This actually happened last weekend.

It was really cold here last weekend and even colder in some parts of Texas. A couple left here to go to a memorial service over in Texas and at the campground they stayed in the temperature never got over freezing. When they left to go to the service they noticed a car on the other side of the campground left running with both doors open. They noted it as being strange, but didn't have time to investigate. When they returned two hours later the car was still running with the doors open so they went to investigate. As they got closer they saw the end of a sewer hose sticking out both sides of the car. The guy had left his water hose connected but said, "what the heck the park is paying the water bill" and so he let the water trickle in his rig all night and now he was trying to use his car's heater to thaw a completely frozen water hose out and since he didn't want the result in his car he was leaving the doors open so it could drain. Proof once again, you just can't fix stupid.

What an, uhh, "inovative" (?) way to thaw a sewer hose. Wonder how much that cost him in gas? With both doors open I can't imagine the temp inside the vehicle rising much with it that cold.

Some people just have ZERO common sense! Down here we say they couldn't wipe their a$$ with both hands.

I can't imagine how this person even imagined this could work. The only thing this person has going for them is imagination, but NO common sense.

It may have worked IF he had closed the doors until they touched the hose coming in and going out the other side BUT one never knows what others think or can conger up in their minds. Just think THEY VOTE TOO!
