GTA

I went to USC 6 back in the day. A very big rave, in what is now the Century Link Events center.

There were 12 of us going, and we took 2 cars. I had decided to be the sober guy that night. No booze, no drugs. It was pretty fun, actually. Until...

My girlfriend started having a bad trip. She was never really a fan of crowds to begin with, and now she has 4,000 people around her, and she's high as fuck.

As a couple of us were trying to figure out what to do, my friend Odie (Not his real name, obviously) shows up. I ask him for a big favor. I need to borrow his car to take my girl back home. He says yes, but will need a ride back there after the rave. We confer with one of the drivers, and they agree to let him ride with them.

Cool. We're all set. He tells me the car is a VW Fox, on parking level 2. So, we walk up there, and look for the car. It's not there. I quickly run up the next 4 flights to find his car. It's nowhere.

I come back down, and suddenly, there it is. So, we get in, and go home. I remembered thinking, "When did Odie put Christmas lights in his car? Oh, well." We get home, and I decided that since we were no longer at the rave, I would do a home roll. Lots of fun. My girl and I had copious amounts of sex that night, and fell asleep.

I get woken up at 11:30 by Odie and my other buddy.

Odie: "Dude, where's my car?"

Me: "It's in the lower parking lot."

O: "No it's not."

I get up, and look out the window.

Me: "It's right there, see?"

O: "That's not my car, dude. Mine is a 4 door. That's a 2 door."


That's right. I had accidentally STOLEN A CAR.

Now, I'm not hungover, but still a  little groggy from the X. I get some clothes on, and we go out side.

O: "How did you even get it unlocked? We tried, and the key wouldn't turn."

I take the key from him, and unlock the door without a problem. Then climb inside, and start it up. Also, without a problem. Now, everyone is freaking out. I'm not awake yet, but I still have the ability to think clearly in the face of adversity.

I tell Odie to get in this car, and drive back down to the events center. My other buddy I tell to follow. When they get there, park it somewhere conspicuous, and look for his car. If his car is still there, bring it back home. If it's not, to bring Odie back home, and we'll report it stolen.

They do as they're told, and are gone for about an hour. When they come back, Odie tells me that his car was exactly where he told me it was. (Which is wrong, but whatever) We have a pretty uneventful rest of the day. Although my living room looked like Jonestown: The Morning After.
