How exactly does one unfreeze car doors? The doors unlock fine, but they won't freakin' open.

Isn't there this unfreezy stuff you can buy in a can? Get thee to the local hardware, o Flea!

I'm not even sure where I'd spray it, though--it's not the locks, and I dunno if I could get it into the latchy innards. Besides, I'm not walking anywhere today!

That bad, huh? Yikes!

i just tug on them until my fingernails break and i have a cussing fit. by that time they're usually ready to open.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I tugged on it, but they weren't budging, and it kinda felt like I was gonna break the handle off. :\ I think I'm gonna have to carjack someone.

uh oh!

Hairdryer + extension cord = unfrozen doors.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Strangely enough, I have none of those things. :( Perhaps I'll try to melt them open with my burning gaze.

[dichotomous.livejournal.com]

Ahahah! Perfect! And then you will take over the world!

Having the same problem at my house...I have both of those things, but there is no way I could get a cord long enough to run downstairs and out to the car in the driveway by the street. :(

Bah. Connecticut is for the birds.

You move back down south where that crazy shit doesn't happen.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Best suggestion yet.

[ozmaofoz.livejournal.com]

Amen.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Werd to that.

pee on it.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Don't think I haven't considered it.

I used to use rubbing alcohol. You have to pour it down the window and into the door edge, since the lock mechanism is inside the door. You can also try heating up your key once you have the ice off the lock and can get it in there.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Cool, I'll give it a shot in a bit. The weird thing is that the doors aren't covered in ice, but they still won't open.

[lemmons.livejournal.com]

Frozen door? What's that?

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I couldn't quite hear you. Speak louder next time.

[lemmons.livejournal.com]

We'll just be out back in the pool. Let me know how the unfreezing of the doors go.

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Nah, I'll never be able to get 'em unstuck now with all that coldness you just blew my way. :P

[lemmons.livejournal.com]

I win!

Hot hot water!

[wickedflea.livejournal.com]

Next time this happens, I'm just gonna set the bastard on fire.

Used to happen to me. Just go back to sleep.
