I've got a very common SUV in a very common color (white). I've walked up to the car and been mystified that the door wouldn't open. You can guess the rest....
[Yanked on familiar door handle.]
I did that too once. Good thing no one noticed.
Just the other day I was going to take a shopping cart for a lady to help her on her way. [I exercize in the parking lots a lot rather than sit around inside the car.]
I saw something shiny in the cart and assumed it was sequins on her purse.
would not recommend taking a cart with a purse in it. So I waited until she removed it. Then you know what I said?
“I can take your purse for you.”
She gaped at me.
Fortunately, she had seen me help others with their carts and laughed it off.
