A Yugo driver stops next to a magnificent Rolls-Royce at a red light. You don’t often see a Yugo parked next to a Rolls-Royce, which is a pretty costly car. The driver of the Yugo, on the other hand, smiles, rolls down the window, and says to the driver of the Rolls, “Hey, buddy, that’s a nice car.” Do you have a phone in your Rolls? I have one in my Yugo!
The person driving the Rolls-Royce goes around in circles slowly, which makes it look like they’re having fun and maybe a little crazy. He says in a calm voice, “Yes, I have a phone.”
“Cool!” says the person in the Yugo with a smile. “Hey, is there a fridge in there?” My Yugo has a fridge in the back!
“Yes, I have a fridge,” admits the driver of the Rolls, but now he’s a bit angry.
“That’s great, man!” The person driving the Yugo is smiling. “Hey, is there a TV in there?” You do know that I have a TV in the back of my Yugo, right?
It’s evident now that the individual who owns the Rolls-Royce is going mad. “Of course I have a TV,” he says angrily. “Rolls-Royce is the best luxury car ever!”
The Yugo driver is still excited and comments, “What a cool car!” “Hey, do you also have a bed in there?” My Yugo has a bed in the back!
That was the last thing that happened. When the light turns green, the driver of the Rolls frowns and steps on the gas, moving toward the showroom. He can’t understand the idea of a Yugo, which is a car that people often make fun of since it’s simple and has more functions than his world-class luxury car.
The next day, the owner of the Rolls-Royce goes back to the dealership and asks for a custom bed to be put in the back of the car. And not just any bed; it has to be fit for a Rolls-Royce. It needs silk sheets, brass bedposts, and a great fit for the inside of the car. It’s too much. It’s just right. He finally feels like he’s ahead again.
He drives around town all day with his new gear seeking for the Yugo. The clock is ticking. Finally, he sees it stopped on the side of the road late at night, with foggy windows. He stops and taps on the cloudy window, which makes him feel fantastic. He knocks again. And again. Finally, the driver of the Yugo unlocks the door. He is damp and has a towel around his neck.
The driver of the Rolls says with a smile, “I now have a bed in the back of my car!”
“You woke me up from my shower for that?” says the person driving the Yugo.
And just when you thought the day couldn’t get any crazier, along comes another story, this one about a blonde, a vehicle crash, and a terrible mix-up with physics and gravity.
A blonde had just been in a severe accident. It looked like a bear had bent her car. But when the state police officer got there, she was standing close to the crash and was alright. She put her lipstick back on without saying a word.
The trooper was startled by how calm the woman was and how terribly the automobile was damaged. “It looks like an animal stomped on your car,” he remarked. Are you all right, ma’am?
“Yes, officer, I’m fine,” she said in a joyful voice.
The officer looked at the mess. “How did the crash happen?”
“It was so strange, officer!” She started. “This TREE appeared out of nowhere and blocked my path. I turned right, but there was another tree there! Then I went left and saw another one! I turned again and saw another tree! There was a tree everywhere I looked!
The officer tried to act like a professional, but he was biting his lip. In the end, he said, “Ma’am… For 30 miles, there are no trees along this road. That was your air freshener going back and forth.
Some stories tell us not to take ourselves or life too seriously. Laughter is often the finest fuel, especially when a Yugo driver tries to beat a Rolls-Royce or a puzzled motorist fights trees that aren’t actually there.
