I have a friend named Ed. He owns this "ferrari". One fine day, a friend accidentally got his coat caught in between the door when he got out of the car. So Ed, who is a 3rd year medic (which means he has to be at least a little bit smart), yanks the door open, and in the process damages the latch on the door, rendering it unable to close. So Ed (being the smart guy he is) decides to examine the other side of the door, in an attempt to repair the damaged one. However, instead of fixing it, he messes up the other side as well. So both sides couldn't close properly. (Look carefully at the picture, and you'll notice that the front door isn't closed)
So last saturday morning, i got woken up at 11 in the morning with a request to help him hold the doors shut while he drove to the garage to repair the unclosable doors.
So off we went. I sat shotgun and held the door on my side shut with my left hand, and held on to a golf club wedged on the other door's handle to keep that other door shut with my right. Mind you, the doors are heavy! He had to slow down at every single corner as the doors would swing open! Can you imagine how stupid we looked. Onlookers just stared... probably in disbelief. It was the stupidest thing i've done so far in university.
To make things even more dumb, the mechanic took 5 seconds to fix both doors, and then looked at us, smiled, and said," no charge!"
Sigh... tis the exciting life of a freshman!
