You know it's cold when: You use your nipples to point toward objects.

I took my car to Honda to make use of their hot water pressure washer and heated indoor garage. (Friend works there, off hours)

When I got home, both doors were frozen shut. I had to hit the drivers door too many times to get it open...




I'm sure this question could be answered in one post so i'll ask it here I guess...

Armor All in the wheel wells. I spray it all over my wheel wells and just leave it to spread/drip itself. Why do I do it... I have no idea? I heard people doing it... Does anyone know why I do it!?

Yep,
you hate snowbunnys , therefore you spray AA in your wheel-well

I buy acidfree vaseline to put on door seals , never had a stuck (frozen) door in my life.(It's a bit greasy but it works)

Let's see, right knob three turns, left knob four turns, valve number seven turned to position two, switch number three flipped on, valve four clicked to eight o'clock, wait three seconds.....whoops...."Oh no, Cap'n, she's gonna blow, abandon ship!
