The local Clown’s Union will be pissed. Somebody stop me!


No way.

Unlike those poor cars you seem to be on a roll.

Hubby did the same thing back in the day with Bugs,,would get friends and move it across the street, or turn it around 180 degrees....only did it a couple times.

They were total brats,,but didn’t break anything or hurt anyone.

Are they sure it wasn’t a gust of wind?

My cousin’s husband on Long Island, NY calls them “stupid cars.”

I call them “Get in to an accident and you get to meet Jesus” cars.

I know this is wrong, but I can’t stop myself from laughing.

Back when I was in high school our drivers ed teacher (remember when that was a class given at school?) drove a tiny Fiat spyder, he was also the JV football coach and at least twice a month a group would pick up his little car and put it up against the classroom door sideways. There was no phone and just a little window above the door. Always good for a laugh.

When the VW Bug was very popular in the 1950-60’s we would move the front ends up on curbs or whatever was handy.

We parallel parked our Ag teacher's VW Bug between two busses on a regular basis. Some football players carried one to the second floor and parked it in front of the school office.

If 4 SUVs had been flipped, it wouldn’t have made the news.

“How do they know it was vandals?? A mosquito might’ve landed on the windshield, farted, and blown the thing over...”

From the comments section. LOL

Is this really “vandalism” or is it more of a prank?

I heard a story from a friend once (it was like 3rd hand, so I’m not sure it is true) - two people were driving over the Verrazano Bridge in a VW bug and the car was blown over by the wind. They just got out and righted it and went on their merry way.

Watch it, you may hear, "You outta know, you'uz ere !" in spite of being no where near SF.

Yeah, sounds like a new twist on Mater's pass time in the movie, "Cars". I guess they'll have to edit those scenes out of the movie since I don't see how they could be modified the way Spielberg edited the guns out of "E.T." and replaced them with hand held radios.

Another case of people imitating the evil behavior they saw in a movie. Why can't movies stick to murder, rape, and senseless violence, like they're supposed to? No one ever imitates those things.

“The Citroen 2CV...”

Man, there was sure a lot of ugly in that car. Sort of looked like a motorized tool shed.

Ugly but fun. Wish I had had the chance to own one, but no joy. The ugly:

But I did get to ride in one when I was a middle schooler- the seats were lightweight pipe affairs with fabric stretched across and the roof was all sunroof. Very cool.

And check this out- 2CV racing! Could it get any better??

Where I am now, I enjoy it all the way to work (62 miles one way) every day.

128 miles one way commute daily for me for the last 24 years.

79 more commutes to go.
