm and comfy in the passenger seat. There was no more traffic on the road, so I called the wife (now ex-wife) and asked her to bring my spare key. Then I occupied myself by trying to teach the dog a new trick; how to open the car door from the inside. It didn't go well. It took the ex an hour to show up because the roads were so bad (normally was a 20min drive) and I was almost hypothermic by the time she got there. I sat there for about 10min with the heater on full before I had stopped shaking enough so that I could drive home.

And ever since then, every single time I get out of the Jeep, I make sure the key is in my pocket first and take great care not to lock the door until I am standing outside and have verified that the key is in my pocket.

Is a jackwad an idiot?
My car has a FOB, as opposed to 'keys'.. when leaving my car I put the fob in my jacket pocket. At the place I was at, I put my jacket on a chair.. later I sat on that chair, but the pocket with the fob was placed such that I must have hit the fob with my butt or something.. next thing I hear is my car horn blasting off... and me thinking 'what idiot is that?'.. lots of people in the place probably thinking the same thing... took me just a couple minutes to realize it was me! my bad.
