Good thing you remembered to go back and let yourself in after you got in through the window!

Why are people assuming I was drunk?

In my excitement, I left my laptop and books outside, that's why.

Where was the party anyway, after all the fuss??

Party? I wish. I was studying :-(. And now, after all that effort to get to my bed, sleep eludes me.

SUCCESS!! This entire time, the living room window was not locked. I was walking round to the back of the house to knock on one of my flatmate's windows when I saw that it was slightly ajar, so I climbed in and opened the front door. I have to remember to always make sure it's open when I go out. Perfect. Now I never need to worry about my keys again.

Happy you're in but you should seriously consider going back to being a considerate flatmate school. Your flatmates are already sick of getting up at 4am to let you in because you don't bring your keys clubbing with you & now you're going to leave a downstairs window open so someone can climb in & knick their laptops & stuff?
I would let you in again -ever again -if that was the way you were prepared to treat me & my safety.

Null points for total inconsideration .

Ah you know, **** happens us all at sometime or other.It happened me a couple of times, i know i had a few beers on board after the Christmas party. Again rather than wake the Mrs up and recieve an ear bashing proceeded to climb in the open fly window at the back of the house. And yes, with all the racket i was making woke the Mrs who thought there ws a break in in progress and phoned the cops. Yep uv guessed it, picture and no sound for 2 weeks.
Look, all is well and there is no harm done. The main thing is Itwasntme is safe and sound and in her bed.

- she's already done this often enough so that she's antagonised her flatmates so much that they no longer will open the door for her. She now has a " full time" plan to leave her flatmates open to being burgled & have their stuff stolen because she can't be bothered to bring/remember her keys when she goes out. if she can remember to leave a bottom floor flat window open when they all go drinking surely she can in the same way prioritise to remember her keys? Laptops/phones/etc all left in the flat with the window sneekily being left open - hardly the kind of thing I suspect her flatmates would want -I mean, they don't leave the front door unlocked for her -why should she leave the back window open for them to suffer the consequences of?

I locked MYself out recently.. Long story short, the door wasn't locked to begin with

Itwasntme. · 17-05-2013 10:46AM

Again, I was NOT out drinking or clubbing or any of that. Thank you JustAthought for your thoughts but you couldn't be more wrong. I am a considerate flat mate. I don't simply 'neglect to bring my keys drinking', they have a habit of disappearing into thin air and it has nothing to do with alcohol since I am a very infrequent drinker.

I've only asked my flatmates to open the door for me twice before in the night. Most of the inconveniencing happens during the day. Lastly, I live on the college grounds and people leave doors open all the time with things lying around and nothing has ever been stolen. I doubt leaving a window slightly ajar would be as unsafe as you think it is.

Do you have a car?, at least you could have the heater on, and maybe get some sleep.

Just to introduce a brief word of warning to the thread - ***DO NOT DO THIS. EVER***

A few years ago my cousin did this one night after a party rather than drive home and was found dead in the car the next morning. He suffocated in his sleep due to the heater being on all night.

Apologies for putting a bit of a downer on the thread, but I felt it was worth warning people about the dangers of doing this.

Anyway, back on topic. OP, you need one of these. Or maybe several of them if this is a common occurrence.

Funny, as soon as I posted that I thought I should go back and change it to something not gender specific.

But, laziness.

Was he in a garage or something? Not sure how this could happen unless the car was in an enclosed area. That's if the engine was running, of course.

It was in the street. Don't know the exact layout of where it happened, it wasn't in this country.

There must be more to that story, you can't suffocate in a car, they're not airtight.
Either way I would always recommend getting into the car and putting on the heater over staying out in the cold all night. I think the fatality ratio between the two would speak for itself.

Chuck Stone · 17-05-2013 02:05PM

Hey Itwasntme, I got a solution for you.

Chekdis **** out.

It's the exhaust fumes seeping into the car that kill people. It's happened to truckers stuck in snow and ice.

Yeah but that's what I mean by there's more to this story, maybe the exhaust got blocked with snow or something, but he didn't just die because he was asleep with the heater on.

Sadly he did. As I said, it happened in another country, I don't know what sort of car it was, what the weather was like at the time or what the location was like except that he was found the next morning with the heater on and the engine wasn't running. Anyway, I'm not going to get into a big discussion about it, I merely posted a warning as to the possible consequences, people can heed it or not as they choose.

I do feel kind of hangover this morning. Maybe I got drunk on the night air and you guys were right after all.

That's tragic about your cousin Zaph.

But a car heater works using the heat from the engine?

Something's wrong there. Cars aren't airtight. That's why they sink in water even when the windows are up.

Pretty sure it could only have been exhaust fumes that killed him if it wasn't natural causes. People sleep in cars all the time. It would be a major design flaw if they were airtight and no doubt would lead to massive compensation for the bereaved.

Myth Busted.

Would you like to be a test subject?

Eh, sorry. Just realised the username with regards to the post but Zaph was good enough to disclose the circumstances of a relatives death. Even though a car isn't air tight, I'd say you could easily die from exhaust/fumes. Pump enough of anything in there and there wouldn't be enough circulation.
