Get out of the car!
(This is supposedly a true account recorded in the Police Log of Sarasota, Florida.)
An elderly Florida lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her car, found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle.
She dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her lungs, "I have a gun and I know how to use it! Get out of the car!"
The four men didn't wait for a second threat. They got out and ran like mad.
The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her shoping bags into the back of the car and got into the driver's seat. She was so shaken that she could not get her key into the ignition.
She tried and tried, and then she realized why. It was for the same reason she had wondered why there was a football, a frisbee, and two 12-packs of beer in the front seat.
Afew minutes later, she found her own car parked for or five spaces farther down.
She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the police station to report her mistake.
The sargeant to whom she told the story couldn't stop laughing.
He pointed to the other end of the counter, whe four pale men where reporting a car jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun.
No charges were filed. Moral of the story?
If you're going to have a senior moment... Make it memorable.

Like Mr. Mencia said: If you are not laughing, you are not living.

Similar story.........A friend of mine is an FBI agent. He took his Jeep to Sears for routine service. He returned with his girl friend driving, to pick up his vehicle. As they pulled into the lot, he saw someone driving out.... in his jeep. He had his girl friend chase down the jeep, and he came out with gun drawn.......wrong jeep.........

In 1988, I was driving a 1979 Pontiac Grand Le Mans Safari series wagon, light blue with wood trim. It was a pretty unique car, to say the least. One day, I came out of K-Mart and opened my car door thinking how unusual it was that it was unlocked. It wasn't like me to forget to lock the door. (Missed clue #1)
I put the key in the ignition and it wouldn't turn. I tried with all my might, but it would not budge. (Missed clue #2) Then I noticed that someone apparently had stolen my aftermarket stereo and replaced it with the stock radio. Okay, I didn't actually think that, but, believe it or not, that was (Missed clue #3). Even that didn't make the light bulb go off (but at least the idea was starting to sprout).
It wasn't until I glanced in the rearview and noticed a spoiler where none had been before that--ever so slowly--I began to realize, Oh my god...THIS ISN'T MY CAR!
I wasn't a very bright kid, but I'm smarter now.
Sorry, no guns involved in this story.

One day, at the airport where I work, I quickly jumped into my 2000 Honda Civic, silver, and sat down. I took a quick scan around the extremely cluttered and messy interior of the car and said to myself, "Cookie, it's time you clean out all of this crap that you have accumulated in here." Then I realized, I did not recognize any of the "crap"! I looked out the left window to see another 2000 honda Civic, Silver. The car I got into belonged to the FAA Inspector who was there giving a flight test! I went up to him and told him my story and apologised. He admitted that last week, when he was at the airport, he jumped into my car!

This story of a mistaken car beats all that have been told here so far...and it IS real. Also, it's gross. You've been warned.
