out a note saying "love you neighbor, hope this helps"
rodrigosanchez
Fuck yea, I love Uber.
GoodbyeCassini
Hey at least you made some other guy’s morning less shitty.
Ivanaski
I live in Arizona. I only get burned to death so that's nice

hamfrozensolid
I don't know a single person who doesn't keep their scraper in their car. So this would never happen.
e2360
It aggravates me that some people consider this to be enough to constitute a bad morning.
e2360
Unfortunatlet my opinion is worth less the electricity required for me to post this
TophatSurprise
Then you must be stronger of a person? Take solace in that and don't let weaker people bother you.
e2360
Hmmm, idk if it makes me a stronger person but you do give some very good advice

all these commenters must be really fun at parities. this is meant to be funny! smhhh
Andalite
I'd just call put at that point. Only way for the day to get better is to just go back to sleep
railgap
I love my garage. Rarely forget where I park at work.

Well... back to bed then.

I have a neat trick. Just take a bucket of hot watter and pour it over your window
DadddyWarlord
Thank God I live in California where it's constantly 200 degrees..

"Hello, work? My car is frozen in ice and I have no method of coming in today. I'll either work from home or just not be there. Bye." click.
kevinbaken
Canadian here. This happens more than you think.
sponksponksponk
Australian here. What's that white stuff
kevinbaken
Cocaine. It's why Canadians are always so nice.
The1stBellicose
Canadian here. No it doesn't.
kevinbaken
Traitor!
ILovedUnicornsFirst
I was just shocked to find a disagreeable Canadian.
kevinbaken
Most of us have auto car starters now. I was being funny but it used to happen!
ILovedUnicornsFirst
I've tried to unlock a car in a parking lot in the middle of summer in southern USA. I could definitely see snow complicating things.
Sluttypineapple
I live in Finland. So glad that I do have a garage now, it is not cheap, but totally worth it. Never this again in the morning.
OhMyYoureSexxy
His neighbor will appreciate it though
adjacentengels
Looks like he has a new car.

Start car first , then defrost.
ImmortalEskimo
Here in Michigan we clear off just enough snow to get to the driver door. Start it up, wait inside and then clear off snow and ice easier.
Ishalldefenestrateyou
How much time do you have with your day? Clear the driver door, start the car. Then immediately clear the car while it warms up.
ImmortalEskimo
I wake up early enough that I can let it warm up for a few minutes while I stay toasty inside. But then my work commute is only 10 minutes.
giddyupmusic
I would feel good that I ended up doing this for someone else...
ILovedUnicornsFirst
After I said lots of bad words, I would too.
chrisat928
Why wouldn't you do that first?
tehranosaurusrex
Because it's a commercial
reverendbonobo
Because this isn't real and was made up for a commercial.
vrflyer
My thoughts exactly....
MegaMetal
I would add that if you live in an area like that you probably have a proper scraper IN the car thus would open car first
ProfaneSanction
Good call
nafun
Because if he did it first, the gif wouldn't be funny. It's like asking why Jack didn't get on the door with rose.
MissMissingno
Because morning?
LocalZoophile
It's probably 7pm and he actually just set his alarm to PM instead of AM, too
Heatseeker49
Always start your car as soon as possible. And grab your scraper out too
PopeyeTheSailor
bit of water and rubbing alcohol in a spray bottle does wonders for ice
gandraw
Starting the car early is illegal in most of Europe.
CaptainBenjaminFranklinHawkeyePierce
I mean it's illegal in Ohio too but it's done constantly, also would it matter that it's running while you're scraping off the windows?
gandraw
It's unnecessary fuel use -> global warming.
LocalZoophile
Pre-heating your car is unnecessary, even if it's frozen?
gandraw
If it started, then the engine obviously didn't need preheating as you'd have to do with an external heater in -40° conditions.
GenjyPlayer
Lol. No it ain't cut that shit out lol.
MrE158
It's often due to leaving a car running with no-one in control, rather than anything to do with emissions/pollution.
gandraw
"Außerdem ist es Ihnen laut StVO verboten, den Motor im Stand laufen zu lassen. (...) droht Ihnen eine Geldbuße von zehn bis 200 Euro."
phobos535
Naja, "unnötig" ist in diesem Absatz das Zauberwort. Eiskratzen dient dem Herstellen der Verkehrssicherheit, da wird keiner was sagen
gandraw
It's more about the people that let the motor run for 15 minutes so they don't have a cold butt.
MemefoWars
That don't look like "most of Europe" to me
stupidhorseface
Macht trotzdem jeder...
Noonewantstoseemenakedanymore
You get fined for that unnecessary polluting in Germany.
pookieeatworld
How is it unnecessary? Warming the car up helps get it defrosted sooner...
RavenCarKey
In some of the... less civilized portions of the country, it is not customary to carry a scraper in the vehicle.
RenaissanceFaireMan
Where DID he get the scraper from?!
TheManWithTheVan
I guess I’m the bastard who drives without clearing anything
Punificent1
I pulled a few of those myself. Meh, the wind will clear it.
TheManWithTheVan
That’s what I’m talking about! What’s the safety of my fellow motorists vs me getting to work on time?
Punificent1
That's what defrost is for and gambling on rolling the windows down just enough to clear. Then trying to use windshield wiper fluid lol
Punificent1
This post really makes me sound incredibly lazy.. I just like to think I'm working smart not harder
TheManWithTheVan
I am lazy. And I perpetually sleep in.
metalheadmafia
Calling sick. Fuck that shit.
mikeyMN
I can't call in sick 8 months out of the year.
ILovedUnicornsFirst
What do you do?
ILovedUnicornsFirst
Nevermind. I read that differently than you intended.
UhhhhhNick
I love my remote start, but it doesnt clear the foot of snow off the top
SmokingGandalf
I think most people would start the car first to at least get it warmed up while fucking around with the windows
PunkySpunky
Not all cars start the engine with a keyfob
cazzegiare
We would clear just enough to get the driver side door open start the car. When the windshield is iced, a heated car makes a big difference.
Enternety
Not if the doors are frozen shut!
terranaught
Yep, stupid auto drop windows on my 235i meant I couldn’t open the door twice this winter >:(
TheDivineUsersub
You'd actually be surprised how many cars have remote control ignitions. I'm in small town Alaska, most of the people here use them.
TheDivineUsersub
That way they get their rides toasty before opening them. Also melts the ice off the wind shield to avoid going Fred Flintstone on car.
SaucyDisses
Well when life gives you lemons, fuck the lemons and bail.
celestedrake
And get the ice scraper out of the car
citrus7652
That's illegal in my country (doesn't stop most people from doing it anyway)
[deleted]

citrus7652
I'm from Austria but for example Germany (and maybe other European countries) have similar laws
ClubberLaing
Support the oil patch. Let her idle!
laboon
Wait what? Why?
citrus7652
you aren't allowed to cause any unnecessary noise or air contamination which includes warming up the engine (Austrian KfG §102 Abs. 4)
laboon
Do you can burn fuel to heat your house but not your car?
CymbalMonkee
Wisconsinite: start car > brush snow off car > do windows last; heat will have melted the iced-on shit making it easier to clear the windows
ChloeRed
UK: when we get snow, I brush the snow off, then start the car, and hit the "all heated windows on" button, and watch the ice melt
putsomemoneyonthecubbies
Chicagoan here. Yup. We would.
BeautifulWood
Yeah, this might have been staged
ShiftyBench
As someone who lives in Maine, heck yes. It would never get this far.
wongtonpoop
Joke really flew over your head and so many others.
AlaskanMatt
Yeah but stuff and things man...
WhoareyouWhoamI
Illegal to keep your car running to warm it up in Germany
DeflatedFootballsCantMeltBradysDreams
I don't think I've ever not started the car first. Defroster helps get the windows clear of ice.
TheNullUser
with my car if we get any ice/ alot of snow the door freezes shut, literally cant open the door without prying it open or heating it up
TheNullUser
So I cant start the car before clean it all off and its a old car, 95 camaro to be exact so no remote start on it
DriftJAK
Canadian here, can confirm. Also a fact that a snow brush/ice scraper sits in my back seat 10 months out of the year.
freezingpilot
Canadian here, I leave my scraper on the windshield outside so I don't have to dig around the passenger seat footwell for it in the mornig.
Omnissah
I keep that and a shovel year round. The bag of gravel hops in with the winter tires.
NateintheNorth
The other two it's just in the trunk, right? Mine is. I'm the US-flavor of Canadian. Or Canadian flavored US.
Ghost0fDawn
I'm not even Canadian and it turns out a Tennis racket works wonders for 4 inches of snow on your car.
Himser
how does it work on ice?
AsidRayne1245
I live in atlanta, and a ruler happens to work pretty well for a couole inches of snow
dieSchadenfreude
Wisconsin. Same.
NitherNor
Australian here, must be nice.
GravyEducation
Yeah I love the pro move with the wipers but anyone who doesn't have the scraper in the car wouldn't know that move
CanadianCobraChicken
Also Canadian. My window scraper never leaves the car.
MNDocJones
As your southern neighbor, with it snowing today, my scraper also never leaves the car.
VerdantRah
Michigander here, mine stays behind the passenger seat of my truck year round
kingkongmfg
Mount it to the inside of your bumper, that way you can brush off at least the drivers side and not get snow in the car when you open it.
VerdantRah
I keep a push broom in the bed for that, haha
SpaceSphere
Michigander here, passenger seat or back seat on the driver's side for me. I'm also tempting faith by having it in the trunk since last week
lanteror
A Finn here, mine never leaves the passenger seat. You never know when the winter is coming.
TastySammich
Tennessean here, we get maybe ten icy days a year and I feel it’s just good common sense to leave the ice scraper in the car.
Shitposting2017
Minnesotan here, it stays year round
GravyEducation
Damn straight son. Why would I bother taking it out?
jewhead
Albertan here. Carry a scraper and an extension cord everywhere.
eagleandy93
lol, I'm a Texan, and I have a snow brush too. Granted it only gets about 3 days of use a year, but still
AsaCanadianIagreeandIamsorry
Agreed!
CmfMttnPpl
Northern cali here can agree
CapnCocaine
Shuddup California!
EmeraldLight
North BC Canadian. 6 months of winter. Minimum.
GrampaJack
HA!
EmeraldLight
...your name made me squint... as I have a grandpa Jack...
GrampaJack
Call him up and say hi!
dingofdong
Heck, I'm from England where we only have maybe 20 icy days a year, and the ice scraper always lives in the driver's door pocket
WhatIsAnInternet
Only 20?? This year alone we've had like 20 :/
dingofdong
Fair point, there's been far too much snow already this year. We're embarassingly crap at dealing with it on a societal scale :P
WhatIsAnInternet
Yeah, I agree. I think it's mainly cause the people who learned how to drive in the past 5 years, never went to a car park to see how 1/2
