Is it just me, or can women not shut the doors on the car proparly! I keep on explaining to the missus that she MUST close the door using the handle. Not the dam glass!!
Every dam day i have to clean the finger prints from that passenger side window. Is it just me?! Am i the only one who gets rather annoyed at this!
Pleaze tell me other guys out there have the same problem! Is their a cure??!!!

Double wammy with my misses... she not only uses the glass (due to the static shock she sometimes gets off the metal) but also slams the door shut the majority of the time.
BTW, I've been advised by several dealers that you want to avoid shutting the door via the glass as it can mis-align the windows.

get your revenge when in her car - especially effective at this time of year when the windscreen gets misted up - wipe it clean with your hands - the streakier the better.
When she complains just remind her of her own hands on glass antics.

I really understand you...guys..?
The old missus used to do that, ugly...
and her daughters were horrible...to...
But looking back, having a woman that steadily went 220km/h (about
130mph?) totally focused, with her daughters saying: mama drives more calm than you.... kind of brings a smile to your face..?
and the new missus, she´s totally sick...her dogs licking the stearing-wheel, jumping in my face,trying to catch the gas-pedal, or feeling lonely, needing love in the middle of...whatever! and she goes: "You cut that corner the wrong way, missed the apex"....bla...bla...******* old rallyb?tch...
(Used to be co-driver with a very good italian guy (national champion) that i try not to remember...;-))
Anyway, they mess up your cars...

In my first Scoob, wifey was really bad, but now we're in the sceond one, and she realises where all our money goes,(
) she alot more careful
The big problem is using my car as a dustbin [img]images/smilies/mad.gif[/img] This also includes my lovely daughter!!! After a family outing, I have to wipe my feet to get out into the street!!!
Women - can't live with 'em, can't chop 'em into tiny pieces and feed them to the dog.....
Dan
PS - LOL @ Greg G - you're SO dead when your missus reads thsi!!!
Still at least you got the wagon so she can see out!!!!
AndyUK300 - are you still based around Hereford? If so, drop me an email (addy in profile!)

My 1 year old son draws on the windows when he sees the condensation on them.
At least hr cant get that close to them because he licks the ones in the house. If I shout at him he cries and the wife shouts at me.
On a side note a teenage scumbag tried to steal the mates nextdoor neighbours car. He caught him beat him, put him in the car sat on him and closed the door on his hand.

!And for the love of God.... why did he sit on him?
Surely the beating and hand crushing were enough?

Stick some cling film over the glass on her side. Then after she gets out and closes the door make a big fuss of peeling the film off the glass "helmet visor tear-off stylee"!

Finger prints on the glass I can live with. What really gets me is when women close the doors with their house/car keys in their hands. The nice rattle of keys on paintwork sends shivers down your spine.
Of course, after a night out, I'm not going to bugger-up my chance of a sh@g over something like that

It aint just women who cant close doors without finger prints or slamming them! I have to remind HIM (my other half) about the fingerprints and door slamming all the time. HE does not understand the pain it causes me to see my car treated so badly. Hence he does not drive it very often as i dread to think what damage he could do!

Probably open a can of worms here but what the hell.
We are talking about Subaru Imprezas here (A MANS CAR). i'm sure the female community have sites for their FORD KA'S. LOL

Make her some mittens from polishing cloths and make her wear them when entering and exiting the car.
Similar invention, as employed by the Japanese, for cleaning the floors. Basically a suit for your baby to wear with polishing bits underneath. Whe the baby crawled around the floor they polished it at the same time.
Only in Japan.
