So she was expecting to be trapped in a hot car for only 24 minutes?

Stupid people are stupid, in other news, water is wet.

Actually I suspect she's not stupid,  but is a liar, and saw a chance to get TikTok famous and went for it.

Teslas cutting 10% of it's workforce
Tesla is reporting it first decline in sales in nearly 4 years.
and did any one hear about an arson attack while is mentioned in the article on one of it's factories?

'There is nothing I hate more': How Elon Musk delivered news that 10% of Tesla's global workforce of 140,000 would be axed to keep the EV maker 'lean and hungry for the next growth cycle'

Yeah. Nothing says expanding production more than eliminating 10% of the work force.

Not the Babylon Bee

Pro tip: Do not update your Teslas's software while sitting in a parking lot in the hot sun.
Then says she was stuck in the car the whole time despite them having manual door handles.  :facepalm:


Tesla owner left horrified after getting stuck in her car as temperature hits 103 degrees when she tried to update its software in Chick-fil-A parking lot

She saw a chance to get TikTok famous by showing how stupid she is.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Can anyone explain to me how using the manual door release to manually release the door could in any way damage the car?

Just looking at her photo you can see that the two brain cells she has are lonely, and not likely to ever meet up to create a coherent thought.
