When conducting our daily edition of “Smartest Person in the QC,” we’ve heard patterns developed. For example, just about every question we ask, apparently, can be answered (incorrectly) with “toilet paper,” or “bottle of water.” Also, any question we ask about knowledge the younger generations doesn’t have is ALWAYS answered (incorrectly) with “balancing a checkbook” or “drive a stick shift.” Ah, the stick shift. Technically, a standard transmission. For all intents and purposes today? A “Millennial Anti-Theft Device.”
Seriously, if want to save money on car alarms and hidden cameras, just order your next vehicle with a stick. Our son is twenty one. He couldn’t get a straight drive out of the garage if his life depended on it. Apparently, these idiots featured in the video below are in his same class. According to the video, Detectives from the Montgomery County Department of Police-Major Crimes Division have arrested and charged a 16-year-old juvenile from Rockville and a 17 year-old juvenile from Washington D.C. for a strong-arm carjacking.”
Oh, they had the “strong-arm” thing down to a science. It’s the next part, the actual “carjacking” that is SEVERELY lacking. This vehicle was equipped with a standard transmission therefore, success was not an option. Check it out below. It’s never not going to be funny. I’ve got to imagine that as soon as the vehicle’s owner got over his initial traumatic adrenaline rush, he HAD to start laughing out loud, right? I wish I could hear the 911 call where he’s laughing while telling the cops someone tried to steal his car.
