Flexible seating

Transcript

fluffy gets to its car, and sees that it is impossible to open the driver's side door due to another car parked remarkably close to it. So fluffy considers the possibilities. 3 inches is not sufficient space for it to squeeze between the two cars, but it gets a brilliant idea! Its car, a Toyota Matrix, is a wagon with very flexible seating.
fluffy opens the hatchback and climbs in, then puts the rear seats down. Smiling, it also flips down the front passenger seat, as it folds down into a convenient table. It climbs over this table, then reaches down to pull the driver seat's release lever, sliding it back, and then it navigates over the center console, and sits in the driver seat, ready to roll. fluffy feels very smart.
Starting the car, fluffy suddenly has a thought, and smacks its forehead - it could have just gone in through the passenger side. [[except in reality the passenger side was also blocked by another inconsiderate parker, but fluffy doesn't allow the truth to get in the way of a good joke.]]

I'd really like to do this as an ad for the Matrix, for what it's worth. Even though it'd totally fit with VW's advertising style.

Heh... I knew you wouldn't seriously make that mistake. Razz

I love the comic, though. The Ph.D. Fluffy is just adorable. Smile

I once did something as stupid while getting a Christmas tree. We took my crappy old car and I tied the tree to my roof. I was all proud of my tying job. Then I tried to open the driver's side door.

Just as in that old VW commercial, the door was tied shut. The really dumb part was that that commercial was running at the time.

We ended up crawling in the windows and driving off.

Very cool =)

Maybe it's time to start a Flickr page for sucky Amazon parking jobs, like this one for Yahoo?

Heh, we actually have an internal one, though it hasn't been updated in a while (I think the guy who updated it left a couple years ago).
