So many people with no sense of humor, but ready to be rude to those of us that do. If you don't like the joke, what bother to post a putdown?

I leave a trail of bread crumbs.

That's me! The guy wandering the parking lot looking for bread crumbs.

I came out of the dollar tree and opened the door to the car. Boy was I surprised, there was a man in the drivers seat talking on his cell phone. I was startled and jumped back. Then I realized my car was 2 cars over from his. I'll never forget that day.

you probably parked illegally and your cart was moved to hopefully get you to park properly.

On the other hand, there is a valid argument that people truly born and raised in California do not refer to their state as "Cali." That became popular in 1988 with the rap song from LL Cool J (You might know him from NCIS- Los Angeles) and the soundtrack from the movie "Less Than Zero." Of course LL Cool J (real name James Smith) is from New York. Bonus if you know what LL Cool J means.

One time while working swing shift I went out for lunch and parked in different spot. When I got off work the fog had set in (and I mean Heavy fog) from 10 feet you couldn’t see nothing except it you bend down within foot or two from ground. I forget which lane I parked in and had to go down isles bending down looking at bumpers and licenses plates. The drive home wasn’t fun either could not see one white line ahead of me. I also see few often roaming isles looking for where they parked down here. We may all get there one day?

Default Finding your car

There's an app for that. Just google "find my car" in your app store, depending on whether you use Android or iPhone. It's a good price: free! You set it when you leave your car in the paring space, and when ready to find it again, press the "find my car" icon and it will guide you there!

I keep those scoundrels from moving my car by taking one of the tires with me! To have real fun, roll it through the parking lot seeing how far it rolls each time. Added bonus if it dents a few cars along the way those cars become a bread trail back to your car.

I finally looked around and was able to identify my car. It was the one a row over with the lift gate up. There are just too many white SUVs around here.
This is how the loofahs that people have on their car came about !! Weatherproof and easy .
But of course someone made it into a swingers club !!

Default Loofa Solution

I thought loofas were designed to address this issue? I’m not sure why, but black and teal seem to work best.
